Product Information
Full details
The HP Poly Power Kit for the Trio 8500 conference phone is for users needing to power their Trio 8500 in locations without direct PoE (Power over Ethernet) support. Its key benefit is providing reliable power through an included mid-span injector, overcoming the limitation of non-PoE network ports. A potential caveat is the need for an additional power outlet for the injector itself.

FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this power kit?
This power kit is designed to provide power to the HP Poly Trio 8500 conference phone when the network port or switch it connects to does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Does this kit support my Poly Trio 8500?
Yes, this power kit is specifically designed for and compatible with the HP Poly Trio 8500 conference phone.
What type of Ethernet connection does it support?
It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet connections, ensuring full Gigabit network speed.
Do I need a special switch for this to work?
No, this kit is designed for deployments where you do *not* have a PoE-enabled switch. It injects power via a mid-span injector that connects between your non-PoE network port and the phone.
What is the power output of the injector?
The power injector has an output of 56V at 30W.
Can I use this power kit outside of the UK?
The injector itself supports a universal input voltage of 100-240V. However, the included power cord is a UK plug. For use in other regions, you would need to supply a compatible power cord for the injector.
What happens if my network port *is* PoE?
If your network port or switch is already PoE-enabled, you do not need this power kit. You can connect the Poly Trio 8500 directly to the PoE port.
Troubleshooting
Poly Trio 8500 does not power on.
Verify that all Ethernet cables are securely connected at both ends. Ensure the power injector is plugged into a working wall outlet and that the UK power cord is firmly attached to the injector. Check that the network port being used is indeed not PoE and that the injector is functioning correctly.
Slow network performance on the Trio 8500.
Confirm that the Ethernet cables used are rated for Gigabit speeds (e.g., Cat 5e or Cat 6). Ensure the injector's ports are clean and that no kinks or damage are present on the cables. Test the network connection without the injector to rule out other network issues.
Intermittent power loss to the Trio 8500.
Check the power connection to the injector and the wall outlet for any looseness. Inspect the power cord and Ethernet cables for damage. Ensure the power injector is not overheating; if it is, ensure it has adequate ventilation.
