Power over Ethernet PoE is inherently safer than traditional AC power systems because it operates at 48 volts DC, which falls well within the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) range defined by international safety standards. This voltage level is considered safe for human contact under normal. Power isolation is a critical requirement when choosing a PoE Ethernet Switch. Over. PoE is a revolutionary technology in network infrastructure, facilitating concurrent data transmission and electrical power through standard Ethernet cables. This innovation not only streamlines wiring but also slashes installation costs while affording unparalleled flexibility in device placement. This document describes an easy-to-use, low-cost isolated power supply to be used in Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) powered devices (PD's) that is based on TI's TPS2370 PoE interface switch. Starting with Type 1 PoE (IEEE 802. 3af) introduced in 2003, delivering up to 15.
