Can POE power supply use ordinary network cable?

Many small partners confused what type of Network Cable to choose for POE power supply. Today, let Kingwire the network cable manufacturer give you the answer:

First of all: POE power supply provides network power supply for remote power receiving terminals through POE switches. POE power supply system requires 4 cores to send and receive, and 4 cores are used for power supply, so the first point of POE power supply is to choose 8 cores cable.

Secondly: POE power supply has relatively high requirements on the network cable. The transmission distance of POE power supply and the effective transmission distance of the network cable are decisively related. If the resistance of the network cable is too high, the transmission signal will be unstable or even blocked.

Therefore, if power supply is required, it is less necessary to use super five types of oxygen-free copper network cables, because poe power supply has relatively high requirements on wires, and wires with low resistance and long transmission distance need to be used. Then you can use Category 6 or Category 6e, but the cost will be higher. Category 6 and Category 6e cables are compatible with Category 5e cables.

So what is full copper and what is oxygen-free copper?

Ordinary all-copper network cable is bronze network cable. The purity of copper is not high. The resistance of the network cable itself is very high, and the transmission distance will be relatively short. High requirements, all copper does not meet the transmission requirements of POE power supply. It is recommended to choose an oxygen-free copper network cable as the transmission medium.

The network cable resistance of oxygen-free copper is lower, the transmission distance is longer, and the transmission effect is relatively stable. When used as a POE power supply transmission medium, transmission problems are not easy to occur. The transmission of the data signal is determined by the network cable. The network cable with good quality can naturally transmit farther. The transmission distance of the ordinary Category 5 cable data signal is about 100 meters. However, in order to ensure the construction quality in the project, generally take 80 meters to 90 meters.

The oxygen-free copper network cable produced by Shenzhen Kingwire Electronics Co., Ltd. has a copper content of 99.99%, which can meet your POE power supply requirements. You need to find a professional network cable manufacturer for network cables, such as Category 5, Category 6, Category 7, Category 8 network cables. And network jumpers, unshielded and CAT6A shielded network cables are produced, welcome to negotiate and consult!
