Power over Ethernet (PoE)

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that enables both electrical power and data to be transmitted simultaneously over a single standard Ethernet cable, typically using twisted-pair copper wires. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies or electrical outlets for network devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.

The Ultimate Guide to Power over Ethernet (PoE)

Twenty years ago Ethernet cabling carried bits alone; anything that needed electrons—telephones, access points. Today the same four twisted pairs deliver both gigabits and up to 90 watts of DC across ninety metres, turning structured cabling into a low-voltage power grid. The shift has re-shaped building design. Read more here.
