Passive POE Splitter RJ45 Injector Ethernet Adapter – 2 Pack
Passive POE Splitter & RJ45 Injector Ethernet Adapter
Power your IP cameras and other network devices without the hassle of extra power cables. This Passive Power over Ethernet (POE) Splitter Cable Adapter lets you convert standard non-POE devices to POE-enabled setups in seconds — no special switches or active equipment required. Comes as a pair (2 pieces) for a complete injector + splitter solution right out of the box.
Key Features

What Is Passive POE?
Passive POE simply means power is transmitted directly over the Ethernet cable without negotiation — the voltage in equals the voltage out. This makes it an affordable, plug-and-play solution for powering IP cameras and similar low-voltage devices over existing network cabling. Learn more about network wiring standards at NIST.gov.
Ideal For
- Outdoor & indoor IP security cameras
- Wireless access points
- Network switches and hubs
- Any device requiring POE conversion via RJ45
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the Passive POE Splitter RJ45 Injector Adapter do?
A: This passive POE adapter allows you to send both power and data over a single Ethernet (RJ45) cable. The injector combines power and data at one end, while the splitter separates them at the device end — enabling non-POE devices like IP cameras to receive power directly through the network cable without a dedicated power outlet nearby.
Q: How many pieces are included in one purchase?
A: Each purchase includes 1 pair, which contains 2 pieces — one POE injector and one POE splitter — giving you everything you need for a complete passive POE setup.
Q: Is this adapter suitable for outdoor use?
A: Yes. The adapter features a waterproof construction that withstands splashes and rain, making it well-suited for outdoor IP camera installations and other exterior network setups.
Q: What is the difference between passive and active POE?
A: Passive POE passes power directly through the cable at the same voltage it receives, with no negotiation between devices. Active POE (802.3af/at) involves electronic handshaking to deliver the correct voltage. Passive POE is simpler and more affordable but requires compatible devices that accept the input voltage directly.
