as a sysadmin, ive useed systems like dells proprietary version of this for decades.
its a ‘wake on lan’ feature of the network card, which still gets power and ‘listens’ over the network when it gets an appropriate signal, it then triggers the machine to boot. the lan provides the power to run the ‘monitor’.
very common, very old. and i agree similar… but not quite what this phone thing is.
some computers/servers need a dynamic power state, but even so the WOL feature can be removed.
we are no longer in control of our phones hardware, so we cant just remove things.
