Technically Speaking
Electricity has a low frequency of 60 Hz or less, and data transmis-
sions have frequencies that can range from 10 million to 100
million Hz.
There are two types of devices involved in PoE configurations:
Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) and Powered Devices (PD).
PSEs, which include end-span and mid-span devices, provide
power to PDs over the Ethernet cable. An end-span device is often
a PoE-enabled network switch that’s designed to supply power
directly to the cable from each port. The setup would look some-
thing like this:
Power over Ethernet (PoE).
The seemingly universal network connection, twisted-pair
Ethernet cable, has another role to play, providing electrical power
to low-wattage electrical devices. Power over Ethernet (PoE)
was ratified by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE) in June 2000 as the 802.3af-2003 standard. It defines the
specifications for low-level power delivery—roughly 13 watts at
48 VDC—over twisted-pair Ethernet cable to PoE-enabled devices
such as IP telephones, wireless access points, Web cameras, and
audio speakers.
A mid-span device is inserted between a non-PoE device and
the network, and it supplies power from that juncture. Here is a
rough schematic of that setup:
The way it works is simple: Ethernet cable that meets CAT5
LPD100A
(or better) standards consists of four twisted pairs of cable,
and PoE sends power over these pairs to PoE-enabled devices.
Power injectors, a third type of PSE, supply power to a specific
point on the network while the other network segments remain
without power.
PDs are devices like switches, surveillance cameras, sensors,
wireless access points, and any other devices that operate on PoE.
In one method, two wire pairs are used to transmit data,
and the remaining two pairs are used for power. In the other
method, power and data are sent over the same pair.
When the same pair is used for both power and data,
the power and data transmissions don’t interfere with each other.
Because electricity and data function at opposite ends of the
frequency spectrum, they can travel over the same cable.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
LPD100A
LPD101A
• Use one set of twisted-pair wires for both data and power.
• Save money by eliminating the need to run electrical wiring.
• Quickly set up a temporary workgroup.
• If your LAN is protected from power failure by a UPS, the PoE PD
Switches connected to your LAN are also protected from power
failure.
