Combining Power and Data Transmission Over a Single Cable

Enercon’s Power over Ethernet (PoE) product line delivers reliable power and data transmission over a single standard Ethernet cabling, optimized for military and aerospace systems. Designed to support a range of power levels and data rates, these solutions are ideal for powering compact devices such as tactical radios, ruggedized displays, and surveillance cameras. All Enercon PoE modules are designed to meet MIL-STD specifications, ensuring robust performance in extreme environmental conditions, including shock, vibration, temperature, and EMI. These products offer scalable integration options for systems requiring high reliability and minimal cabling complexity.


What is PoE

PoE technology enables centralized power distribution by delivering both power and data over a single Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power wiring, reducing system complexity, weight, and installation time—especially valuable in space-constrained military and aerospace platforms. Enercon’s PoE products support IEEE 802.3af/at/bt standards, offering scalable power delivery from 15W to 90W per 10M/100M/1G/10G Ethernet port. This makes them ideal for powering a wide range of networked devices such as IP cameras, radios, sensors, and wireless access points. By consolidating infrastructure, PoE simplifies deployment, enhances reliability, and supports rapid system integration in harsh, mission-critical environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Power over Ethernet (PoE)?

PoE is a technology that allows electrical power and data to be transmitted over a single standard Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power wiring/endpoint equipment power source, simplifying installation and reducing system complexity.

What are PoE PD and PSE?
  • PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment): The device that supplies power over Ethernet—typically a PoE switch or injector.
  • PD (Powered Device): The endpoint that receives power—such as an IP camera, radio, sensor, or access point.
What PoE standards do Enercon products support?

Enercon’s PoE solutions support:

  • IEEE 802.3af (PoE) – up to 15.4W per port
  • IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) – up to 30W per port
  • IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) – up to 60–90W per port
What Ethernet speeds are supported with PoE?

802.3af supports speeds up to 100Mbps, while 802.3at and 802.3bt support up to 10Gbps.

What voltage does PoE use?

PoE systems typically operate between 44V and 57V DC, depending on the standard:

  • 802.3af (PoE): ~48–57V
  • 802.3at (PoE+): ~50–57V
  • 802.3bt (PoE++): ~52–57V, used for higher power delivery up to 90W

These voltages are supplied by the PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) and safely delivered to PDs (Powered Devices) through Ethernet cabling.

What is a PoE Injector?

A PoE injector adds power to an Ethernet cable for devices that require PoE but are connected to a non-PoE switch or router. It is located between the network switch and the powered device (PD), injecting power into the data line to enable remote powering of devices like cameras, radios, or sensors.

What is a PoE Splitter?

A PoE splitter is a device that allows powering non-PoE equipment using a PoE-enabled Ethernet connection. It takes in a single Ethernet cable carrying both power and data, then separates them into two outputs:

  • One output provides data through a standard Ethernet connection (10M/100M/1G/10GBase-T)
  • The other provides power to the endpoint equipment through a DC plug

This is useful when connecting legacy devices that do not support PoE directly but still need to be powered through the same PoE network infrastructure.

What is a PoE Budget?

A PoE budget is the total amount of power that a PoE switch or injector can supply across all its ports. Each powered device (PD) connected to the switch draws a certain amount of power, and the combined power draw must stay within the switch’s or injector’s maximum budget.

What are the major benefits associated with Power over Ethernet?

PoE technology major benefits include:

  • Lowering and simplifying installation costs – single cable, no need in power source near endpoint equipment
  • Lowering energy consumption due to PoE efficient power delivery
  • Highly scalable infrastructure
  • Highly stable infrastructure – complies with the strict regulations of IEEE
  • Centralized power management allowing efficient monitoring of loads
