Deployment / Use Cases
This injector is ideal for environments where electrical outlets are scarce or inconvenient, but network connectivity is readily available. It eliminates the need for separate power adapters near each device, simplifying installation and reducing cable clutter.
Common applications include powering ceiling-mounted wireless access points in offices or schools, outdoor IP cameras with heaters or blowers for extreme weather operation, and digital signage displays in retail or hospitality settings. The dual-voltage input makes it suitable for international deployments or facilities with mixed electrical systems.
Enterprise Wireless
Power high-performance Wi-Fi 6/6E access points that require more than 30W, particularly in dense user environments or areas with multiple simultaneous streams.
Surveillance & Security
Support advanced PTZ cameras with integrated heaters, wipers, or infrared illuminators that exceed standard PoE power budgets.
Physical Profile
The compact form factor (5.90" x 2.56" x 1.34") allows flexible placement on desks, shelves, or in network cabinets. The 354.4g weight ensures stability without excessive bulk. The design incorporates ventilation for heat dissipation during continuous high-power operation. Mounting options include desktop placement or optional rack mounting with appropriate accessories (not included).
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.34" (34.04 mm), 2.56" (65.02 mm), 354.4 g. This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
What PoE standards does this injector support?
The EPA5090HBT supports IEEE 802.3af (PoE), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.3bt (PoE++) standards. This includes compatibility with Type 3 and Type 4 devices under the 802.3bt specification, allowing it to deliver up to 90W for power-hungry equipment while maintaining backward compatibility with older PoE devices.
What devices can be powered with 90W output?
This injector can power high-demand networking equipment such as Wi-Fi 6/6E access points with multiple radios, PTZ security cameras with integrated heaters or wipers, digital signage displays, and some small network switches. Always verify the power requirements of your specific device to ensure compatibility with the 90W maximum output.
What input voltage does this PoE injector require?
The injector accepts both 120V AC and 230V AC input, making it suitable for use in North America (120V) and many international locations (230V). This dual-voltage capability provides flexibility for deployments in different geographic regions or facilities with mixed electrical systems.
What are the data speeds supported by the Ethernet ports?
Both the input and output ports support 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2.5GbE) speeds. This provides sufficient bandwidth for modern high-throughput devices without creating network bottlenecks, while maintaining compatibility with standard Gigabit Ethernet equipment through auto-negotiation.
What certifications does this product have?
The injector is certified to IEC 62328-1:2014, UL 62328-1, FCC Subpart 15 Class B, EN 55032:2012/AC:2013, and EN 55024:2010 standards. These certifications ensure compliance with international safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements for commercial and industrial use.
How is this PoE injector typically deployed?
Common deployments include ceiling-mounted wireless access points in offices or educational facilities, outdoor security cameras with environmental controls, digital signage in retail environments, and any location where separate power outlets are unavailable or impractical. The injector connects between your network switch and the powered device, delivering both data and power over a single Ethernet cable.
