The present invention generally relates to a power sourcing equipment adapted to connect to an outdoor wireless communication equipment through a network cable. The power sourcing equipment includes a data input port, a power over Ethernet control module, a network port, a decoder circuit and a signal strength indicator unit. The power over Ethernet control module is for obtaining a data signal from the data input port and generating a corresponding power-carrying data signal. The network port is for transferring the power-carrying data signal to a main board of the wireless communication equipment and receiving a signal provided by at least one control line and a ground line of the main board. The decoder circuit is coupled to the network port and for generating a signal strength indicator signal according to the signal provided by the at least one control line and the ground line. The signal strength indicator unit is coupled to the decoder circuit and subject to the control of the signal strength indicator
