PoE (Power over Ethernet) capability is becoming increasingly important in industrial Ethernet cables, enabling simultaneous power and data supply of smaller network components with low energy requirements such as IP cameras and wireless access points.
PoE Applications:
IP cameras: Security and process monitoring
Wireless access points: Industrial wireless networking
Sensors: IIoT device connectivity
HMI devices: Operator interfaces
Cat.7 cables like ETHERLINE support PoE applications while maintaining high-speed data transmission, reducing cabling complexity and improving energy efficiency.
