Sixty watts down one Ethernet cable. Standard 802.3af PoE gives about 15W, which covers an ordinary camera but not a floodlight camera, a PTZ or anything with heaters. This injector supplies the high-draw devices without replacing the whole switch.
Built for the installer
That is the economic argument. A site with twenty ordinary cameras and two floodlight cameras does not need a PoE++ switch for all twenty-two ports. Two injectors on the high-draw runs is a fraction of the cost and leaves the existing switch in place.
Output is auto-determined up to 60W, so it negotiates with the device rather than forcing power down the line. Gigabit throughput means it does not become the bottleneck on a high-resolution camera. Metal casing, and rated 32F to 113F.
Key features
- 60W on a single run for floodlight cameras and other high-draw devices
- Avoids replacing the whole switch when only a couple of ports need PoE++
- Auto-determined output that negotiates with the device rather than forcing power
- Gigabit throughput so it does not bottleneck a high-resolution camera
- Metal casing for rack or cabinet mounting
System requirements
Requires 100-240V AC mains and a gigabit Ethernet connection from the switch. Rated for indoor use at 32F to 113F. Check the powered device's PoE class and draw against the 60W ceiling before specifying.
