Which technology allows for the transmission of electrical power over standard UTP network cables, eliminating the need for a separate power source for devices like IP phones and wireless access points?
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that enables standard Ethernet cables to transmit both data and electrical power to compatible devices. This is particularly useful for powering devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras, as it simplifies installation and reduces the need for nearby power outlets. EtherChannel is a link aggregation technology used to combine multiple physical links into a single logical link. Powerline Communication (PLC) sends data over electrical wiring, which is the inverse of PoE. Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is a storage networking protocol used to encapsulate Fibre Channel frames over Ethernet networks.
