Hi, welcome to the community.

The PoE cable is just the normal Ethernet cable. For the non-POE devices, it will only transfer the network data.

If one side of the cable is to Garden Deco, do you plan to connect the other end directly to the main Deco M5 or a network switch?

Here are more details about Ethernet Backhaul on Deco:

Thank you very much and best regards.

  @David-TP The other end goes directly into the main Deco in my house.

Thank you and it should be able to create the Ethernet Backhaul between the Decos.

Best regards.
