Network Splitter Edimax GP-101ST Power over Ethernet PoE Black

The Edimax GP-101ST Gigabit PoE Splitter separates power and data from a PoE-enabled Ethernet cable to supply non-PoE devices such as network cameras and wireless access points. It accepts PoE input up to Gigabit speeds and provides selectable DC outputs of 12V, 9V or 5V over standard Ethernet cabling up to 100 meters (328 feet). The compact black unit requires no software or tools for installation and includes a DC cable for connecting the powered device.

Advantages

The GP-101ST supports IEEE 802.3at/af and compatible proprietary PoE, enabling interoperability with PoE switches and injectors. It offers short-circuit protection and a built-in slide switch to choose 5V, 9V or 12V output. By delivering both data and power over a single cable, the splitter reduces the need for local power outlets and additional electrical wiring, simplifying deployments in ceiling- or wall-mounted installations.

Suitable for

• Network cameras that lack PoE input
• Wireless access points and small networking devices
• Remote or ceiling/wall-mounted installations up to 100 m from a PoE source

How to use

Connect the GP-101ST input RJ-45 port to a PoE injector or PoE switch using a standard Ethernet cable. Set the slide switch to the required DC output (5V, 9V or 12V). Connect the included DC cable from the splitter’s DC output to the powered device. Ensure cable length does not exceed 100 meters between the PoE source and splitter. No software configuration is required.

Recommendations

Check the power requirements of the target device before selecting the output voltage and ensure the device’s current draw does not exceed the splitter’s maximum output. Use compliant PoE injectors or switches and standard Cat5e/Cat6 cables for reliable Gigabit data and power delivery.
