PoE Power Supply 100-240V AC, 0.5A Output 48V DC

Description

What it is

The ARD001289 PoE power supply is a device that allows Ethernet devices to be powered from an alternating current (AC) source between 100 V and 240 V, providing 48V DC power with a maximum current of 0.5 A.

Features

• PoE Power Input: 100-240 V AC
• Output: 48 V DC at 0.5 A

What it is for

Ideally used to power Arduino systems and electronic components that require PoE power. This power supply is particularly useful for DIY projects such as home security systems, smart sensors, or any other device that requires a stable and efficient power source.

Tutorial: How to use PoE Power Input

This PoE power supply allows you to power Ethernet devices from an alternating current (AC) source between 100 V and 240 V. Ideal for DIY projects such as security systems, smart sensors, or any other device requiring PoE power. It is particularly useful for those building smart home or office networks without having to worry about complicated electrical installations.

What you need

• Ethernet cable
• Device to be powered (e.g., a PoE router)
• Network connection

Steps

1. Connect the Ethernet cable to the device to be powered.
2. Run the cable through the PoE injector input.
3. Plug one end of the cable into an AC outlet between 100 V and 240 V.
4. Check the power supply connection with a multimeter to ensure it provides 48 V DC at the output.
5. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the network device or PoE router.
6. Configure the device to use the power supplied by the PoE injector.
