GE-DS-242-PoE Managed Ethernet Switch User Manual 

PoE System Architecture 

The specification of PoE typically requires two devices: the Powered Source 
Equipment (PSE) and the Powered Device (PD). The PSE is either an End-Span or a Mid-
Span, while the PD is a PoE-enabled terminal, such as IP Phones, Wireless LAN, etc. 
Power can be delivered over data pairs or spare pairs of standard CAT-5 cabling. 
 

How Power is Transferred Through the Cable 

A standard CAT5 Ethernet cable has four twisted pairs, but only two of these are used 
for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T. The specification allows two options for using these 
cables for power, shown in Figure 8-1 and Figure 8-2: 
The spare pairs are used. Figure 8-1 shows the pair on pins 4 and 5 connected 
together and forming the positive supply, and the pair on pins 7 and 8 connected and 
forming the negative supply. (In fact, a late change to the spec allows either polarity 
to be used).
