8.3.11 VSS

VSS is the PoE input-power return side. It is the reference for the PoE interface circuits, and has a current-limited hotswap switch that connects it to RTN. VSS is clamped to a diode drop above RTN by the hotswap switch. The PAD_S exposed thermal pad is internally connected to VSS pin. This pad must be connected to VSS pin to ensure proper operation.
