DSLRKIT Active PoE Splitter 48V to 5V 5.2V 2.4A USB TYPE A Female 802.3af for tablet

Product Information

With its PoE (Power over Ethernet) support, you can use a single Ethernet cable to deliver both network connection and power supply to your Micro-USB devices (that support ethernet over Micro-USB port) in a stable hardwire connection. Thanks to element14 for providing the opportunity to test it. As I don't have any suitable test equipment for this type of device (apart from a multimeter), I decided to carry out a "consumer-style" test, rather than a lab-based one. The CG-POE-CESBT is intended for indoor environments, designed to be powered from an IEEE802.3bt PoE switch or PoE injector (not included). Supports up to 100m distance from a PoE switch or injector to Type-C converter wired over Cat5/5e/6 cable. Enclosed in a compact, IP40 high-impact metal case, the CG-POE-CESBT is easy to pair with your devices. The Raspberry Pi Foundation released a second version of the Pi 4 ("Rev 1.2") which fixed the problem. To find out if your Raspberry Pi 4 is Rev 1.2 or later (and will therefore work with the Microchip PoE-USB-C adapter), load the Terminal and type " cat /proc/cpuinfo". Press Enter and at the bottom of the screen it will show your Raspberry Pi model details including Revision number.

Yes, according to the specs, the Pi 4 v1.2 is compatible with the 5V3A profile of the GAT-USBC-REV2. This is theultimate Micro-USB Ethernet adapter for your Pi Zero! With multiple working modes, it helps you supply Ethernet and power over a single Micro-USB connector. The GAT-USBC will convert the IEEE 802.3af/at POE to the corresponding profile of your device (5V, 9V, 12V, 15V, 20V). The power delivery will be out on the USB Type C connector and the data out on the RJ45. This version does not communicate data over the USB-C port. For both power and data on the USB-C please see GAT-USBC-PD-Rev2.

Yes, this splitter will work with 802.3af passive PoE. This splitter requires an input voltage of 44-56 volts, so it is not compatible with 24V passive PoE. In May 2020, I Roadtested a Raspberry Pi PoE HAT and, in the process, explained a bit about the benefits and applications of PoE. I am looking for something that i can use to power Google WiFi on a Ceiling where no plug is available. looks like your product will do it. Presently have a 802.3.at powered access point installed and want to replace it with Google WiFi. Google WiFi needs a lan connection and a USB-C for power since it is not PoE. Will your product accomplish this?

Is it possible to use a Netgear GS305P to run two Google Wi-Fi units off two of your GAT-USBC splitters? Looks like a good product.

The marketing materials for the Microchip PoE to USB-C Power and Data Adapter suggest very clearly that it is intended to allow a "kiosk PC" to be operated from a single PoE-enabled network cable. By "kiosk PC", I think they mean the sort of small, low-powered PC, such as an Intel NUC that is used in information kiosks (often with a touch-screen) in public places. Normally those devices would need a power connection and also a network or Internet connection. Long network cables are relatively low-cost and would allow the kisok PC to be up to 100m or 328ft from the network switch. In contrast, USB-C cables can only be a few (<4) metres in length if used to transmit data, so the Microchip PoE to USB-C Power and Data Adapter would allow such a kiosk to be installed in relatively remote locations where there is no easy access to mains power. The GAT-USBC splitter is active/802.3at, so it will require power from a POE source to pass data through. Data is then "split" on to the female RJ45 output, not the USB-C connection. Power-over-Ethernet ("PoE") is a networking feature defined by the IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at and 802.3bt standards. PoE lets Ethernet cables supply power to network devices over the existing data connection. PoE to Micro-USB Adapter Mode: Use an Ethernet cable running from the Power source ( IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE switch or injector) to connect to the PoE/Ethernet IN port of this adapter, and then connect Micro-USB Out to your device. No, the output female RJ45 port only provides data out, not power. Power is only provided on the female USB-C output.
