Product Description
UCTRONICS produces reliable PoE splitters to make micro USB devices “Power over Ethernet.” PoE splitter can save USB adapter wall plugs, extend powerline to where your Ethernet cable reaches, and make full use of extra PoE ports by converting them to micro USB. It’s a good companion for micro USB devices that needs Ethernet connection, or other micro USB devices that are away from the AC outlet. This item needs 802.3af compliant PoE Switches or injectors to work. The reviews and feedbacks from our users show that they have used PoE splitters on micro USB devices like:

Package including:
1 pcs 48V to 5V Active PoE Splitters Micro USB Power Plug
Features
Raspberry Pi PoE HAT alternative
Add plug-and-play PoE support to Raspberry Pi models even they are not 3 B+. Simple, easy, and cost-effective.
Extend Powerline with Ethernet Cable
PoE helps you deliver power to places where AC outlets are not around with a long Ethernet cable. This PoE splitter can power micro USB devices with a PoE source 300 feet away
Make Full Use of your PoE Switch
PoE splitters extend the possibilities of PoE switches. The other end of the PoE port does not have to be a 48V PoE network device, and it could be any micro USB devices.

5V/2.4A & 1000Mbps – Power micro-USB devices via an Ethernet cable, along with gigabit data transfer (which you can put aside if you only need power)
PoE HAT Alternative – Use no GPIO pins. Compatible with Raspberry Pi case with fan or add-on screen. Support Raspberry Pi 3b+ and previous models
Extend Powerline – Deliver power to micro USB devices without nearby AC outlets and upgrade them to PoE (Power over Ethernet) from up to 400 feet
Replace Power Supply – Remove the need for a separate power supply if the Ethernet cable is a must-have for your micro USB devices
Save Your Time – Plug and play compatibility and quick seller response. NOTE: an 802.3af compliant PoE injector/switch is required to use this device (not included)
Customers say
Customers like the performance, build quality, ease of use, and value of the network interface controller adapter. For example, they mention it works great, is reliable, and is a stable power supply. That said, opinions are mixed on power, connectivity, and cord length.

Excellent answer for Pi3s to add POE
Simple solution for the older Pi3 (or Pi2 for that matter) models that do not have the pin header for a “HAT” and, in addition, does not interfere with a case (as the HATs do) for obvious reasons so even if you have a newer model this might be a better answer depending on what you need and want. Works well; plug it in and off you go.

… location on my property where my cellular hotspot gets excellent reception, where the Pi can use a wifi …
I purchased a UCTRONICS PoE splitter in order to power a Raspberry Pi at a distant location (the location on my property where my cellular hotspot gets excellent reception, where the Pi can use a wifi bridge to ethernet and send the signal to my house as my primary internet). Performance beyond 10/100 was a priority, as in this location I can get 150 Mbps. After testing out my setup with an extension cord, I needed a way to power the system without running another cable out.Enter the UCTRONICS Poe splitter. My splitter arrived, and after extensive testing (with a TP Link PoE switch; with several individual PoE injectors; with several cables), I came to the conclusion that my splitter didn’t work, and needed to go back. I usually reach out to the sellers first in case I’ve missed something (while this device seems fairly straightforward, perhaps my injectors / switch were incompatible?). Arducam, the seller, responded extremely promptly, and sent a replacement splitter immediately – showing up two days later. This new splitter worked exactly as I hoped – gigabit speed, 2.4A output, plug-and-play, and worked with all of my injectors. It’s also smaller than many of my other brand of PoE splitters, so works better in the enclosure I’ve put it all in.I’ve had devices arrive from small to big manufacturers that haven’t worked, devices which have been excellent when I have a replacement. It all comes down to the response from the company involved, and my star rating reflects the working device and the excellent and prompt replies from Arducam to get a replacement out to me. Thank you Arducam!

Works very well for Raspberry Pi 3 B and B+
UPDATE 2/26/2019: Since my original review I have purchased many more of these PoE splitters and they have all worked flawlessly even for the more power hungry Raspberry Pi 3 B+. The first one I installed has been working for 4 months now and it is on a Raspberry Pi 3 B that has been running 24/7 due to the nature of the application I am using it for. Next week I am scheduled to deploy 6 more of these. If you need to power your Pi via PoE, you need this splitter.Original Review:I have multiple Raspberry Pi driving a 21.5 inch touchscreens that staff is using to do documentation on web based applications. In one location I do not have an outlet nearby and the 5V power supply cannot be extended much because of the voltage drop. So I used a 12V power supply and a 5V regulator but the raspberry was displaying a lightning icon on the upper right corner of the screen which means that it has a power issue and the touchscreen would not respond for a couple of seconds now and then. I tried 3 different 5V regulators and the problem would go away for a few days only to return along with the user complains. I believe that the regulators were failing to supply the required amps while the voltage was stable but a bit under the 5V mark (about 4.9 Volts). I was about to get an adjustable regulator and push it to 5.2V but I saw this PoE splitter and I figured, I will give it a try.We had a Netgear ProSafe GS108PE in the server room that was feeding 2 access points and it is about 100 feet away so I plugged this in one of the 4 PoE ports of that switch. It worked flawlessly immediately and it has been 3 weeks now that I have not heard any complains. I asked one of the users about a week ago and he told me that it has been working without any problems.I will be ordering many more as this saves me from having to find outlets for the Raspberry Pi and I have to install another 23 of them. Great product, good price… Highly recommended.

Older adapters working great newest on giving CRC errors and network drops
I have been running these PoE adapters for Pi’s and Hubitat’s for many years. I purchased a new Poe splitter for a new Hubitat. Within 24 hours started to get network drops and according to my network switch CRC errors. I would say this isn’t a endemic issue with the brand and product since the other ones I have deployed just work. This was probably a statistical defect. Return already processed with Amazon and new one is on it’s way.As for the splitter they just work. Build quality is solid, materials look and feel like they were properly selected for the device. So far I have used them on Pi 3b, Pi 4, security camera’s, and Hubitat’s. I am using them with a Unifi POE 16 and 8 port switches.

No more bricks
I bought four of these to power hubs and bridges in my home. These have worked as expected and do a good job of removing cord clutter. I like that is it a pigtail design so I can use the cord I already have without adding another.

Cheaper than a Pi POE Hat
Cheaper than a POE hat but causes the wiring to not be as clean. Doesn’t matter as PI’s are likely tethered out of sight anyway. Easier to replace than a POE hat, too. There’s no fan to go bad (as has happened with 1/5 of my POE Hats). I’m pleased with this purchase!

The product is great, and the company is great. Double Win!
This is an excellent upgrade to the older 100 Mbps version. This one was purchased for a very unique setup, where I have the USB power feeding a Pie Zero-W, and the network pigtail going in to my alarm panel. The item works great so far, and I have no complaints…I will add that Arducam (the seller I purchased from) is amazing. I had an older model (the 100Mbps) that i have had since January, and it quit working recently. I had needed another one of these for some time, but the failure of my other one prompted me to start looking. I decided to reach out to Arducam to see if there was a warranty or anything that could be done, and without hassle they indicated they would simply send me a new upgraded model for free! This quick response and service is what prompted me to buy again from them.Again – The product is great, and the company is great. Double Win!

Works great, as expected. These things are handy, if you have a lot of 5v devices to run and you have a powered network switch you can eliminate power bricks from the wall or power bar.
