Dual Gigabit PoE Ports

The StarTech ST2000PEXPSE adds two 10/100/1000 Mbps Power-over-Ethernet RJ45 ports to a PCI Express slot. Each port delivers data and up to 25.5 W of power, compliant with the IEEE 802.3at Type 1 and Type 2 standard. It targets installers who need to supply PoE devices such as access points or cameras directly from a desktop or server chassis.

Replacing External Injectors

This card removes the need for separate midspan injectors or a dedicated PoE switch when only a few endpoints are required. The upgrade is worthwhile when cabling runs are already terminated at the host location and local power sourcing simplifies the deployment. On-chip 48 KB transmit and receive buffers help maintain throughput under load.

Build Integration

A free PCI Express slot, a low-profile bracket option and either a SATA or LP4 Molex power connector from the PSU are required. The adapter draws PoE budget from that internal connector, freeing external wall outlets and reducing cable clutter. Surge protection circuitry helps shield the host system from lightning-induced transients on the Ethernet lines.

Questions about this item

What PCI-Express slot and case bracket does the ST2000PEXPSE require?

The card fits a PCI-Express slot and ships with a low-profile bracket for slim chassis installations.

How is the PoE power connected to the card, and what step is often missed?

Connect internal SATA or LP4 Molex power to the onboard connector; the card cannot supply up to 25.5W per port without this auxiliary feed.

Which on-board components protect the system from surges, and do they need replacement?

The built-in surge protection is a permanent circuit design; no user-serviceable parts require periodic replacement.
