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

Torrance , CA – February 14, 2005TRENDnet, 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.
