In today’s connected environments, wireless access points (APs) are essential for providing seamless Wi-Fi coverage — especially in offices, campuses, and commercial buildings. One of the smartest ways to install these APs is using Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology.

What is PoE?
Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows both power and data to be delivered to network devices over a single Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power outlets and reduces installation complexity.

Why Use PoE for Wireless Access Points?

1. Simplified Installation
No need for an electrician or wall sockets near the ceiling — a single Ethernet cable does it all.

2. Clean and Professional Setup
Reduces cable clutter, especially in visible areas like ceilings and hallways.

3. Flexible AP Placement
You can install APs exactly where they’re needed for optimal Wi-Fi coverage — not just where power outlets are located.

4. Centralized Power Management
Using PoE switches, you can reboot APs remotely or manage power distribution from a central location.

5. Cost-Efficient
Lower installation costs by eliminating the need for separate electrical work.

📡 PoE in Structured Cabling Projects
At Simplified Communications technology, we design structured cabling systems that fully support PoE, especially for wireless access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and other low-power network devices. Whether you’re expanding your Wi-Fi network or starting from scratch, PoE is a smart, scalable solution we include in most of our wireless setups.

All our structured cabling packages can include PoE-compatible switches, cabling, and installation to support seamless wireless connectivity.
