PoE Data Center usage question

Planning out my PoE from my network equipment with adding additional cameras for my home. I’m planning on running my Data Center with PoE as well, but I can’t seem to find anything that states what sort of draw to expect from the Data Center. Does anyone know the normal and max powerdraw for PoE?

Not much. Yarbo working a zone currently

It uses POE+ as Ryan has shown. It doesn’t draw near that amount of power but at boot or under load it could draw more than at idle. Still nowhere near the spec max though.

Thanks for the feedback. It’ll be tight, but I might be able to make it work. Between my two devices, Dream Machine SE and Standard 24 POE switch, I’ll have just 2W left on the Dream Machine and 12.5W left on the switch before putting this up. Thankfully I’ll have 12.95W additional on the switch most of the time as that’s for one of my floodlights. Since it doesn’t run full time it shouldn’t be enough to put me over. So it sounds like if everything is going at once at startup I might have issues, but overall it’s unlikely and I should be fine. Just maybe tight at times.

Thanks for the information!

Here’s mine. Port 10 in the screen capture. Not much power draw at all. But a little interesting to see that it’s only 100bt.
