💡 UCTRONICS Active PoE Splitter 12V - 2.1mm DC Barrel Jack for IP Camera, Arduino, Ethernet, and Wireless Access Point - IEEE 802.3af/at compliant Review

Don't be like me. The product worked and worked well. I was an idiot trying to use it for the Philips Hue Homebridge. The device is a friend of my Home Bridge when I plug 12V into a 6V device. DO NOT USE THIS FOR PHILIPS HUE HOMEBRIDGE.

Please note this is a 10/100MB device. You don't get a gigabit connection with it. That's good for cameras and other endpoints, but a bottleneck for a Wi-Fi hotspot. Speed limit information was included in the product description but not in the pre-description. Another thing to note: the device supports the 802.3af and 802.3at standards. A big plus if you need more power on your end device.

All I had to do was unplug the 12V power to the camera from the wall, connect an active network cable to this adapter, connect power from the adapter to the camera, and connect ethernet from the adapter to the camera. Everything came as expected. The only question I really have is how long it will last. Needless to say, no power can create it out of thin air. You must have a POE switch or some sort of power…

The unit itself has no markings other than the company that made it (no performance data with screen printed etc .) . I have no idea if this is a POE or POE+ device (I ordered the POE+ version as I needed 24W peak power). The only documentation I received was a piece of paper with the same illustrations as the product images; however (and this is one of the main reasons I'm not sure which device I have) is that the document claims it is a 5v 2A POE (802.3af, not 802.3at) device. I used a…
