TRENDnet's POE provides power as well as data over existing LAN cabling

Torrance , CA – February 14, 2005 –TRENDnet, a leading manufacturer of networking products worldwide, today announced its NEW Power over Ethernet product line. TRENDnet’s Power over Ethernet (POE) products will allow Voice over IP phones, Wireless Access Points, IP Cameras, and many other appliances to receive power as well as data over existing LAN cabling, without needing to modify the existing Ethernet infrastructure.

Structured cabling is the foundation of all today’s data networks. Almost all appliances require both data connectivity and power supply. With Power over Ethernet technology, only one set of wires is needed to install to your device. Power and data is integrated onto the same cable, supporting category 5/5e. This will simply installation, saves space and reduce cost.

TRENDnet’s POE product complies with IEEE 802.3af standards. In case of power surges or outages, the POE switches support auto disconnections for over and under voltages. Advanced features include auto-sensing algorithm, power detection and classifications, and short circuit protection.
