ESCAM 2.5KV Active PoE Splitter 48V to 5V 4A Micro USB – 12W

ESCAM Active PoE Splitter – 2.5KV Anti-Interference, 48V to 5V/4A/12W

Power your Raspberry Pi, CCTV cameras, and other compact devices cleanly and efficiently with the ESCAM 2.5KV Active Power over Ethernet (PoE) Splitter. Designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike, this robust splitter converts standard 48V PoE input down to a stable 5V/4A (12W) output via a Micro USB plug — all while featuring impressive 2.5KV anti-interference isolation to protect your sensitive equipment from electrical noise and surges.

Key Features

• 2.5KV Anti-Interference Isolation: Built-in 2.5KV electrical isolation barrier keeps your connected devices protected from power line noise, ground loops, and transient surges.
• 48V PoE Input → 5V/4A/12W Output: Accepts standard 802.3af/at PoE input (48V) and delivers a steady, regulated 5V at up to 4A (12W) — ideal for Raspberry Pi boards, IP cameras, and other low-voltage devices.
• Active PoE Technology: Uses active negotiation for efficient, reliable power delivery — not a passive splitter — ensuring compatibility with standard PoE switches and injectors.
• Micro USB Plug Output: Plug output connects directly to Raspberry Pi, compact IP cameras, and other Micro USB-powered devices with no adapters needed.
• Compact & Durable Build: Slim, lightweight housing fits neatly into network enclosures, junction boxes, or open installations without cluttering your setup.
• Plug-and-Play Setup: No drivers or configuration required — connect your Ethernet cable and Micro USB device and you're up and running instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What devices is the ESCAM 2.5KV Active PoE Splitter compatible with?

A: The ESCAM Active PoE Splitter is compatible with any device powered via Micro USB that requires 5V/4A or less — including Raspberry Pi (all models with Micro USB power), compact IP/CCTV cameras, and similar low-voltage electronics. It works with any standard 802.3af or 802.3at PoE switch or injector on the input side.

Q: What does "Active PoE Splitter" mean, and why does it matter?

A: An active PoE splitter actively negotiates power with your PoE switch using the IEEE 802.3af/at protocol, ensuring safe and efficient power delivery. Unlike passive splitters — which simply tap the wire without negotiation — active splitters are compatible with standard managed and unmanaged PoE switches and provide more stable, regulated output voltage to your device.

Q: Why is the 2.5KV anti-interference isolation important?

A: The 2.5KV electrical isolation barrier inside this splitter protects your connected device from electrical noise, voltage spikes, and ground-loop interference that can travel through Ethernet cabling in industrial, outdoor, or multi-device environments. This is especially critical for sensitive single-board computers like Raspberry Pi and always-on camera systems.

Q: Do I need any special tools or software to install this PoE splitter?

A: No. Installation is completely plug-and-play. Simply connect the Ethernet cable from your PoE switch or injector into the splitter's input port, then connect the Micro USB output to your device. The splitter is immediately operational — no drivers, software, or configuration required.
