Power Over Ethernet (PoE) is an evolving technology designed to
simultaneously deliver power and transmit data through an Ethernet
cable. Modeling after the technology used in telecommunication
systems which supplies power to telephones, PoE powers network
device without the need of AC electrical outlets. By eliminating the
power cords and the power infrastructure, the technology greatly
simplifies the wiring and deployment matters and brings lots of
convenience and benefits in home, office, and industrial
environments.
