Overview
- The D-Link DWL-P50 is an IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE receiver designed to extend power delivery to non-PoE Ethernet devices using standard CAT5 cabling. It eliminates the need for separate power sources, allowing devices like wireless access points and IP cameras to be mounted in locations up to 100 metres from the nearest power outlet.
Simple setup requires no tools or configuration. The unit features a rear-mounted volt selector allowing you to choose between 5V or 12V output depending on your device requirements. Its compact form factor makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
The DWL-P50 integrates seamlessly with any PoE-compliant injector or midspan switch, providing a complete end-to-end power delivery solution for business networks. By consolidating power and data onto a single cable, it reduces cable clutter and simplifies physical installation while maintaining full network performance.
