1-25. (canceled)
A circuit board assembly comprising:
- an Ethernet port;
- a power converter coupled to the Ethernet port;
- a processing unit comprising a processor and a memory device, the processing unit coupled to the power converter and communicatively coupled to the Ethernet port;
- and
- a sensor coupled to the power converter and communicatively coupled to the processing unit, the power converter being configured to convert power received via the Ethernet port for use by the processing unit and the sensor, the processing unit being configured to receive sensor signaling from the sensor and send sensor information via the Ethernet port in response to the sensor signaling.
