ESCAM Passive PoE Injector Splitter 12V 5.5x2.1mm Connector

ESCAM PoE Injector Splitter – 12V with 5.5×2.1mm DC Cable Connector

Expand your home or office network with ease using the ESCAM PoE Injector Splitter. This passive PoE splitter is engineered for flexible network deployment, freeing you from the constraints of traditional power line routing. Whether you're setting up IP cameras, access points, or other network devices, this connector delivers reliable data and power over a single Ethernet cable.

Key Features

• Passive PoE (Simple Type): Uses pins 1, 2, 3, 6 for data transmission and pins 4, 5 (+) / 7, 8 (−) for power — no voltage conversion required.
• Wide Voltage Support: Compatible with 3V–57V DC input/output. Note: Not compatible with standard 48V PoE switches or PoE switch-to-12V camera setups — please contact customer service for standard PoE equipment options.
• 5.5×2.1mm DC Connectors: Both the DC input header and DC male output feature shielded 5.5×2.1mm connectors with 13cm cable lengths for tidy, secure connections.
• Crystal Head Protection: Both ends include protective crystal head designs to guard against wear and signal interference.
• Plug-and-Play Setup: No tools or configuration needed — ready to use straight out of the box.
• Ideal for Home & Office Networks: Perfect for IP cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE-compatible devices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a passive PoE injector/splitter and how does the ESCAM 12V model work?

A: A passive PoE (Power over Ethernet) injector/splitter allows you to transmit both data and DC power over a single Ethernet cable without requiring an active PoE switch. The ESCAM 12V model uses pins 1, 2, 3, 6 for data and pins 4, 5 (+) / 7, 8 (−) for power delivery. It supports 3V–57V DC but does NOT convert voltage — input and output voltages are the same. It is not compatible with standard 48V PoE switches.

Q: Is this PoE splitter compatible with standard PoE switches?

A: No. This is a passive (simple-type) PoE splitter and is not compatible with standard 802.3af/at PoE switches that output 48V. It is designed for use with passive PoE injectors and devices operating in the 3V–57V DC range. If you need a standard PoE-compatible solution, please contact customer service for the appropriate equipment.

Q: What devices can I connect with the ESCAM PoE Injector Splitter?

A: This splitter is ideal for passive PoE-compatible IP cameras, wireless access points, network switches, and other devices that accept a 5.5×2.1mm DC power connector and operate within the 3V–57V DC range over an Ethernet connection.

Q: What is the cable and connector specification for this PoE splitter?

A: Both the DC input header and the DC male output end feature 5.5×2.1mm shielded connectors with 13cm cable lengths. Each end includes a protective crystal head design to ensure a secure, interference-resistant connection.
