What is POE & how to chose right cable for POE?

Zion Communication will give professional answer for you.

 

POE, referred to as Power-over-Ethernet (often referred to as PoE) is a technology which provides electrical power over standard Ethernet cables

(Cat5e,cat6 or similar:https://www.zion-communication.com/network-cable-products-catalog.html)

in most cases providing the power delivery simultaneously with the data signals sent from one device to another.

As an example, a CCTV camera would normally require both data cable and an external power supply - from two separate cables.However, a PoE enabled camera will receive both data and power over the same network cable from a network / PoE switch or from the system's NVR.Therefore reducing time and cost.

 

 


What are the benefits of using PoE?

· Saves time - by not having to have electrical power cabling installed and not needing a qualified electrician to fit network cables, a person simply finds the right location for the device, installs the device and adds to the network via an Ethernet connection, saving both time and installation costs.

· Flexibile - as it does not have to be attached to an electrical outlet, devices such as CCTV devices and wireless access points can be placed  wherever they are needed most, and easily repositioned anytime if required. 

· Safe - Power over Ethernet usually uses 48V DC, which is classified as a safe voltage by the UL Standards. PoE also has built-in safety features, such as if there is an interruption in the connection, the PSE automatically stops sending power, and starts a handshaking process before sending power again. Meaning if there is damage to a cable, for example fraying, the power is stopped.

· Reliable - PoE power comes from a central and 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.

 


What devices use PoE?

As technology moves us further and further into the internet of things (smart devices and IP connectivity), the range of products and equipment that is powered via PoE continues to increase. For example, PoE devices include:

· IP Telephones - Voice-over-IP (VoIP) phones are connected via a single network cable, taking both data and power from the network switch

· IP CCTV cameras - IP cameras are now the industry standard throughout the world, ensuring fast, easy installation, set-up and control and small to large scale security systems

· IP Intercoms - Door Intercom systems are in effect 'armoured telephones' and therefore work in exactly the same way, transmitting data (video, sound and control) and power signals over the same network cable

· IP Speakers - Audio-over-IP is the latest generation of professional distributed sound systems for music and public address, where the entire audio system is connected via LAN / WAN networks. This allows the IP speakers to be connected via a single (Ethernet) cable including PoE

· IP Access Control - Bluetooth, RFID and biometric access control points similarly are connected over a network, transmitting simultaneous data and power over the same single cable
