Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a method of powering Ethernet capable devices
using CAT5 Ethernet cable to carry both data and power to a device, eliminating
the need for a standard power source.
The FortiWiFi-50B includes the availability for PoE through the WAN1 port. The
FortiWiFi-50B supports the IEEE 802.3af standard as a Powered Device (PD)
using CAT5 Ethernet cable.
This enables you to place the FortiWiFi-50B in locations where connecting to a
standard power source is inconvenient or impractical.
