Works well with RaspberryPi 3.

This is a good 802.3af adapter if you want to run your Raspberry Pi without a USB adapter and just want to power it via POE. Note that you need a "real" 802.3af POE switch or injector, not a "passive" POE injector (sometimes used by cheap cameras and some models of Unifi devices). I'm using it with a Linksys/Cisco managed POE switch and it worked right away without any tweaking. The only downside is that the USB connector protrudes slightly from the RPi; It is recommended to purchase a right…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Not the best

Works great with Wyze Cam v2

Edit: I have two of these and they only lasted about 6 months. When they were new they put out 5V, but now they've both dropped to 4.8V, which isn't enough to power the cameras. A month ago I placed a Wyze Cam v2 on my doorstep. I tried sending 5V to the camera via Ethernet, but the voltage drop caused a lot of problems with the camera. So I hooked it up to a 48V POE injector (sold separately for $9) and it works great. Features that previously didn't work due to power issues but now work…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • So-so

This device works great. I bought a total of 4 of these and have.

This unit works great. I bought 4 of these in total and had no problem powering them from the Raspberry Pi 3 B that I had connected to them. I'm ticking 1 star because they're only 10/100Mbps. It doesn't matter for Pi other than the new Raspberry Pi3B+ that I'm upgrading my cluster to. 3B+ now supports connection speeds in excess of 100Mbps, meaning these adapters will be your bandwidth bottleneck. The frustration of having to replace these blocks just because the manufacturer lowered the price

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Works great, Gigabit, connect to any 802.113af switch for power

Great for powering a computer with an Intel W5 flash drive through an 802.113af (PoE+) switch Make sure your power supply (switch/router) supports PoE+, it won't magically be powered by an old Ethernet switch or router. I am using Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 24 250W. It would be nice if the power cord was an adjustable length or a bit longer as I need to connect the ethernet port to a USB ethernet dongle which makes the power and ethernet cables two different lengths which looks a bit clunky though it…

Pros
  • Long range
Cons
  • Not secure

Works with Revain cloud camera

Everything worked as advertised. it works with Revain cloud camera. ACC requires 5.2V. USB powered sources are typically 4.8-5.2V and the maximum voltage is typically listed. This product outputs 5V and works great with ACC. I had connections for IP cameras on the ceiling and was looking for ways to power the ACC over Ethernet; it worked without any problems. This requires a layer 2 switch with POE support, which I chose. But from the manual there is another device called Power Injector where…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Frequency

Great POE splitter, Raspberry Pi 3B+ requires extra steps to operate

WARNING: WILL NOT WORK "OUT OF THE BOX" WITH RASPBERRY PI 3B+. Read Details I've used about 12 of these otherwise great devices to power Raspberry Pi 2 and 3. POE powered RPis save lives when you need to remotely reboot or install in places without power. I highly recommend this splitter for RPi 2/3B but NOT for RPi3B+. With the RPi 3B+ (the first to have a pseudo gigabit ethernet port), this splitter will NOT auto-negotiate the network connection (on a fresh new Raspbian image with all…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • sad packaging
