Abstract:
In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a cable for transmitting power at a level exceeding 100 watts and data from power sourcing equipment to a powered device, and plugs at each end of the cable, each of the plugs comprising at least one resistor. Power capacity of the cable is identified at a port receiving one of the plugs based on the resistors.
