OrangePi Zero powering

Hi,

I would like to know how the PoE on the OrangePi Zero works.
Is it IEEE 802.3af (or IEEE 802.3at) or just "unused pairs powering" ? How to "enable" the PoE function ?

How much power may I provider to the board ?

Thanks.

Hi friend, you could refer to the attached file about how to use POE function.
If use USB OTG, power supply is normally like we used.

Hello,

Can someone explain to me ... the use of the " 0 ohm" resistor ?
Is it only to create a link b/w power supply and the board power lines ?

Thanks

Yes, the "0 ohm resistor" is simple bridge, which could be easily soldered. Also, it could be used as a jumper.0 ohm resistor could be easily made, but also, you can buy it - they look like usual smd resistor, but with "0" on it.

Laurent, better check linux-sunxi wiki page for the OPi Zero and the respective thread in Armbian forum (even if you're still using solely Gentoo ;) )
