Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that combines electrical power and data transmission over a single Ethernet cable. It eliminates the need for separate power sources, simplifying installations for devices like IP cameras, and VoIP phones. In this presentation, we'll initially delve into Power over Ethernet (PoE), It debuted in IEEE Clause 33 without explicit reference to the PoE nomenclature. We will look at what currently exists in the Linux kernel and user space to support PoE. We'll continue our discussion with some details of the Linux implementation currently in development and the PSE core changes brought by this new support. The PSE framework core and bindings happen to need modification as it was not prepared for the PoE specificities. In parallel to these extensions of the PSE framework, we developed Linux kernel drivers for two distinct PoE controllers: the Microchip PD692x0 and the Texas Instruments TPS23881. Finally, we will look into the mainline status, the things that still need to be merged and the future features that need development. This PoE Linux support is sponsored and funded by DENT Project.
