Single-port 2.5Gbps PoE+ adapter

The STARTECH ST1000PEXPSE is a PCI Express x1 network card that adds a single RJ45 port with 2.5GBASE-T connectivity and Power over Ethernet Plus sourcing capability. It draws auxiliary power from an internal SATA or SP4 connector to deliver up to 30 W to attached devices. The card supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards for compatible powered devices.

Installers powering access points or cameras

This card suits administrators who need to supply both data and power to a single PoE device such as a wireless access point, IP camera or RFID reader over existing CAT5e or better cabling. It is not for builders who require multiple PoE ports, fiber uplinks or 10 Gbps throughput from a single expansion slot. Buyers without a spare PCIe x1 lane or internal SATA/SP4 power lead should look at other options.

Low-profile bracket and management features

A full-height and a low-profile bracket are included so the card fits standard and slim chassis alike. The on-board Realtek RTL8125B controller provides Wake-on-LAN, RealWoW remote wake, 16K jumbo frames, VLAN tagging and PXE boot support. Link and PoE status LEDs give immediate visual confirmation of connection and power delivery state.

Questions about this item

Does the card draw its PoE power from the PCIe slot or does it need a SATA power connector?

The card includes a SATA power connector to supply the 30 W PoE budget; the PCIe 2.1 x1 slot alone cannot deliver that power.

Will a 1 Gbps switch or router limit the ST1000PEXPSE to 1 Gbps?

Yes, the port auto-negotiates down to 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T when the link partner does not support 2.5GBASE-T.

Which LED shows that the card is actually delivering PoE to a camera or access point?

The dedicated PoE LED lights when the card detects a valid 802.3af or 802.3at device and is supplying up to 30 W at 48 V DC.
