In 2003, the 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) was introduced, representing several standards and ad hoc systems that deliver data along with electric power via twisted-pair Ethernet cabling. This technology quickly gained popularity because it only requires a single cable rather than two (one providing power and another delivering data) for devices. Initially, PoE merely […]
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a novel power supply for Ethernet-connected devices. Eliminating the need for separate power supplies and outlets, it offers an efficient approach to motor design for motion control. Let’s walk through the basics of PoE and learn how the process can apply to motion control applications. What Is PoE? PoE refers […]

There are thousands of data centers worldwide, with approximately half of these in the top 20 global cities. Gartner identifies three crucial segments that Data and Analytics (D&A) corporations should strive to integrate into their 2022 strategy. The current top data center statistics represent technology, market, and business dynamics that will help companies transform uncertainty […]
A flood of data engulfs today’s business environment, which changes how companies handle computing. That explains why enterprises are increasingly adopting edge computing, an IT framework that processes data at the point of generation — the edge. Though it serves a similar role as remote data centers, edge computing has several benefits. It reduces latency, […]
