Abstract

A system for providing power over Ethernet illuminated signage is provided. The system includes receiving lighting instructions via an Ethernet compatible communications protocol, translating those instructions to a lower bandwidth, slower protocol while passing through DC power. Illumination fixtures are powered by the passed-through power and operated in accordance with the translated instructions.
