Power over Ethernet FAQ: Designing, implementing and managing PoE

With the Ethernet’s overwhelming success in the networking world, Power over Ethernet (PoE) has emerged as a preferred technology for delivering remote power to connected devices. As more networked devices—such as IP security cameras, Wi-Fi access points, in-building wireless, building management systems, and LED lighting—begin using remote powering, the opportunity to save on infrastructure costs by powering them over existing structured cabling continues to grow. CommScope contributes to the development of new cabling standards based on bundle size recommendations through its extensive work on modeling and building physical cable bundles subject to a variety of power and environmental conditions.
