PoE integrates data and power on the same wires, while keeping the structured cabling safe and not interfering with concurrent network operation. PoE delivers 44-57v of DC power over unshielded twisted-pair wiring for terminals consuming up to 25 watts, depending on the version of the standard in use. There are several common techniques for transmitting power over Ethernet cabling; two of them have been standardized by the IEEE 802.3 committee. Power may be transmitted on the unused (spare) conductors of a cable, since only two of the four pairs are needed for the commonly used 10Mbit/s–100Mbit/s physical layers (Alternative B) or power may be transmitted on the data conductors by applying a common-mode voltage to each pair (Alternative A). 

The IEEE standards for PoE require category 5 cable or better for high power levels but allow using category 3 cable if less power is required. Power is supplied in common mode over two or more of the differential pairs of wires found in the Ethernet cables and comes from a power supply within a PoE-enabled networking device such as an Ethernet switch or can be injected into a cable run with a midspan power supply. A midspan power supply, also known as a PoE power injector, is an additional PoE power source that can be used in combination with a non-PoE switch.

Standards-based Power over Ethernet is implemented following the specifications in IEEE 802.3af-2003. A phantom power technique is used to allow the powered pairs to also carry data. This permits its use not only with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, which use only two of the four pairs in the cable, but also with 1000BASE-T (gigabit Ethernet), which uses all four pairs for data transmission. This is possible because all versions of Ethernet over twisted pair cable specify differential data transmission over each pair with transformer coupling; the DC supply and load connections can be made to the transformer center-taps at each end. Each pair thus operates in common mode as one side of the DC supply, so two pairs are required to complete the circuit. The polarity of the DC supply may be inverted by crossover MDI-X cables; the powered device must operate with either pair: spare pairs 4–5 and 7–8 or data pairs 1–2 and 3–6. Polarity is required on data pairs, and ambiguously implemented for spare pairs, with the use of a diode bridge.

IEEE 802.3af standard POE pinout:

Pins at switch	T568A color	T568B color	mode B	mode A	mode A  MDI-X
Pin 1	White/green stripe	White/orange stripe		DC +	DC -
Pin 2	Green solid	Orange solid		DC +	DC -
Pin 3	White/orange stripe	White/green stripe		DC −	DC +
Pin 4	Blue solid	Blue solid	DC +
Pin 5	White/blue stripe	White/blue stripe	DC +
Pin 6	Orange solid	Green solid		DC −	DC +
Pin 7	White/brown stripe	White/brown stripe	DC −
Pin 8	Brown solid	Brown solid	DC −

IEEE Std 802.3-2015 table 33-2 also allows PSE side Alternative A (MDI-X) with polarity reversed from Alternative A (MDI).

The original IEEE 802.3af-2003 PoE standard devices provides up to 15.4 W of DC power (minimum 44 V DC and 350 mA) to each device.

The newer PoE+  IEEE 802.3at-2009 PoE standard provides up to 25.5 W of power. Some vendors have announced products that offer up to 51 W of power over a single cable by utilizing all four pairs in the Category 5 cable.
