POE SPLITER Link copied!

A PoE (Power over Ethernet) Splitter is a critical networking device that allows non-PoE hardware to benefit from a PoE-enabled network. While a PoE switch or injector sends both power and data down a single Ethernet cable, many standard devices (like older IP cameras or home routers) have separate ports for data and power. The PoE splitter acts as the final \"unpacker,\" receiving the combined signal and splitting it into two distinct outputs: a standard RJ45 Ethernet plug for data and a DC barrel jack for power.

This device is a \"problem solver\" for installations where pulling new electrical wiring is too expensive or physically impossible. By using a PoE splitter, you can mount a non-PoE device up to 100 meters away from a power outlet, as long as it is connected to a PoE switch. Most splitters are \"Active,\" meaning they safely negotiate with the switch to ensure the correct voltage is delivered, while some offer adjustable switches to toggle between 5V, 9V, or 12V to match the specific needs of your hardware.
