POE (power over Ethernet) waxaa loola jeedaa tignoolajiyada gudbinta awooda iyada oo loo marayo fiilada shabakada.Iyada oo la kaashanayo Ethernet-ka jira, waxay isku mar u gudbin kartaa xogta waxayna siin kartaa awoodda qalabka IP-ga (sida teleefoonka IP, AP, IP camera, iwm.) iyada oo loo marayo fiilada shabakadda.

Poe waxaa sidoo kale loo yaqaannaa awoodda LAN (POL) ama Ethernet firfircoon, mararka qaarkood loo yaqaan sahayda korantada Ethernet.

Si loo habeeyo loona horumariyo horumarinta tignoolajiyada sahayda korantada ee Poe loona xalliyo dhibaatada laqabsiga udhaxeeya awooda korantada iyo qalabka kahelaya agabka soosaarayaasha kala duwan, gudiga heerarka IEEE ayaa si isdaba joog ah usoo saaray sadex heer Poe ah: IEEE 802.3af standard, IEEE 802.3at standard iyo Heerka IEEE 802.3bt.
