The IEEE is currently looking at ways of increasing the amount of power transmitted. The upcoming IEEE 802.3bt[11] standard slated for early 2018 will introduce two additional power types: up to 55 W (Type 3) and up to 90-100 W (Type 4). Each pair of twisted pairs will need to handle a current of up to 600 mA (Type 3) or 960 mA (Type 4).[12] Additionally, support for 2.5GBASE-T, 5GBASE-T and 10GBASE-T is planned.[13] This development opens the door to new applications and expands the use of applications such as high-performance wireless access points and surveillance cameras.

Powering devices from the data cable is very convenient. But do not forget most cables are not meant for this application. Heating of cables (esp. when bundled) and connectors is becoming a problem. See:
