InLine 44432E PoE adapter Gigabit Ethernet 55 V 85 W

The InLine 44432E PoE adapter Gigabit Ethernet 55 V 85 W is an outdoor-ready PoE adapter and extender designed to expand network infrastructure while simultaneously supplying power to connected devices over long distances. Featuring Gigabit Ethernet support with data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s, this device utilizes a 55 V PoE voltage and an 85 W output power distributed across three RJ-45 ports. Engineered with robust IP67 and IK10 certifications, it ensures reliable network connections in demanding environments, protecting against dust, moisture, and mechanical impact over cable distances up to 100 meters.

Advantages

This outdoor PoE adapter and extender allows multiple network devices to be powered via a single network cable by supporting IEEE 802.3bt standards. It features two PoE output ports rated at 60 W and 30 W respectively, enabling the simultaneous power supply of different end devices. Operating entirely through Power over Ethernet without requiring any additional local power supply, it facilitates installation in hard-to-reach locations. The rugged housing with IP67 and IK10 ratings guarantees dependable performance under severe weather conditions and physical stress, while the plug-and-play design allows for rapid integration into existing network setups without complex configuration.

Suitable for

• Extending Gigabit Ethernet networks in outdoor environments up to 100 meters
• Powering and connecting outdoor IP security cameras requiring high wattage
• Deploying wireless access points in areas lacking local electrical outlets
• Expanding industrial network topologies with IP67 and IK10 durability requirements

When it may not be suitable

This device may not be suitable for indoor environments where standard non-weatherproof network equipment is sufficient and more cost-effective. Additionally, it requires an adequate PoE power source to function as an extender and cannot supply power to devices if the incoming power budget is insufficient.

Key specifications

• Gigabit Ethernet data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s
• 3 RJ-45 ports including 1 PoE input and 2 PoE outputs
• Total PoE output power of 85 W (Port 1: 60 W, Port 2: 30 W)
• PoE voltage of 55 V supporting IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at, and IEEE 802.3bt
• Maximum operating distance of 100 m using Cat.5, Cat.5e, or higher cables
• IP67 and IK10 environmental protection certifications
• Surge protection up to ±2 kV differential and ±6 kV common mode

How to use

To use the InLine 44432E, connect the incoming network cable with PoE source to the designated RJ-45 input port. Connect up to two compatible end devices to the RJ-45 output ports using standard Ethernet cables such as Cat.5e or higher, ensuring the total power consumption does not exceed the available output limits. Mount the device securely in the desired location using its compact form factor, taking advantage of its weather-resistant housing for outdoor deployments. Verify connectivity using the integrated green LED indicators on the unit.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing network switch or injector can supply sufficient input power for the extender
• Check the power consumption requirements of your end devices to ensure compatibility with the 60 W and 30 W port limits
• Confirm that the installation distance between network nodes does not exceed the 100-meter limit
• Evaluate environmental conditions to ensure the IP67 and IK10 ratings meet your deployment needs

Usage recommendations: Ensure the connected Ethernet cables meet Cat.5e specifications or higher to maintain stable Gigabit transmission speeds and reliable power delivery over the maximum 100-meter distance. Protect unused ports from environmental exposure if applicable, and periodically inspect the mounting integrity in demanding outdoor locations.
