Review on UCTRONICS PoE Splitter USB-C 5V - Active PoE to USB-C Adapter: For Raspberry Pi 4, Google WiFi, Security Cameras, and More by Carl Morgan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Raspberry Pi cluster needs to grow

Easy to install, works with my Netgear GS716TPP to power my Raspberry Pi 4b and doesn't interfere with any cooling system I want to tweak or need a hat . Untested, but presumably I can turn my Raspberry Pi on and off with a switch, which would probably be very useful. At first I thought the adapter might be a nuisance, but I think it can easily be tethered to my DIN rail. I mount everything on Pis. The only complaint is that I wish the adapter was cheaper, but it works for a couple of devices that I'll probably set up.

Pros
  • Why PoE on USB-C is a cost-effective way to add plug-and-play PoE support to 5V USB-C powered devices and take full advantage of PoE switches or Raspberry Pi 4 where to set up PoE HAT is not applicable
Cons
  • Not bad but...
