Power over Ethernet (PoE) enables lighting fixtures (luminaires) to receive both power and data through a single Ethernet cable, allowing seamless communication between the lighting system and control software. PoE lighting has become a key component of the Internet of Things (IoT). By leveraging network-based infrastructure, LED lighting and integrated sensors work together to provide actionable insights and intelligent control.

Coulter’s Network Communications supports the design and installation of these systems to help capture valuable analytics, optimize space utilization, and manage facility-wide operations through a unified network platform. The result is a smarter, more adaptable building that reduces costs, increases efficiency, and is built to evolve with future technology needs.
