WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE Between POE AND POE+?
PoE (Power over Ethernet) is a networking feature deﬁned by the IEEE 802.3af (PoE) and 802.3at (PoE+) standards. PoE lets Ethernet cables supply power to network devices over the existing information connection.
PoE-capable devices can exist power sourcing equipment (PSE), powered devices (PDs), or sometimes both. The device that transmits ability is a PSE, while the device that is powered is a PD. Well-nigh PSEs are either network switches or PoE injectors intended for apply with not-PoE switches. Common examples of PDs include VoIP phones, wireless admission points, and IP cameras.
PoE+, the update to PoE, is the IEEE 802.3at standard. The major difference between 802.3af (PoE) and 802.3at (PoE+) is that PoE+ PSEs can provide almost twice as much power over a single Ethernet cable. Amcrest cameras with PoE+ compatibility, like our larger speed dome cameras, can only exist powered by using a PoE+ PSE such as a PoE+ switch or PoE+ injector or with the included ability supply. PoE+ PSEs can supply ability to both PoE and PoE+ PDs, but PoE PSEs can only supply power to PoE PDs. PoE+ PDs require more power than PoE PSEs can provide.
Ethernet, PoE, and PoE+ restrict cable distances upward to 100 meters (328 feet) between network ports. Anything exceeding this limit may issue in indicate deposition or insufﬁcient power to the PD. In such cases, an Ethernet and PoE extender may be recommended. For more information on POE and POE+ devices, visit amcrest.com/poeplus
