Abstract

A contactless PoE connection system and a contactless PoE connector for use in the connection system, in which the contactless PoE connector has a first contactless interface configured for bidirectional data transfer, a second contactless interface configured for unidirectional power transfer, and a third interface to which a first Ethernet line can be connected. The third interface is configured to receive data and power, which are to be transferred jointly via the Ethernet line. Furthermore, a data and power splitting device are connected to the first, second, and third interfaces, which splitting device is configured for splitting power and data as applied to the third interface and for selectively supplying data to the first contactless interface and for selectively supplying power to the second contactless interface.
