How to Upgrade to POE

Adding POE to your network is straightforward, and there are two routes you can

choose:

A POE switch is a network switch that has Power over Ethernet injection

built-in. Simply connect other network devices to the switch as normal, and the

switch will detect whether they are POE-compatible and enable power automatically.

POE switches are available to suit all applications, from low-cost unmanaged edge

switcheswith a few ports, up to complex multi-port rack-mounted units with

sophisticated management.

A midspan (or POE injector) is used to add POE capability to regular non-POE

network links. Midspans can be used to upgrade existing LAN installations to POE,

and provide a versatile solution where fewer POE ports are required. Upgrading

each network connection to POE is as simple as patching it through the midspan, and

as with POE switches, power injection is controlled and automatic.

Midspans are available as multi-port rack-mounted units or low-cost single-port

injectors.
