DPE-301GI PoE+ Injector

D-Link's DPE-301GI 1-Port PoE Injector is used to provide I.T. Professionals with the benefits of Power over Ethernet (PoE), even when other devices in the network do not support it. With PoE technology, low voltage DC power and Ethernet data signals are combined on a single network cable, which facilitates powering of end devices like IP Cameras, wireless Access Points (APs), and VoIP Phones. This reduces cable clutter, eliminates the need for dedicated electrical outlets on the wall, ceiling, or other unreachable places, reduces installation time, and lowers costs.

The DPE-301GI device supports Gigabit speeds, and can connect to 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps through the RJ-45 interface. This device also supports the IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE/PoE+ standards, which ensures interoperability with other standards-based PoE and PoE+ devices. Small and compact, the DPE-301GI is lightweight, has integrated mounting slots, and is easy to install.

The DPE-301GI provides a power and data connection to a PoE device over a single network cable. It allows I.T. Professionals to mount their PoE devices virtually anywhere in a building, such as on ceilings or near entryways, and eliminates the need for nearby power outlets and attached power supplies. The DPE-301GI combines electrical power with a Gigabit network connection and produces a Gigabit PoE signal, allowing a single Ethernet cable to carry both data and power to a device.

Also known as a "midspan PSE", the DPE-301GI PoE injector can be used when deploying a multi-port PoE switch is impractical or not feasible. It has two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports. One port is for LAN IN, which is the network connection,typically connected to a non-PoE switch or router. The other port is for PoE OUT, which is the connection that provides both power and data signal to the end device (PD). The DPE-301GI can be located anywhere on the Ethernet link, although it's typically placed near the switch/router.

• IEEE 802.3at/af compliant, up to 30W power
• Offers a compact, powerful and cost-effective solution for PoE/PoE+ devices, giving you maximum deployment flexibility
• Make the most out of your network
• Installed wireless access points and network video cameras on walls or ceilings where power outlets are not available
• Quick and easy installation
• Plug-and-play installation makes setup simple, with no software or additional steps required, allowing you to get up and running right away

PoE Injector and PoE Splitter Tandem

Both the DPE-301GI (injector) and DPE-301GS (splitter) can be used together, as a complete PoE transport system. This is especially useful when a PoE switch is not available, and the end device is not PoE capable, but the Network Administrator still prefers the benefits of PoE. Simply install the injector close to the network switch, install the splitter close to the end device, and plug in the cables.

Extend Your Existing Wireless Network

The IEEE 802.3at (PoE+)/802.3af (PoE) compliant DPE-301GI Gigabit PoE+ Injector is designed to supply data and up to 30 watts of power to PoE-enabled devices such as network cameras and wireless access points.

The DPE-301GI gives you the ability to mount your PoE device virtually anywhere in a building, such as on ceilings or near entryways, by eliminating the need for a nearby power outlet.

D-Link's DPE-301GI combines electrical power with a Gigabit network connection to produce a Gigabit Power over Ethernet (PoE) signal for transmission over a single Ethernet cable, to up to 100 metres1 distance.

Examples where the DPE-301GI is ideal include powering network devices such as professional network cameras with pan/tilt/zoom, night vision or internal heating/cooling features, as well as the latest wireless access points that support the high throughput 802.11ac standard.

Cost Efficient Flexibility

Deploying the DPE-301GI saves both installation costs and equipment costs, allowing a single RJ-45 Ethernet cable to carry both power and data to each device. This PoE solution frees network devices from the restrictions of power availability by removing the need for a local power source. This reduces cable clutter, eliminates the need for dedicated electrical outlets in inconvenient places, and cuts down the time required for deployment.

High Speed Connectivity

The DPE-301GI Gigabit PoE+ Injector is designed to be deployed in situations where high bandwidth is demanded. Examples where the DPE-301GI is ideal include powering network devices such as professional network cameras with pan/tilt/zoom, night vision or internal heating/cooling features, as well as the latest wireless access points that support the high throughput 802.11ac standard.
