Small black network adapter with two RJ45 ports and a DC barrel jack, plus a short Ethernet pigtail cable

Inscape Data Corporation

Inscape Data Corporation APC1024 Active to Passive 24V PoE Converter Adapter

SKU CH-ENHN-PGKR5

Converts an 802.3 active PoE port to passive 24V 12W output with dual RJ45 ports at 10/100/1000Mbps and a 24V DC barrel jack for IoT devices

  • Converts active 802.3af/at PoE to passive 24V 12W output
  • Two 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 ports for gigabit Ethernet connectivity
  • Built-in 2KV surge protection on power input port
  • Additional 24V DC barrel jack powers IoT devices directly
  • Fanless, silent operation with natural cooling design

Active-to-Passive PoE Conversion

The Inscape Data Corporation APC1024 converts an active 802.3af/at PoE port into a passive 24V 12W output. It suits installers who need to power 24V passive devices such as IP cameras or wireless access points from a standard PoE switch. The adapter delivers up to .5A at 24V through the Ethernet cable. A secondary 24V DC barrel jack is also provided for IoT equipment.

Speed and Power Limits

Two RJ45 ports operate at 10/100/1000Mbps, so the link tops out at Gigabit Ethernet rates. The PoE output is fixed at 12W and 24V, meaning devices that draw more current or require a higher voltage cannot be powered. Power is carried on pins 4,5 (+) and 7,8 (-) only. Built-in surge protection is rated to 2KV for the input port.

Installation Notes

The unit ships with a 7-inch Ethernet pigtail cable for a direct connection to the switch port. No software configuration is required; the conversion is automatic once the active PoE source is detected. Passive cooling means silent operation but also requires adequate airflow in the enclosure. Verify that the powered device accepts 24V passive PoE on the stated pinout before connecting.

Questions about this item

Should I pick this converter if my switch delivers 802.3at power and the device needs passive 24V?

Yes — the APC1024 converts an active 802.3af/at PoE port into a passive 24V 12W output, matching devices that expect 24V on pins 4,5 (+) and 7,8 (-).

What Ethernet speed will I actually get through the two RJ45 ports?

Both ports run at 10/100/1000 Mbps, so a Gigabit link passes through unchanged while the converter injects 24V 0.5A power.

Does the barrel jack share the same 24V 12W budget as the PoE output?

The additional 24V DC barrel jack provides a second 24V output for IoT gear, drawing from the same 12W 0.5A supply.
