Industry Background

The growing trend of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and IoT has laid pressure on the enterprise LAN infrastructure to meet high connectivity demands. Earlier, the enterprises used to deploy a separate cable for power and data transmission, which resulted in huge operational & maintenance costs. To reduce the expenditure, they started using PoE-based cabling infrastructure, enabling the use of a single Ethernet cable for both data and power transmission. The demand for PoE solutions is expected to increase over the forecast timeline as it eliminates the need to install additional cables or power outlets at every endpoint, thus bringing a lot of convenience in home, offices, and industrial environments.
