D-Link’s DPE-301GI 1-Port Gigabit Power over Ethernet (PoE) Injector 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. Location of the injector does not impact the maximum 100m (328ft.) distance from the switch/router to the end device. Support for IEEE 802.3at ensures the DPE-301GI can power PoE+ devices up to 30W, such as high power 802.11ac APs and IP cameras with PTZ motors, heaters and blowers.
