. a spot on my property where my cellular hotspot has excellent reception where the Pi can use Wi-Fi.

I bought a UCTRONICS PoE splitter to power a Raspberry Pi at a remote location (a location on my property where my cellular hotspot has excellent reception where the Pi has a Using Wi-Fi bridge to ethernet and a signal to my house as main internet). The priority was performance over 10/100 as I can get 150Mbps at this point. After testing my setup with a power strip, I needed a way to power the system without running another wire. Use a UCTRONICS Poe splitter. My splitter arrived and after extensive testing (using a TP Link PoE switch; multiple separate PoE injectors; multiple cables) I concluded that my splitter was not working and had to be returned. I usually contact the sellers first if I've missed something (although this device seems pretty basic, maybe my atomizers/switches weren't compatible?). Arducam, the seller, was very quick to respond and immediately sent a replacement splitter which appeared two days later. This new splitter performed exactly as I hoped it would - gigabit speed, 2.4A output, plug and play, and worked with all my injectors. It's also smaller than many of my other brands of PoE splitters, so it works better when I plug everything in. I've had equipment from small to large manufacturers that didn't work, equipment that was excellent, I have spares. It all depends on the reaction of the company involved and my star rating reflects a working device and great and quick responses from Arducam to get me a replacement. Thanks Arduk!
