PoE Patch Panel Gigabit Shielded 8-Port OEM POE-PAN8-GB 802.3af/802.3at

PoE Patch Panel Gigabit Shielded 8-Port (OEM POE-PAN8-GB) is a rack-mounted pass-through panel that integrates eight gigabit-capable passive PoE injectors. It accepts 12–57 V DC input (via a 2.1 mm DC jack or a panel-mounted Phoenix/terminal connector) and supplies up to 1 A per port over two spare pairs of the Ethernet cable. The unit provides separate shielded RJ45 ports for Data (LAN in) and combined Data+Power (out) to simplify centralized power distribution for IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones and other powered devices.

Advantages

This shielded 8-port PoE patch panel offers a compact and universal solution to feed multiple remote devices from a single DC source. It supports a wide input voltage range (12–57 V) and delivers up to 1 A per port, while using two unused Ethernet pairs (4/5 positive, 7/8 negative or reversed polarity). Metal shielding and RJ45 connectors maintain Gigabit throughput (10/100/1000 Mbps) and help reduce interference within structured cabling racks. LED indicators show power/polarity status per port. The panel is simple to insert between an existing switch and patch panel to create a central PoE power distribution point.

Suitable for

• IP cameras and surveillance systems
• Wireless access points and outdoor radios (when powered via spare pairs)
• VoIP phones and desktop PoE devices
• Small rack or cabinet deployments requiring centralized PoE distribution

How to use

Install the PoE patch panel in a rack or cabinet and connect the Data input RJ45 ports to your switch or hub. Provide DC power to the panel via the 2.1 mm DC jack or the Phoenix terminal, observing the allowed 12–57 V input range. Connect the Data+Power (out) RJ45 jacks to the existing patch panel or directly to Ethernet runs that lead to the powered devices. The panel injects power over the spare pairs (4/5 and 7/8) so no changes are required on the switch data ports. Monitor the LED indicators to verify power presence and polarity per port.

Usage recommendations

Power supply is not included. Select a DC power source with sufficient voltage and total current capacity for all connected devices (sum of per-port currents up to 1 A each). Verify cable category and length to ensure reliable Gigabit data and safe power delivery. Avoid exceeding the specified operating temperature and humidity ranges.
