Description of πŸ’‘ Enhanced Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE) HAT for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B and Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (Pro, Isolated (3KV))

ULTIMATE POWER OVER ETHERNET HAT FOR RASPBERRY PI 4: Deliver clean and reliable power to the latest Pi 4! Power-over-Ethernet is both simple, power efficient, and cost effective compared to having multiple power adapters. PoE power output must be within the budget of the switch when powering multiple boards. PoE switch and Raspberry Pi 4 Model B sold separately. GALVANICALLY ISOLATED POWER OVER ETHERNET UP TO 3KV: Designed for IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at, and Passive DC 48V network switches and power sourcing equipment (PSE). The professional model features galvanic isolation for applications with non-IEEE 802.3 compliant switches and power injectors that do not provide PSE side isolation. BUILT FOR CLUSTER NODES: Simplify cable management and expand your on-premise cloud with POE! Power five, ten, twenty Raspberry Pi 4 Model B boards through a single POE switch. This PoE HAT was designed to exceed the power delivery standards set by the official Raspberry Pi PoE HAT and other products available on the market. VENTILATED CASE WITH COOLING FAN HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: Do not use this product in an enclosed case without active air circulation. Airflow around the HAT and Raspberry Pi 4 Model B must be adequate to ensure performance and stable operation. EASY INSTALLATION AND BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE: Please remove all non-essential heatsinks including RAM/USB/Ethernet heatsink before seating the HAT! Supports the latest Raspberry Pi 4 as well as the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+.

Just like Pi! the best single board computer

Although designed for "Rospberry Pi" as stated on the box, it works great for Raspberry Pi 4b. around the main processor heatsink. I had to remove the heatsink over the RAM, but the LAN and CPU heatsinks could stay. In general it seems stable. I connected it to a UniFi PoE switch. So far, so good. It's nice to be able to eliminate another cable. It also fits perfectly in the case that comes with the CanaKit. Just plug it in and plug in the LAN cable. Easy! Thanks very much!

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Works perfectly. Low Profile.

Works great! Takes up very little space. The only problem is that it covers the SDRAM chip, so you can't install a heatsink on top of the RAM. Otherwise it works on all my Pi 4s without problems.

Pros
  • Made by
Cons
  • Not everything is as good as it says

Poor quality control

As you can see from the photo, it was not possible to properly glue the thermal sync. A tube of hot melt glue costs 50% of the price of the goods. Maybe that's why they have so many flaws. These kinds of problems shouldn't exist, and they underline the "don't care" attitude.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Poor maintainability

Blow my new raspberry pi 4

blow my new raspberry pi 4 destroys POE controller defective Extra: noticed it's listed elsewhere on Revain for around $19 with lots of destructive reviews! It cost me a lot of damage!

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • Not trendy

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Almost everything is ok

Bad kit. Mismatched GPIO and POE pin.

No matter how thin the product is or how isolated the Pro version is when unstable. The Pro version sits too loosely on the pins, creating tiny directional shifts that cause the hat to wobble and lose contact. When this happens, the power to the Pi goes on and off. I ordered a replacement thinking it might be a one off issue but the replacement has the exact same fault.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • For old

Just like Pi! suitable for computers and accessories

Although it is designed for "Rospberry Pi" as stated on the box, it works well with Raspberry Pi 4b. Bathroom sink.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • All right
