ANVISION 4-Pack 5V Gigabit PoE Splitter - Power Non-PoE Devices Easily

In this review the ANVISION 4-Pack 5V Gigabit PoE Splitter is examined as a simple way to power non-PoE devices at remote locations. The bottom line: installers or hobbyists who need a compact, plug-and-play solution to convert IEEE 802.3af PoE (44-56V) into a 5V DC supply will appreciate this kit. It splits a PoE line into a separate 5V 2.4A power output and a gigabit ethernet data connection, making it an especially practical choice for powering IP cameras and small networked devices where there is no nearby power outlet.

Key Features

• 5V DC Output: Provides up to 5V 2.4A (12W max) which is enough to run many IP cameras and single-board computers that require a 5V input.
• Gigabit Data: Supports 10/100/1000Mbps ethernet so devices retain full gigabit connectivity while receiving power separately.
• IEEE 802.3af Input: Accepts 44-56V PoE from switches or injectors, allowing long cable runs without local power.
• Dual Tip Connectors: Includes both 3.5mm x 1.35mm and 5.5mm x 2.1mm plug tips to match common device jacks without adapters.
• Plug and Play: No configuration is required; simply connect the PoE source and the device to start receiving data and 5V power.
• Four-Pack Value: The package contains four splitters, which is convenient for multi-camera or multi-device installations and reduces per-unit cost.

Who It's For

The ANVISION PoE splitter is aimed at integrators, DIY installers, and makers who need to power 5V devices like IP cameras, single-board computers, or IoT hubs from an existing PoE network. It is especially useful where running a separate power cable or installing an outlet is impractical and where maintaining a gigabit network link matters.

Those who should look elsewhere include users who need higher wattage than 12W, devices that require voltages other than 5V, or environments that demand extended operating temperatures below -10C or above 45C, since the splitters are specified for -10 to 45C operation.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Reliable conversion from PoE to a stable 5V DC output suitable for many cameras and accessories.
• Maintains gigabit ethernet performance so data throughput is not compromised.
• Includes two common DC jack tip sizes and four splitters in the package for multi-device setups.
• Backed by a two year warranty and unlimited technical support for installation issues.

Cons

• Maximum 12W output limits use with higher-power devices or peripherals that draw more than 2.4A at 5V.
• Operating temperature range is modest and may not suit extreme outdoor installs without weatherproofing.

Our Verdict

The ANVISION 4-Pack 5V Gigabit PoE Splitter is a practical, cost-effective solution for powering multiple 5V networked devices from a PoE infrastructure. Its combination of gigabit data support, common tip connectors, and a four-unit pack makes it good value for installers who need tidy, plug-and-play conversion, provided the 12W per-port limit fits the intended devices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this splitter work with a gigabit PoE switch?
Yes, it supports 10/100/1000Mbps and is compatible with IEEE 802.3af PoE switches and injectors that supply 44-56V.

What devices can I power with the 5V output?
It is suited for non-PoE devices that require a 5V DC input and draw up to 2.4A, such as many IP cameras and small single-board computers.
