TL-POE2412G Gigabit Passive PoE Adapter 24VDC
Overview
The TL-POE2412G Gigabit Passive PoE Adapter 24VDC is a passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter designed to supply both power and data to compatible network devices over a single Ethernet cable. Unlike IEEE 802.3af/at/bt PoE injectors, this passive adapter operates at a fixed 24V DC output, making it ideal for devices such as Ubiquiti, MikroTik, and TP-Link CPEs, access points, and other network hardware that require 24V passive PoE power.
How to Install and Use
-
Unbox the TL-POE2412G and verify all included components.
-
Connect the adapter to a power outlet using the provided power adapter.
-
Use an Ethernet cable to connect the LAN port of the adapter to a router or switch.
-
Connect a second Ethernet cable from the PoE port of the adapter to the passive PoE-enabled device (e.g., outdoor CPE, access point).
-
Ensure correct voltage requirements before connecting to prevent damage to non-compatible devices.
-
Verify LED indicators to confirm power and data transmission.
-
Device is now powered and ready for operation.
Services, Licenses, and Plans
The TL-POE2412G Gigabit Passive PoE Adapter is a standalone hardware device that does not require any software licenses or service plans. It is a plug-and-play solution for providing passive PoE power to compatible devices.
Differences Between Passive PoE Adapters and Active PoE Injectors
| Device Type | Function | Best Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Passive PoE Adapter | Provides a fixed 24V DC power output | Ideal for 24V passive PoE devices like outdoor CPEs and APs |
| Active PoE Injector | Automatically negotiates power per IEEE 802.3af/at/bt | Suitable for PoE-compliant devices requiring dynamic power management |
