Power over Ethernet (PoE) - Explained

Get Deeper Connect Air (affiliate) bit.ly/deeperair
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that delivers DC power to networking devices such as IP phones, security cameras, and wireless access points, over the copper wires in an Ethernet cable, which eliminates the need for a separate power cable.

product related question: if you are sharing your IP address with others who may be bad actors, could that get your IP address banned from certain services, or at least make it look like you are the one doing bad?

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

@lawsonott3 Good question. Check out this link deeper-network-inc.gitbook.io/deeper-connect-knowledge-base/faq/security/security-concerns

@PowerCertAnimatedVideos Just discovered your channel and I really enjoy your educational videos. Btw thanks for the link! I purchased the Deeper Connect Air and Mini add-on. Both look like great products. Hope you get a good payout :)

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

@shanemonstuh Thanks, I appreciate your comment and your purchase of the Deeper Connect Air.

As a network engineer, I can confirm everything in this video is correct. They are well researched. I would only add that if you're looking to buy a PoE injector, that you carefully read what the product is and what standards it follows and look into if it's active or passive. Just like how different switches have different capabilities, so too will PoE injectors. Also be aware that PoE splitters are a thing too and can often look like PoE injectors so carefully read the product labels and specs when buying. They don't add power to an Ethernet connection, they only split the power already on the line up to be able to power more devices. I personally never saw a need for PoE splitters in 20+ years of working on networks and if any time I needed more PoE ports, I would just put in another switch or replace existing switches with bigger switches, but since PoE splitters exist, it's something to know about so you don't buy the wrong thing.

[@Heizenberg32]

As an installer my solution is simple: Do not use passive PoE! Do not buy them, or even manufacture them, except for specific use cases and are clearly marked as such. Even then, mistakes will happen. Even if the injector is plastered with warnings to not plug in your laptop to it: The far end of the cable won't be.

[@Vooker525]

Question. How does IP phone get data and power from one pair only? Because in my organisation it does

[@gwgux]

@@Vooker525 The only type of phone I know that does that is a traditional analog phone, not an IP phone. For all IP phones I've worked with on a network, they've always used the same two data pairs as a PC would for 100Mb Ethernet leaving the other two pairs for PoE, or like for our 1Gb phones, they use all 4 pairs for both data and power at the same time as described in this video. If I had to guess, you may have something that runs similar to DSL where data is sent down a phone line and it still has it's own current like a regular phone like would. Usually analog business phones have two or three pair phone lines for circuit switching, putting people on hold, etc. (the reason why a desk phone could have someone on hold while talking on another line) switching and may even have a display, but those are still not IP phones.

[@gwgux]

@@Heizenberg32 You're exactly right. Avoid passive PoE like the plague. It's rather replace the weird finicky powered device that needs passive PoE than use it. It's not worth the hassle.

[@Vooker525]

@@gwgux My bad. Checked again, it uses 2 pairs. 123 and 6 pins. So my guess is 10mbit with PoE. Phone is modern Yealink, with internal web interface and other stuff

You are the only one that when explain something ... My brain doesn't explode from too many complicated explanation ... Well done sir💪🏾

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

Glad to hear that

[@DucatiGTS]

You literally have the BEST no nonsense, right to the point videos I have ever seen. Your method of explaining things is awesome! You do not over-explain it, you just lay things out in a very solid common sense way. Thank you! You've truly helped me grow in knowledge!

[@JerseyJeff84]

I've learned more from this channel for free(Other than paying to be a channel member for the past year) than I have for the $5,000 I spent to get an I.T. support degree from a local college. Kudos to you for making I.T. enjoyable and easy to learn.

[@DezzarTac]

I didn't know this channel was still active; I honestly thought it was abandoned a while ago! Thank you for all your hard work!

[@freedomfighter3486]

This channel has been helping me when I was in college and now working in IT.

[@Mister6]

Great video! I've been working with PoE technology since its emergence and it's rare to find such a comprehensive and concise explanation. I particularly like that you touched on passive PoE devices. Though old and rare, they do still exist (mainly running older building equipment). Just a year or so ago I had someone try to daisy-chain one of those through a modern PoE switch that we had just installed and ended up cooking $5k of hardware!

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

Glad it was helpful!

[@michaelduke4500]

I love the way you explain things in your vids; also the animation is a huge help.

[@MikeKranidis]

Fantastic video as always! Only one misconception exist: in GigaBit network, all 4 pairs are used. This is not mentioned in the video leaving the audience with the impression that only 4 wires are used in Ethernet connection.

[@Heizenberg32]

Right! How they manage to get data and power over the same pairs simulator is something I have always wondered about!

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

They could do phantom power, like the audio engineers do.

[@user-cj4mg6me6h]

Pretty cool stuff. Curious about this little Deeper Air device. Does power of usb-C also count as PoE tho?

POE lighting is the newest buzz in home construction. Entire rooms can be lit with low voltage LED PoE lights bypassing the electric altogether and there are no building codes or electrical inspectors required. CaT6 cable can legally run through conduit whereas expensive Romex has many conditions before being allowed to do so.

[@weirdmindofesh]

Do you have more information on the handshaking method that PoE uses? AFAIK when a connection is made, a PoE switch does not put power down the line until it's requested, but if the requesting device does not have power of it's own, how does it wake up to do that handshake to say I need power?

[@ohdihis]

Why were there 4 unused wires in original ethernet. What was the thought behind them if they simply weren't being used?

[@TheRealKaiProton]

We got some new Ubiquity switches, where I work, and they had ports labelled with POE+ and POE++ I assume they are 90's and I figure they are preparing the infrastructure to power Computers from the Ethernet, as the industry seems to be trying to get everything to be USB-C too

[@alap1983]

Any Electronic device that's connected to data is either tethered or wireless. However it will always need power be it a battery or a power outlet. Hence it would be practical to separate data and power unless it is complicated.
