The FS116P supplies data & current at the same time over a Cat 5-cable. It uses thereby the Po E technology (power over Ethernet). The 16 Fast-Ethernet-ports can be used for each 10/100 MBit/s binding. Attention of ports can transfer additional current, based on the standard IEEE802.3af. Extended auto sensing algorithms give security that only 802.3af-terminals are supplied with current. If attached Po E equipment becomes suspended, the current supply is turned off automatically. Po E simplifies & optimizes the network installation, since attached terminals are no more dependent on an obvious current plug socket. This applies particularly to access points, monitoring cameras & similar equipment, since these can to be now always placed at the optimal location.
