With the latest high-power Power over Ethernet delivering more than 71W, the potential for this technology is rapidly expanding. As well as smart building / IoT sensors, VoIP services and IP cameras, PoE can power point-of-sale equipment, lights, AV systems, window blinds and laptops.
PoE is an inherently safe technology with failsafes and checks built-in. This means legacy equipment can be combined on the same network as the latest technology without fear of equipment damage. Upgrades and reconfigurations can be made with a minimum of disruption, without having to affect other areas of the network, and without having to involve costly electrical engineering specialists.
Time and cost savings - by reducing the time and expense of having electrical power cabling installed. Network cables do not require a qualified electrician to fit them, and can be located anywhere.
Device flexibility - No need for electrical outlet tethering , devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points can be located wherever they are needed most, and re-positioned easily if required.
Reliability - PoE comes from a central and universally compatible source, rather than a collection of distributed wall adapters. It can be backed-up through uninterruptible power supply, or controlled to easily disable or reset devices.
Real time analytics - Offering information sharing from IP-enabled devices, enabling the two communication between devices and a central location.
Control - PoE cabling allows ensures devices can be controlled and managed remotely.
Smart - PoE delivery is intelligent and protects network equipment from overload, under powering, or incorrect installation.
Safety - The PoE standard incorporates measures to ensure its safe operation, both to protect legacy equipment from damage and to protect users from the hazards of electrical power.
