Why Use POE?

Specifying Power over Ethernet brings many advantages to an installation:
 
Time and cost savings – by reducing the time and expense of having electrical power cabling installed. Network cables do not require a qualified electrician to fit them, and can be located anywhere.
 
Flexibility – without being tethered to an electrical outlet, devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points can be located wherever they are needed most, and repositioned easily if required.
 
Safety – POE delivery is intelligent, and designed to protect network equipment from overload, underpowering, or incorrect installation.
 
Reliability – POE power comes from a central and universally compatible source, rather than a collection of distributed wall adapters. It can be backed-up by an uninterruptible power supply, or controlled to easily disable or reset devices.
 
Scalability – having power available on the network means that installation and distribution of network connections is simple and effective.
