Single-Port 2.5GbE PoE+ Injector

This single-port injector adds Power over Ethernet Plus to a 2.5GbE link. It accepts 10, 100, 1G and 2.5G Ethernet speeds and complies with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards. The unit ships new with a 1.8m North American power cord and a quick-start guide. Installers use it to power compatible access points, cameras or VoIP phones without a PoE switch.

Build integration and cabling

Connect the injector between a non-PoE switch or router and the powered device using standard twisted-pair cabling. The injector draws AC power from the included cord and injects DC power onto the Ethernet pairs, freeing the network switch from PoE budget constraints. No software configuration is required; the link negotiates speed automatically up to 2.5Gbps. Ensure the powered device supports 802.3af or 802.3at for correct operation.

Included accessories and documentation

The 1.8m power cord provides immediate mains connectivity for North American outlets. The quick-start guide outlines port identification, LED status indicators and basic troubleshooting steps. No management software, licences or mounting brackets are bundled. Buyers who need rack mounting, multi-port injection or remote management must source those separately.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum data rate the injector can sustain without throttling?

The injector supports 10, 100, 1G and 2.5G Ethernet speeds, so the highest sustained rate is 2.5Gbps.

How much heat or fan noise does the unit produce when powering a device all day?

No fan is mentioned in the specifications, so the unit runs silently and relies on passive cooling.

Which cables and power source are required before the injector will work?

You need an Ethernet cable for the data link and a standard North American outlet for the included 1.8m power cord.
