Ubiquiti 24V 12W PoE Adapter | POE-24-12W Passive Injector
Ubiquiti 24V Passive Power over Ethernet Injector (POE-24-12W)
The Ubiquiti POE-24-12W is an enterprise-grade, single-port passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector designed to deliver highly stable, continuous power to remote network devices over standard copper cabling. Engineered as a dedicated, fixed-voltage power supply for carrier-tier client equipment, this high-reliability adapter injects 24V DC power at up to 0.5 Amps directly into the unused pairs of a network cable.
This method eliminates the requirement for localised mains sockets at the final mounting point, streamlining the deployment of high-altitude outdoor antennas and remote access points.
Hardened Device Defense & Clamping Surge Protection
Designed to serve as a reliable barrier against electrical spikes, the POE-24-12W incorporates an advanced internal shielding matrix to isolate connected hardware from external voltage line anomalies:
-
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Mitigation: When deployed alongside high-quality shielded category cabling and grounded mains connections, the injector provides essential earth grounding pathing. This system absorbs lethal electrostatic fields before they can travel up the tower to damage vulnerable radio circuits.
-
Sub-Nanosecond Surge Response: Utilises a highly sensitive, signature-based clamping mechanism. If an operational voltage spike occurs on the data lines, the adapter clamps the excess transient voltage within less than 1 nanosecond, safely shifting up to 1,500A of power surge discharge straight away to the earth line.
Wire-Frame Interface & Pin Configuration Layout
The compact chassis splits data-only and combined power-data paths via independent, high-isolation RJ45 shielded terminal sockets:
| Physical Port Label | Cable Core Connection Role | Operational Pinout Mapping | Electrical Voltage Profile |
| LAN Port | Inbound Data Only (Connects to Switch or PC) | Standard Ethernet Signals | 0V DC (Pure Data) |
| PoE Port | Combined Data & Power Output (Connects to AP) | Pins 4, 5 (+) and Pins 7, 8 (-) | Fixed 24V DC (0.5A Continuous) |
Form-Factor Versatility & airGateway Docking Alignment
-
Native airGateway Mechanical Support: The top face of the housing features a specialised interlocking guide track system. This allows the adapter to act as a physical base dock for the airGateway wireless indoor module series, creating a seamless, single-unit wall-mounted subscriber router solution.
-
Convenient Wall Mounting Profile: Can be securely anchored to walls, server backboards, or structural equipment enclosures using an optional snap-in mounting bracket plate.
-
Local Visual Diagnostics: Equipped with a clean, low-draw diagnostic LED light ring on the front panel, providing immediate, real-time confirmation that stable power is being generated and dispatched to the downstream field device.
Network Link Speed Compliance Check: The POE-24-12W variant supports 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet wire links. If your topology demands full multi-gigabit throughput pathways for high-speed hardware—such as standard UniFi AC or Wi-Fi 6 wireless nodes—please ensure you procure the dedicated Gigabit model (POE-24-12W-G), which features an identical electrical profile but includes full 1000Base-T physical data routing blocks.
