A system and method for continual cable thermal monitoring using cable resistance considerations for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. Cable heating in PoE applications is related to the resistance of the cable itself. By periodically monitoring the resistance of the cable, it can be determined whether the cable has exceeded certain operating thresholds. The determined resistance as a proxy for cable heating can then be used in adjusting operational characteristics of PoE channels.
