A powered device (PD) used for power over Ethernet (PoE), where the PD includes an Ethernet port and a rectifier circuit. The rectifier circuit includes a first control circuit and a second control circuit, where the first control circuit is configured to control a first metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) and a second MOSFET, avoid turning on the first MOSFET and the second MOSFET at a PoE detection stage, and turn on at least one of the first MOSFET or the second MOSFET at a PoE power supply stage. The second control circuit is configured to control a third MOSFET and a fourth MOSFET, turn on at least one of the third MOSFET or the fourth MOSFET at the PoE power supply stage, and avoid turning on the third MOSFET and the fourth MOSFET at the PoE detection stage.
