Single-cable PoE to USB-C adapter
The SMUGDESK active PoE splitter converts 48V IEEE 802.3af power over Ethernet into a regulated 5V USB-C supply while passing network data through a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable. It targets installers and hobbyists deploying Raspberry Pi 4 boards, Google WiFi points, IP cameras or other 5V USB-C IoT gear in locations without convenient mains sockets. Plug-and-play operation removes the need for separate power bricks and reduces cable count on long runs.
5V regulated output within 802.3af budget
The splitter delivers steady 5V DC from the 48V PoE input, staying inside the standard 802.3af power envelope so it works with compliant switches and injectors without extra negotiation. It comfortably handles typical single-board computers, access points and security cameras that draw within that budget. Devices requiring higher wattage or voltages other than 5V will exceed the available headroom and need a different power solution.
Silent passive cooling with built-in protection
No fan is present; the unit relies on passive dissipation during normal operation, so it adds no acoustic noise to quiet environments. Comprehensive overvoltage, overcurrent and short-circuit circuits protect both the splitter and the attached device from unstable PoE sources. Power draw matches the connected load plus minimal conversion overhead, keeping heat low in typical indoor deployments.

Questions about this item
Will the 48 V PoE input from my existing switch power a Raspberry Pi 4 through this splitter?
Yes, the splitter converts 48 V PoE to regulated 5 V USB-C output, so a Raspberry Pi 4 receives both power and data over one Ethernet cable.
How can I confirm the 5 V USB-C output is stable after connecting my IP camera?
The camera should boot reliably and maintain continuous network streaming without resets, indicating the built-in overvoltage, overcurrent and short-circuit protection is functioning.
Does the package include an Ethernet cable or PoE injector, or must I supply them?
Only the PoE splitter unit is included; you need a Cat5e or Cat6 cable and an IEEE 802.3af PoE switch or injector to deliver power and data.
