By using the existing Category 5 Ethernet cabling to deliver power to any standard 5 volt access point or other network device, you save the time, hassle, and expense of running AC power to the access point's installation location. The best position for a wireless access point is usually on the ceiling, in the center of the area to be covered. Unfortunately, there's usually no easily accessible AC power plugs available in these locations. With the Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit, installing the access point in these preferred spots becomes far less trouble. The "Injector" sends both power and data over one Category 5 cable to your access point, wireless router or bridge. Then the tiny "Splitter", placed at the remote location, separates the network data and DC power back into two cables, and delivers them to the access point. The Injector can also be used by itself with POE-enabled network devices that accept 48 volts directly on a POE port. When it's time to expand your wireless network, let the Linksys Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit simplify your installation.

Devices with inline power can accept both a data stream and power signal from the same Ethernet cable, once the Injector's built-in Ethernet cable is connected to an RJ-45 port and it's power port is connected, via the power adapter, to a power jack. The Splitter The Power Over Ethernet Adapter's Splitter is used when you wish to supply power over Ethernet to a device that doesn't have inline power. These are typical devices that require power to be connected via the power port. The Splitter takes the combined power and data stream from the Ethernet cable connected to the Injector and splits this stream back into one data stream (in the Ethernet cable) and one power stream, via the power cable, which are then connected to any switch, access point, or networking device that does not have inline power Chapter 3: Connecting the Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit The Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit is used to move your access point, wireless router or bridge to a remote location that is not close to a power outlet. The diagram in Figure 3-1 shows how the Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit is connected to your wireless network. Once connected, the kit will transmit data and power over the Ethernet cable. Figure 2-3 Figure 3-1 2 3 For devices using conventional power connections To connect the Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit: 1) Connect the kit's power adapter to the Injector and plug the power adapter into a surge protector or power socket.
