PoE injector MicroConnect MC-POEINJ-EU — single-port power over Ethernet injector

The MC-POEINJ-EU is a single-port Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector for European mains that delivers 48V DC over a standard Ethernet cable to compatible devices such as wireless access points, IP cameras and VoIP phones. The compact indoor unit supplies power where mains outlets are limited and supports gigabit data rates.

Advantages

The injector complies with IEEE 802.3af to provide standardized and safe power delivery. Built-in powered device (PD) detection and automatic classification prevent damage to non‑compatible equipment and ensure correct power allocation. Support for 10/100/1000 Mbps data rates and a 100–240V AC input range ensures compatibility with common network devices and European voltages.

Key specifications

• PoE standard: IEEE 802.3af compliant
• Output: 48V DC, 0.32A (15.4W)
• Transmission pairs: two-pair Ethernet output
• Data rates supported: 10/100/1000 Mbps
• Input voltage: 100–240V AC
• Maximum cable distance: up to 100 meters
• Port count: single-port injector

How to use

Connect the injector to mains power (100–240V AC). Link the network data source (switch or router) to the data-only Ethernet port, then connect the powered device to the PoE output port using a standard Ethernet cable, keeping the total cable length within 100 meters. The unit performs automatic PD detection and classification before supplying power, allowing immediate plug-and-play operation for compatible devices.

Recommendations

Use Cat5e or higher category Ethernet cable, confirm device compatibility with IEEE 802.3af, and do not exceed the 100 m cable limit. For installations exposed to moisture or outdoors, use suitable enclosures or IP-rated equipment.
