Summary:
Since the early twentieth century engineers have sought to deliver both power and data with the same cables. This trend continued into the computer age with high data rates and power hungry but sensitive equipment. In 2003, Power over Ethernet (PoE) was standardized with the IEEE 802.3af working group. Additional working groups have since increased sourced power to 90W with up to 10G data rates and expanded into Single-pair Power over Ethernet (SPoE). Analog Devices has been involved with these standards from the very beginning and was first to market for IEEE 802.3bt and IEEE 802.3cg solutions. This presentation will review PoE as a technology as well as highlight market trends and discuss Analog Device’s participation with IEEE 802.3 standards.
