Cost Reduction: A VLAN can be used to create multiple broadcast
domains, thus eliminating the need of expensive routers.
802.1Q VLAN: The VLAN tagging option is a standard set by the
IEEE to facilitate the spanning of VLANs across multiple switches.

Networks.)
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
Power over Ethernet (PoE) integrates power and data onto one single
cabling infrastructure, eliminating the need to have AC power
available at all locations.
Power and Data are integrated onto the same cable. Supporting
category 5/5e up to 100 Meters, PoE will provide power to PoE
compatible device, such as IP telephones, wireless LAN access points,
and IP security cameras.
PoE is already widely adopted in the market, saving up to 50% of
overall installation costs by eliminating the need to install separate
electrical wiring and power outlets.
