| ETHERNET DEVICES |
Power over Ethernet (PoE) provides power to devices over existing LAN cabling, without updating or modifying the network infrastructure. Power over Ethernet removes the necessity of placing network devices next to power sources. Power over Ethernet can be used with:
■IP Phones
■Wireless Access Points
■IP Gateways
■PDAs
■Audio and video remote monitoring
Powered Devices are devices which receive power from the device power supplies, for example IP phones. Powered Devices are connected to the device via Ethernet ports.
