1. Einleitung
The TRENDnet TC-NTP1 Inline PoE Tester is a compact tool designed for network professionals. It provides accurate testing for various Power over Ethernet (PoE) technologies, including 4PPoE, PoE+, PoE, and passive PoE. This device operates inline between a PoE source (PSE) and a PoE device (PD), offering real-time data on wattage, Bdtage und amperage. It is compatible with IEEE 802.3af/at/bt PoE devices up to 100W and non-standard passive PoE devices ranging from 11V to 60V.
2. Hauptmerkmale
- PoE Technology Support: Tests 4PPoE, PoE+, PoE, and passive PoE.
- Echtzeitüberwachung: Zeigt an, wastage, Bdtage und amperage of the connected PoE device.
- Multiple Testing Modes: Includes T-mode for PSE device testing, N-mode for non-standard passive PoE, and I-mode for inline PoE testing.
- Benutzerfreundliche Bedienung: Battery-free design for immediate use.
- Kompatibilität: Supports IEEE 802.3af/at/bt PoE devices up to 100W and passive PoE from 11V – 60V.
- Step Button Functionality: Allows cycling through and locking display readouts for voltage, amperage und wattage.
- Gigabit-Anschlüsse: Equipped with one Gigabit port for PSE connection and one Gigabit port for PoE device connection.
- NDAA-konform: Suitable for government networking solutions (U.S. and Canada Only).

5. Einrichtung
- Ensure the TC-NTP1 is free from any physical damage.
- The device is battery-free and ready for use upon connection. No external power source is required for its operation.
- Identify the Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) and the Powered Device (PD) in your network setup.
6. Bedienungsanleitung
6.1. Anschließen des Testers
- Connect the Ethernet cable from your PoE source (e.g., PoE switch or injector) to the PSE port on the TC-NTP1.
- Schließen Sie ein Ethernet-Kabel vom PD port on the TC-NTP1 to your PoE device (e.g., IP camera, access point).
- The TC-NTP1 will automatically power on and begin displaying information.
6.2. Testmodi
The TC-NTP1 offers three distinct testing functions:
- T-mode (PSE Device Testing): This mode is used to determine the PoE type and voltage output of your Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), such as a PoE switch or injector. Connect the PSE directly to the tester's PSE port.
- N-mode (Non-Standard Passive PoE Devices): Designed for testing non-standard passive PoE devices. This mode supports devices with voltage reicht von 11V bis 60V.
- I-mode (PoE Inline Testing): For real-time monitoring, connect the tester inline between the PSE and the Powered Device (PD). This mode displays the voltage, amperage und wattage being delivered to the connected PD.
6.3. Using the Step Button
Der SCHRITT button on the TC-NTP1 allows you to cycle through the displayed readouts (voltage, amperage und wattage). Pressing the button repeatedly will switch between these values. You can also press and hold the button to lock the display on a specific readout for continuous monitoring.

8. Fehlerbehebung
- Kein Display/Stromanschluss: Ensure the PoE source is active and providing power. The TC-NTP1 is battery-free and draws power from the PoE connection. Verify the Ethernet cables are properly connected and functional.
- Falsche Messwerte: Double-check that the cables are securely connected to the correct PSE and PD ports. Ensure the PoE source and device are compatible with the tester's supported standards.
- Device Not Powering On (PD): If the PoE device connected to the PD port is not powering on, use T-mode to test the PSE directly to confirm it is supplying power correctly. Then, use I-mode to check the inline power delivery.
- Polarity Issues: The tester indicates polarity. If a "REV" (Reverse Polarity) LED illuminates, there may be an issue with the PoE source or cabling.
9. Wartung
- Reinigung: Reinigen Sie das Gerät mit einem weichen, trockenen Tuch. Verwenden Sie keine flüssigen oder Aerosol-Reinigungsmittel.
