	Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology for hard wired Ethernet LAN’s (Local Area Networks) that allows power to flow along the CAT5e cable (the minimum cable type) that would normally be reserved for data signals only. A standard (802.3af) was established by the IEEE in 2003 that specified a 15.4 W maximum power delivery (12.95 W at the end device) using two pairs of wires in the CAT5e cable. This was then uprated to 30 W (802.3at) but there are propriety offerings that boast 60 W by using all 4 pairs of wires in the Ethernet cable.
