Power over Ethernet (PoE) splitter separates power and data from a single Ethernet cable, allowing you to power devices that do not natively support PoE. Here's a breakdown:
How it Works:
PoE sends power and data over the same Ethernet cable.
A PoE splitter takes this combined signal and separates the power from the data.
The splitter provides a separate output for data (usually an Ethernet port) and a separate output for power (often a DC barrel connector).
This allows you to connect non-PoE devices to a PoE network.
Key Features:
Converts PoE to separate power and data: Enables powering non-PoE devices with PoE.
Simplifies installation: Reduces the need for separate power cables.
Offers flexibility: Allows device placement where power outlets are not readily available.
Supports various voltages: Common output voltages are 12V
