Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Linksys 12 Volt Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit, comprised of the Injector and Splitter. The Injector sends power and data over the Ethernet cable to the Splitter. Then the Splitter separates the data and power back into two cables and delivers them to the remotely located access point or other network device that requires a 12-volt power input. The Injector can also be used by itself with any Power Over Ethernet (POE)-enabled network device that accepts 48 volts directly on a POE port.

NOTE: If your Linksys product uses a 5-volt power input, then you should use the 5‑volt kit, model number: WAPPOE.
