  "textContent": "Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) powered devices (PD) may be coupled to a PoE power sourcing equipment (PSE). The PDs may send to the PSE a link-layer protocol communication that comprises an alternative-power field indicating whether the sending PD has an alternative power source (e.g., a battery, a local power supply). The PSE may listen for and receive the communications and read the alternative-power fields thereof. The PSE may set respective power priorities for the PDs based at least in part on whether the PDs have respective alternative power sources, as indicated by the respective alternative-power fields of their communications. The PSE may reduce the power priority of those PDs that have alternative power sources, relative to the priority the PD would otherwise have been given.",
