PSE Acronym for Power Sourcing Equipment. A device that provides power on Ethernet cabling to PoE devices. See: PoE, Midspan, Endspan
Pull Down Resistor A resistor used to pull a logic input "down" to the low state, or logic-0 state, thus preventing a disconnected input from floating into an undetermined state.
Pull Up Resistor A resistor used to pull a logic input "up" to the high state, or logic-1 state, thus preventing a disconnected input from floating into an undetermined state.
