Single-Port 10 Gbit/s PoE Power over Ethernet PLANET POE-176-95

PLANET POE-176-95 is a single-port 10Gbps 802.3bt Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector that provides up to 95 watts of DC power over standard Cat.5e/Cat.6 Ethernet cabling while carrying high-speed data through two 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10GBASE-T RJ45 ports. The injector supports the IEEE 802.3bt four-pair PoE system to power devices that require higher wattage, and it is backward compatible with 802.3af/at powered devices.

Advantages

The POE-176-95 supplies up to 95W using all four twisted pairs of Cat.5e/Cat.6 cabling and supports multi-gigabit data rates up to 10Gbps via its RJ45 interfaces. Its Force mode enables powering non‑standard PDs with up to 60W when necessary, and front-panel LEDs report real‑time PoE power usage to simplify monitoring. The unit is compact, plug-and-play, requires no software configuration, and includes a single 52–56V DC input.

Suitable for

• PoE lighting installations
• PoE PTZ speed-dome cameras and other high-power surveillance cameras
• Wireless access points and remote digital signage displays
• Thin clients, AIO touch PCs and other high-power network devices

Key specifications

• Standard: IEEE 802.3bt (backward compatible with 802.3af/at)
• PoE output power: up to 95 W over four pairs
• Force mode output: up to 60 W for non-standard PDs
• Data ports: two 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10GBASE-T RJ45
• Cable type: Cat.5e / Cat.6
• Max cable distance: up to 100 meters
• Power input: 52–56V DC
• Indicators: Power, PoE-in-use, Force mode, PoE power usage LEDs

How to use

Connect the injector's DC power jack to a compatible 52–56V DC power source, plug the network switch or upstream device into the Ethernet port, and connect the powered device to the Ethernet+DC port using Cat.5e/Cat.6 cable. The unit will automatically negotiate data rates and supply PoE power up to the supported level. To power non-standard devices, enable Force mode according to the product manual; monitor the front-panel LEDs for real-time power usage and connection status.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use quality Cat.5e or Cat.6 cables, keep cable runs within 100 meters, and ensure the connected PDs support the required input voltages. Reserve Force mode for legacy or non‑standard devices and consult device specifications to avoid overloading.
