Cisco Catalyst 4500E UPOE Line Card

Cisco Universal Power Over Ethernet (Cisco UPOE) Line Cards extend the IEEE 802.3 PoE+ standard to double the power per port to 60 watts. UPOE-enabled ports can be used to deliver power for all current PoE/PoE+ solutions in addition to UPOE devices including VDI clients, IP turrets for financial trading, personal TelePresence systems, and more.
