     16=== Power Gblade over active PoE
    1717Isolated 802.3at 1GbE active PoE is supported on the bottom 1GbE Ethernet port. The Gateworks GW10144 802.3at PoE power supply/inserter can be used to power individual units and/or during development. See link here for info on GW10144:
    1818[https://tsi.tyconsystems.com/doc/SpecSheets/TP-POE+10G__53V_30W_10GB_PoE_Inserter_Spec_Sheet.pdf Tycon Inserter]. Typical power consumption is around 10-13W without any additional cards plugged into the NVME socket. For rackmount applications a 802.3at PoE switch is recommended. To use the 10GbE port for PoE powering the device, please contact Gateworks Sales.

     23=== Serial Console Access
    2424Once the unit is powered, the GBlade serial console can be accessed through the type C USB port through a cable to a desktop/laptop PC. The serial console uses an industry standard FTDI FT2232HQ USB to Serial/JTAG converter IC and will show up as a /dev/ttyUSBx device in Linux and can be accessed through a terminal program with the baud rate of 115,200. For other operating systems, such as Windows, virtual COM port (VCP) drivers can be found here: [https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/ Link].
