Abstract
The present disclosure describes a systemfor transmitting power to a remote Power over Ethernet (PoE) subsystem by forwarding Powered Device (PD) input voltage where the subsystem includes a PD and a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) device. Included is a master PSE device, a first subsystem, and a second subsystem. The first subsystemincludes a first PDthat includes a first power switching deviceand a first PSE device. The first power switching deviceforwards the input power from the first PDto the first PSEwithout disturbing the PoE handshaking between the devices. The first power switching deviceuses a switching device with level detection that detects the required input voltage. The second subsystemreceives the power from the first subsystem'sfirst PSE device. And the second subsystemoperates in a manner similar to the first subsystem
