The Global Power Over Ethernet Solution Market was valued at USD 2.6 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 17.4% to reach USD 12.4 billion by 2034.

This strong growth outlook is primarily driven by the rising push toward smarter, energy-efficient infrastructure worldwide. PoE has become a key enabler in modernizing buildings by offering a cost-effective and simplified way to deliver both power and data over a single Ethernet cable. This method allows smart devices - like lighting systems, cameras, and sensors - to operate without the need for traditional electrical wiring, reducing complexity and installation costs. Organizations across sectors are turning to PoE as a flexible solution for both retrofit and new smart infrastructure projects, especially as they seek to streamline operations and enhance building intelligence.

Growing attention to security and automation has further accelerated PoE deployment. The rising adoption of IP-based surveillance solutions that rely on PoE technology is simplifying installations while significantly lowering deployment expenses. These systems allow video data and power to be transmitted via a single line, cutting down on labor and infrastructure needs. In parallel, the industrial sector is seeing a notable rise in demand for IoT-enabled devices, fueled by Industry 4.0 practices. From manufacturing floors to logistics hubs, factories equip themselves with smart sensors and networked tools that require uninterrupted power and data flow. PoE is now playing a vital role in enabling seamless, low-latency communication and operation across industrial environments, offering reliability without extensive rewiring.

In 2024, the Powered Devices (PD) segment led the Power over Ethernet Solution Market with a 54.2% share and is projected to register a CAGR of 19% through 2034. The rapid adoption of IoT technologies across smart buildings, connected city infrastructure, and industrial automation is fueling this growth. Powered devices such as security systems, smart sensors, and access control units are increasingly designed to run on PoE, which supports not only efficient energy transfer but also consistent data communication. Manufacturers are pushing multifunctional product designs that support sleek, space-saving installations while aligning with modern tech preferences.

The PoE switches segment held a 71% share in 2024 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 10.4% between 2025 and 2034. Enterprises are embracing managed switches with 16 to 48 ports as they scale their smart infrastructure, particularly in office settings, security systems, and smart facility management. These switches offer advanced network features like VLAN segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS), and remote diagnostics. The growing demand for high-power devices is also pushing the adoption of switches compliant with the IEEE 802.3bt standard, which enables centralized power control and greater efficiency across expansive device ecosystems.

United States Power over Ethernet (PoE) Solution Market held an 86.2% share, generating USD 924.4 million in 2024. This leadership is supported by an advanced digital infrastructure, rapid deployment of smart technologies, and widespread use of IP-powered systems such as VoIP, wireless access points, and advanced surveillance devices. US government initiatives promoting energy efficiency and smart city frameworks are further accelerating PoE adoption across residential, commercial, and public sector projects. Additionally, high consumer awareness and strong demand for networked, power-efficient systems position the country as a key growth driver in the region.

Key players shaping the Global Power over Ethernet (PoE) Solution Market include STMicroelectronics, Broadcom, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), Cisco Systems, Belden, Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Silicon Laboratories, CommScope, and Microchip Technology. Leading companies in the power over Ethernet solution market are strengthening their foothold through a combination of innovation, strategic collaborations, and global expansion. Many are investing heavily in R&D to support evolving standards like IEEE 802.3bt and to improve power output for next-gen smart devices. Expanding product lines to include high-port-count switches and hybrid systems tailored for industrial and commercial applications is another priority. Companies are also aligning with smart city initiatives and partnering with IoT device manufacturers to ensure seamless integration and interoperability.
