Perpetual PoE on C2960XR-24PD-I

[AJ_YYZ]

This is my first post here so hello world!

Trying to setup perpetual PoE on C2960XR-24PD-I (White pages says its supported) but the command doesn't seem to be present in the iOS build that I have installed on it. CCP 1.8 shows the option to enable perpetual PoE but setting it up in CCP fails due to the command not being there in iOS

Switch: C2960XR-24PD-I

Firmware: 15.2(7)E2             C2960X-UNIVERSALK9-M

Is there an image I can install that supports perpetual PoE on this switch?

do I need to enable that feature somehow?

am I wrong to assume that this switch supports perpetual PoE?

Does it require secondary Power Supply to it to work? (I only have one power supply in there)

switch(config-if)#power inline port perpetpual-poe-ha
                                    ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

see this IOS 15 document

table Supported Hardware for Perpetual POE, Fast POE and 2-event reports only 3850 models no 2960

[pieterh]

this document says it is available for the C2960XR  platform

Cisco Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-XR Series Switches feature:

     PoE+ support with a power budget of up to 740W and Perpetual PoE

us the inline help: "switch(config-if)#power inline port ? "

to check if either perpetual of poe-ha individually is available on this switch
