Empower Learning Environments with Microchip PoE Solutions


Welcome to the future of educational and library network solutions. Microchip's Power over Ethernet (PoE) midspans are designed to provide reliable, efficient, and scalable power to a wide range of networked devices. From wireless access points and IP cameras to VoIP phones and other networked devices, our PoE solutions ensure seamless connectivity and power delivery.

PoE Transforms Educational Institutions 


PoE technology is revolutionizing power and connectivity management in educational institutions by simplifying installations and reducing costs, thereby enhancing operational efficiency. It supports robust connectivity, improved security, and flexible network expansion, making it essential for modern schools, libraries, and universities.

E-Rate Program Eligibility


Microchip PoE midspans are approved for E-Rate program funding through the Universal Service Fund (USF), offering schools and libraries discounts on telecommunications and internet access. To apply, schools and libraries should review eligibility criteria, assess network needs, request vendor bids, and submit the necessary forms for USF approval. System integrators can assist by identifying eligible projects, ensuring compliance with E-Rate rules, collaborating with institutions, developing proposals, and supporting the application process.
