PSE PI setup may encompass multiple PSE controllers or auxiliary circuits that collectively manage power delivery to one Ethernet port. Such configurations might support a range of PoE standards and require the capability to dynamically configure power delivery based on the operational mode (e.g., PoE2 versus PoE4) or specific requirements of connected devices. In these instances, a dedicated PSE PI node becomes essential for accurately documenting the system architecture. This node would serve to detail the interactions between different PSE controllers, the support for various PoE modes, and any additional logic required to coordinate power delivery across the network infrastructure. The old usage of "#pse-cells" is unsuficient as it carries only the PSE PI index information.
