- Because PoE allows you to use one cable for both power and data transmission, PoE saves you money on purchasing and running cable for networking equipment and VoIP phones.
- PoE makes installing or expanding a network much simpler and cheaper in buildings where it is too expensive or inconvenient to install new power lines.
- Using PoE lets you mount devices in places where it would be impractical to install power, such as drop ceilings.
- Using PoE can reduce the number of cables and electrical outlets needed in a crowded equipment room or wiring closet.
