The main advantage of Power over Ethernet is that you do not require a separate power supply cable and so can install Ethernet devices in hard to reach places or in areas where there is not sufficient room for many cables. This means that you can save some significant installation costs, and that you can also integrate the power supply into a central uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to improve the reliability of the connected devices. PoE is used by network devices that need small amounts of power. It is typically used for IP telephones, network cameras, operating panel or wireless communications devices like WLAN access points.
