PoE is Power over Ethernet, a method of delivering electrical power and data over the same network cable.
Example of PoE
A managed network can support streaming video, cameras, touchscreens, access points, control processors, and guest Wi-Fi without overloading one router. In that kind of Davis networking project, the term PoE would describe power over Ethernet, a method of delivering electrical power and data over the same network cable. Davis would use that understanding to account for router, switch, and access point placement, wired backhaul, guest access, and device reliability, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
