A system delivers power to a powered device through a local area network
using a power sourcing equipment to process data of an interconnected
network and to receive power from a first power source coupled to the
power sourcing equipment. The system may include a powered device coupled
at a distance away from the power sourcing equipment through a local area
network (LAN) to process the data of the interconnected network through
the power sourcing equipment. The powered device may include a modular
power over LAN circuit to enable power to the powered device through the
LAN when the modular power over LAN circuit is coupled to the powered
device.
