Power over ethernet: Measuring network performance for home network / Juliana Juffree

This research project serves as a reference on measuring and determining the
network performance upon the Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection. With the
emerging evolution of network devices compatible with Power over Ethernet
technology, PoE had become the main choice for powering access points, IP phones,
network camera and mobile kiosk as PoE technology enables data and power supply
being sent through the same Ethernet cable. There are three different experiments
conducted through this research paper which are default testing, environment testing
and range testing. The data transmission behavior is observed and recorded before
and after the adoption of Power over Ethernet technology. For conclusion, the Power
over Ethernet technology does not degrade the network performance for home
environment. This important finding is revealed through all experiments conducted
through the thesis project.
