POE-164 Overview

PoE with High Power, Security, Stability and Easy Installation Features
As the applications of Power over Ethernet have expanded to home users from the IT industry. PLANET has developed a new Single-Port PoE+ Injector which meets the requirements of both the IT industry and home users for high wattage output and easy installation, respectively.

The POE-164 is a wall-mountable single-port 802.3at PoE+ injector with internal power supply in compact housing. Carrying both Ethernet data and power simultaneously, the POE-164 helps users to utilize just one Ethernet cable to easily install and deploy IP camera, wireless AP or VoIP phone networking in environments where power outlet is hard to find.

It offers an affordable, safe and reliable power solution for cost-conscious business and home users deploying Power over Ethernet networks.

30-watt Power over Ethernet Capability
The PoE in-line power following the IEEE 802.3at/af Power over Ethernet Plus standard makes the POE-164 able to deliver Ethernet data and up to 30 watts of power to remote PoE compliant powered devices (PDs) over one Cat.5E/6 Ethernet cable. The POE-164 provides more flexibility in power requirement for all kinds of PDs at affordable installation costs. Designed especially for higher power required network equipment such as PTZ (Pan, Tilt & Zoom) speed dome, high power outdoor AP can be powered and work normally just through a single UTP cable with PoE power injector, the POE-164.

All-in-One and Compact Size Design
With concepts of "Easy to install”, “Plug and Play” and "Simple troubleshooting" for business and home users, the POE-164 is an all-in-one designed single-port PoE+ injector with internal power supply. In the compact size housing, the POE-164 provides one 100-240V AC input socket on its front panel, two LEDs (System POWER and PoE ACTIVE ) on the top side and two RJ-45 ports (POE port and LAN port) on the rear panel. Simply plug in the Ethernet cables and power cord, and the POE-164 is ready to provide high speed network communication and high power PoE+ injector functions simultaneously with no need of software configuration

Quick and Easy Cabling Installation for PoE Network Deployment
Complying with both 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards, the POE-164 allows users to flexibly deploy standard and high powered devices to transfer data and power simultaneously through one Ethernet cable for up to 100 meters. The POE-164 frees the security IP camera and wireless AP deployment from restrictions of power outlet locations and the additional AC wiring. It thus reduces cables and eliminates the need for electrical outlets on the wall, ceiling or any unreachable place, and most of all, it reduces installation time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How much power does the PLANET POE-164 deliver per port? +
The PLANET POE-164 is a single-port PoE injector that complies with the IEEE 802.3af standard. It is designed to provide up to 15.4 watts of power, making it ideal for standard Fast Ethernet devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones that require consistent, reliable power delivery over existing Cat5/5e cabling.
Does the POE-164 support Gigabit Ethernet speeds? +
No, this specific model is engineered for Fast Ethernet connectivity. It supports data transmission speeds of 10/100 Mbps. If your network infrastructure relies on Gigabit throughput, you should consider upgrading to a Gigabit-compliant PoE injector to avoid creating a bottleneck in your data flow.
Can the PLANET POE-164 be used for high-power devices like PTZ cameras? +
This device adheres to the IEEE 802.3af standard, which provides up to 15.4 watts. While it is perfect for standard static cameras, it may not meet the power requirements of high-performance PTZ cameras or outdoor heaters that demand the higher power output provided by IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) or 802.3bt standards.
Is the POE-164 compatible with non-PoE network switches? +
Absolutely. The POE-164 functions as an intermediary device. You connect your non-PoE switch to the 'Data' port of the injector, and the 'PoE' port then outputs both data and power to your end device. This allows you to integrate PoE-enabled endpoints into an existing network without replacing your core switching hardware.
What is the maximum distance for data and power transmission with this injector? +
When using standard Cat5 or Cat5e Ethernet cabling, the maximum transmission distance for both data and power is 100 meters (328 feet). For optimal performance and to maintain voltage stability, ensure you are using high-quality cabling and keep the total cable run within these specified industry standards.
How do I manage the settings on the PLANET POE-164? +
The POE-164 is an unmanaged, plug-and-play device designed for simple, immediate deployment. It does not require software configuration, IP addresses, or complex firmware management. Once connected to a power source and your network hardware, it automatically detects compatible PoE devices and initializes power delivery based on the connected device's requirements.
Is the POE-164 suitable for wall-mounting in tight spaces? +
Its compact design makes the POE-164 highly versatile for deployments where space is limited. The unit is easily placed on a desktop or integrated into wall-mounted enclosures near the powered endpoint. Ensure the installation location provides adequate ventilation, as consistent power conversion generates heat that should be allowed to dissipate.
What happens if I connect a device that does not support PoE? +
The POE-164 features built-in auto-detection technology. Before injecting power, the device performs a handshake to verify that the connected peripheral is IEEE 802.3af compatible. If a non-PoE device is detected, the injector will provide data connectivity only, ensuring your hardware remains protected from accidental electrical damage.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for multiple POE-164 units? +
