What Is Power over Ethernet and Why It’s a Game-Changer for Simulated Avionics
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is exactly what it sounds like: a way to deliver DC power and Ethernet data over the same standard network cable . Instead of running an Ethernet cable and a separate power cable (plus an outlet or power supply), PoE lets you install and operate compatible devices using one cable from a PoE switch or injector. In the world of flight simulation hardware , that simplicity translates into something every integrator and prime cares about: faster build

Power Over Ethernet, Power Overhead: How Simtek’s PoE Simulated Avionics Save Money and Simplify Simulators
Wiring a full cockpit simulator can get expensive—fast. Multiple power lines, signal cables, distribution blocks, and harnesses can turn even a clean design into a wiring jungle. That’s why Simtek developed its own Power over Ethernet (PoE) simulated avionics solution . By combining power and data over a single Ethernet cable , we help customers: Reduce wiring complexity Lower installation and material costs Simplify maintenance and troubleshooting Build more modular, scalab
