Green LED(data) never light in any circumstances,two reasons are below, 1.This splitter allows data to input and output through its RJ45 port, but no indicator on this splitter indicates the status of the data transfer. Only one power indicator shows the working status of the POE. 2.due to the cost problem,the network interface component is from the universal components which own two LEDs on the market. Review: DSLRKIT DC 5V 2.4A Active PoE Splitter (802.3af) for Hue Bridge - I recently picked up the DSLRKIT DC 5V 2.4A Active PoE Splitter (802.3af) to power my Philips Hue Bridge (Hue hub) via Power over Ethernet instead of using a separate power adapter. After a straightforward setup, it’s proven to be an incredibly handy addition to my smart home setup. Key Benefits Single-Cable Convenience By using this splitter, I can now run both data and power over a single Ethernet cable from my PoE switch to the Hue Bridge. This cuts down on clutter and frees up a wall outlet. Sufficient Power Output The splitter delivers a steady 5V at up to 2.4A, which comfortably meets the power requirements of the Hue Bridge (2A is typically recommended). I’ve experienced no dropouts, restarts, or connection issues since making the switch. 802.3af Compliant Since it’s 802.3af compliant, it works seamlessly with standard PoE switches. There’s no fuss with proprietary adapters—just plug it into a PoE-capable port, and the splitter handles the rest. Straightforward Installation Ethernet In: Connect the splitter to a PoE-enabled Ethernet port on your switch. Ethernet Out: Run a short Ethernet cable from the splitter to the Hue Bridge’s network port. Barrel Plug Out: The 5.5x2.1 mm barrel connector goes into the Hue Bridge’s power input. After plugging everything in, the Hue Bridge powered on immediately and maintained a solid network connection. Compact Design The splitter’s small form factor makes it easy to tuck away behind a cabinet or entertainment center. It doesn’t generate much heat, and there’s a small indicator LED that confirms it’s receiving power. Performance Stable Power: After several weeks of use, I haven’t experienced any flickering LEDs or dropped connections with my Hue lights. The Bridge stays powered 24/7 without a hitch. No Noticeable Latency: Moving power management off to the PoE splitter hasn’t added any lag or reduced responsiveness in the Hue app—everything remains snappy. Considerations PoE Switch or Injector Required: You’ll need an 802.3af-compliant PoE switch or injector. If you don’t already have PoE in your network setup, that’s an additional cost to factor in. Cable Management: While it does reduce a power brick in your setup, you’ll still have a small splitter and some short cables to deal with. Overall, though, it’s still more streamlined than using a separate AC adapter. Pros & Cons Pros Frees up a wall outlet by combining power and data into one cable. Delivers ample power (5V/2.4A) for the Philips Hue Bridge. Easy plug-and-play installation with a PoE switch. Compact and runs cool. Cons Requires 802.3af PoE source (additional hardware if not already present). You’ll still have a small box (the splitter) in your wiring path. Final Verdict The DSLRKIT DC 5V 2.4A Active PoE Splitter is a great solution if you want to power your Philips Hue Bridge via Power over Ethernet. It simplifies cable management, delivers reliable power, and reduces the need for an extra power adapter. If you already have a PoE-capable setup (or plan to add one), this splitter is a worthwhile upgrade to keep your smart home hub neatly integrated and always powered. Review: Perfect PoE Solution for SmartThings Hub V2 - This PoE adapter works flawlessly to power my Samsung SmartThings v2 Hub and lets me monitor power usage right in my UniFi dashboard—super convenient for keeping tabs on my smart home setup. Setup was truly plug-and-play, with zero issues, and it cleaned up my wiring by eliminating the need for a separate power brick. Solid build quality and reliable performance—I honestly wish I had done this sooner. Highly recommended! ## Features - 5.5x2.1mm DC Plug Active PoE Splitter，48V to 5V 2.4A (Max. 12watt) - 10/100Mbps Ethernet，Compliant with IEEE802.3af，With 2.5KV isolation - This POE Splitter is suitable for household IP camera with DC 5V power (as the kind in the photo of the instruction),it does not suit equipments with DC 12V power - Some managed intelligent Gigabit PoE switches need to set the LAN port of this connected splitter to Manual 100Mb/s mode in the management Settings of switches, otherwise the power supply may work normally but the network connection will not work, such as the following switch, HP 3500-48G-PoE yl Switch (J8693A) - Please note that Philips changed the size of the DC socket on the Bridge. If you have a v1 Bridge the DC socket is 5.5×2.1mm. If you have a v2 Bridge the DC socket is 5.5×2.5mm, this splitter is not compatible. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07ZH5V89T | | Best Sellers Rank | #127 in Computer Networking Switches | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (225) | | Date First Available | June 25, 2019 | | Item Weight | 1.76 ounces | | Item model number | 5V-5.5*2.1 | | Manufacturer | DSLRKIT | | Product Dimensions | 3.15 x 1.06 x 0.87 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DSLRKIT - **Color:** black - **Compatible Devices:** Internet Protocol Camera - **Data Link Protocol:** Ethernet, IEEE 802.3 - **Data Transfer Rate:** 100 Megabits Per Second - **Hardware Interface:** Ethernet - **Manufacturer:** DSLRKIT ## Images ![DC 5V 2.4A Active PoE Splitter Power Over Ethernet 802.3af 5.5x2.1mm - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61GocCaUb+L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is the rj45 output port an "poe passthrough port"? what is it power rating?** A: Poe goes in the female side, power and Ethernet come out the other two leads. **Q: What are the dimensions of the actual adapter - not the packaging?** A: The dimensions are 7/8" x 1-1/8" x 3-1/4".
