The CP2 USB Expander can be powered by a standard PoE injector, or a
P-Link connection.
Set the Power Select switch towards P-Link In or PoE In based on the
power source.
The P-Link In and Out ports enable you to connect with a CP2 unit or
other P-Link devices. P-Link connections carry power, control, and audio
through CAT5e or CAT6 cable.
When not supplying power to an expander via a P-Link connection,
