The disable  "active" option in the Power over Ethernet (PoE) settings of Zyxel switches allows administrators to manually disable the power supply to connected PoE devices on specific ports. When the switch 'port is set to inactive, the switch will not send the signal to detect PD, and also not deliver power.
