Why choose it

This converter eliminates the need for separate power supplies and long AC runs, reducing installation cost and clutter. It leverages existing PoE infrastructure to deliver both power and Gigabit Ethernet over a single cable, ensuring reliable performance for connected USB-C devices. The compact, durable ABS housing and integrated 15cm USB-C cable make it easy to deploy in tight spaces.

Ideal use cases

• Powering USB-C devices in locations without power outlets, such as ceiling-mounted projectors or access points
• Connecting and charging tablets or Raspberry Pi units in kiosks, digital signage, or industrial control panels
• Extending USB 2.0 peripherals over long distances using existing PoE network cabling
• Simplifying cable management in conference rooms and classrooms by using a single Ethernet drop for data and power

Good to know

The converter is plug-and-play, requiring no drivers or configuration. It supports PoE and PoE+ input, automatically negotiating the available power. The USB-C output provides up to 15W, sufficient for most low-power devices. Ensure your PoE switch or injector meets the IEEE 802.3af/at standard. For optimal performance, use Cat5e or higher cabling.
