"28AWG cables cannot be used for PoE" is a useful safety warning, but not an absolute technical truth. A more precise professional statement would be: uncertified and unevaluated 28AWG cables must never be used for PoE. However, in clearly defined short‑distance, low‑power, and well‑ventilated scenarios, strictly certified 28AWG cable can serve as a space‑saving and effective solution.Our responsibility as professionals is to make decisions based on data and the manufacturer’s explicit specifications, not on a simple "yes" or "no." I have used this type of cable myself, and it works fine for short‑range PoE. I have not used it for long distances, nor would I, since this is merely one of the solutions adopted to address my space constraints.ah a scambot clearly selling bad products for PoE .. avoid that brand 28 AWG is NOT good for PoE .. get real copper and properly sized

I just want to share that 28AWG cables can indeed support short‑distance PoE cabling. Technology keeps advancing, and relying solely on theory is not enough to verify the truth. Many brands are now producing this type of cable.Hey @Maya ..
you smell like a bot, tell us how you are not a bot.
let's see ..
What brand cables did you get ?
How much did you pay ?
What PoE equipment are you personally using ?
