PoE means "Power over Ethernet".  It uses some of the spare wires in the Cat-5 UTP cable to provide power to devices.

Using Ethernet on your robot means that you can have your robot connected to a network, with a cable.  WiFi is more applicable to robots.

That's a really, really general question; the response to that could be a long as a book!

So here's a book: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596510510.do
