CONT: Cable test functions
POWER: Voltage and current measurement between the PSE and the PD and calculation of the
power consumption
LOOP: Perform loop back test
SET: Setting of language, backlight time, automatic power-off, display contrast and display

3.2 PoE switch test
Connect a network cable between the PoE switch and the PCE-POE 10 (RJ45 connection 2, see
above). The correct connection is signalled by means of the measured voltage on the display of
the PCE-POE 10. Press "Enter" to start the test. The result is then displayed on the screen.
3.2.1 Standard PoE switch:
If the PoE switch being tested is a standard PoE switch, the test result is displayed as follows:

3.2.2 Non-standard PoE switch:
If the PoE switch being tested is a non-standard PoE switch, the test result is displayed as follows:
3.2.3 Connect Error
If the error message "Connect Error" appears, it is possible that additional POE end devices are
connected to the POE switch to be tested. Disconnect the cable connection of these devices
and repeat the test.
3.2.4 Unconnected
If the error message "Unconnected" appears on the display, no compatible POE switch has
been detected.

3.3 PoE power test
For the PoE power test, a PoE switch and a PoE end device device (e. g. PoE camera) must be
connected to the PCE-POE 10. After successful connection, a voltage value is displayed on the
screen. A few seconds later, the meter automatically switches to the power test. The display
information is shown in the following picture.
As soon as all measured power parameters are displayed, you can start the identification of the
PSE by pressing the Enter key. If the message "Non Standard" appears on the display, the
connected PSE does not comply with the current standards; if no message appears on the
display, the connected PSE complies with the current standards.
3.4 Cable test functions
This function can be used to find short circuits, open and crossed wire pairs in the connected
network cable. To do this, connect the network cable to be tested to the RJ45 connector 4 and
the receiver supplied to the other end of the cable.
The connected network cable can be an 8-core UTP or a 9-core STP network cable.
If the cables are intact, one of the following screens will appear on the PCE-POE 10:
3.4.1 Short circuit
If a short circuit is detected in the connected cable, the following appears on the display of the
PCE-POE 10 (example):
(Wires 1&2 and 4&5 are short-circuited)

3.4.2 Open wire pairs
If the PCE-POE 10 detects open wire pairs in the connected network cable, the following screen
is displayed (example):
(cores 5 and 8 are open)
3.4.3 Crossed wire pairs
If crossed wire pairs are detected in the connected network cable, the following appears on the
display of the PCE-POE 10 (example):
(cores 1&8 and 5&6 are crossed)
3.4.4 Cable open
If the message "Cable open" appears on the display of the PCE-POE 10, this may be due to the
following reasons:
1. The connected network cable actually has a breakage.
2. The connected network cable is not correctly connected to the transmitter.
3. The connected network cable is not correctly connected to the receiver.

3.5 Power test function
This function can be used to measure the power consumption of the PSE or PD. To do so, use
sockets 7 and 8 on the right-hand side of the PCE-POE 10. The mains adaptor of the PSE or
PD is connected to the "DC IN" input and the PSE or PD itself to the "DC OUT" output.
3.6 Loop-back test
The loop-back test can be used to test individual ports on a switch or end device. The PCE-POE
10 sends data packets and attempts to receive them again at the same time. If the test is
successful, the status LEDs on the port to be tested light up. Connect a network cable to the loop-
back connector of the PCE-POE 10 and to the port to be tested.
3.7 Lighting function
Press the light key to switch the LED on or off.

4 Warranty
You can read our warranty terms in our General Business Terms which you can find here:
https://www.pce-instruments.com/english/terms.
5 Disposal
For the disposal of batteries in the EU, the 2006/66/EC directive of the European Parliament
applies. Due to the contained pollutants, batteries must not be disposed of as household waste.
They must be given to collection points designed for that purpose.
In order to comply with the EU directive 2012/19/EU we take our devices back. We either re-use
them or give them to a recycling company which disposes of the devices in line with law.
For countries outside the EU, batteries and devices should be disposed of in accordance with
your local waste regulations.
If you have any questions, please contact PCE Instruments.
