This application relates to a power consumption grading method for a network-based power supply system. The method includes: when it is detected that power overload protection is not triggered, starting a plurality of power modules of a powered device one by one in a specific order until all the plurality of power modules are started or it is detected that the power overload protection is triggered after a specific power module is started; when it is detected that the power overload protection is triggered, selecting, according to the specific order and based on the specific power module, one or more of the plurality of power modules as a power module combination of the powered device; and determining a load power of the powered device and a corresponding power consumption level based on the power module combination.

Network-based power supply system

A filtering-based power supply apparatus used in a power sourcing equipment (PSE) includes a power supply control circuit and an adaptive filter circuit. The power supply control circuit includes a power supply channel and a detection module. The power supply channel includes a control switch configured to control on and off of the power supply channel. The detection module is configured to send a detection signal to the power supply channel to detect whether a peer device connected to the power supply channel is a valid powered device. The control switch is turned off in a detection process of the power supply channel. The adaptive filter circuit is configured to filter noise in the detection signal in the detection process of the power supply channel.
