Stable Power Supply for your Ubiquiti Network
The Ubiquiti POE-24-12W-G is more than just a Power Supply; it's the heart of many proven Ubiquiti installations. It ensures that your Access Points, IP Cameras, or airMAX Antennas are powered exactly where you need them – even if there's no power outlet nearby. This device belongs to the category of PoE Injectors / Power Supplies and is an indispensable Ubiquiti Accessory for anyone who relies on clean and efficient Cabling in their Network.
Gigabit Speed without Compromises
Why should you compromise on speed when it comes to Power Supply? This injector is equipped with shielded Gigabit RJ45 ports. This means that the full bandwidth of your router or switch is forwarded to your end device without loss. Stream, work, and play without artificial throttling – the POE-24-12W-G ensures your data flows unhindered.
Integrated Device Protection and Smart Features
Expensive Network hardware deserves the best protection. Ubiquiti has equipped this injector with robust protection mechanisms against overvoltage and electrostatic discharge (ESD). This significantly increases the lifespan of your devices. A particularly clever feature is the Remote Reset button. If a device freezes in a hard-to-reach location, you no longer have to climb a ladder. A simple press of the button on the injector is enough to restart the device – an invaluable advantage for any administrator.
The Crucial Note: Passive 24V PoE
It's important to understand that this injector uses 24V Passive PoE. This is a Ubiquiti-specific standard. It is perfect for many older UniFi Access Points and most airMAX devices, but it is not compatible with devices that require the IEEE 802.3af/at standard (usually 48V). Before purchasing, be sure to check the compatibility of your end device to avoid damage. If in doubt, consult the datasheet or ask us a quick question.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the Ubiquiti POE-24-12W-G used for?
It is used to power compatible Ubiquiti devices such as older UniFi Access Points, airMAX Antennas, or some IP Cameras via a single Ethernet Cable, providing both data (up to 1 Gbit/s) and 24V power to your Network.
Is the POE-24-12W-G compatible with all PoE devices?
No, absolutely not. It is exclusively designed for devices that explicitly require 24V Passive PoE. Connecting it to devices that require 48V or the IEEE 802.3af/at standard can destroy them.
What is the difference between the "LAN" and "PoE" ports on the injector?
The "LAN" port connects to the Network Switch or Router and only receives data. The "PoE" port outputs both data and 24V power to the end device being powered (e.g., a WiFi Access Point).
Can I operate a 100 Mbps device with this Gigabit injector?
Yes, that is easily possible. The injector is backward compatible. The device will then operate at 100 Mbps, while the injector itself remains Gigabit-capable.
Why should I use this PoE Injector instead of a PoE Switch?
A PoE Injector is a cost-effective solution for powering a single device. If you only have one or two devices that require 24V Passive PoE, an injector is more economical than a full Ethernet Switch that supports this specific standard.
What does the "Remote Reset" button mean?
This button on the injector allows you to remotely restart the connected end device. This is particularly useful if the device is mounted in a hard-to-reach location, such as a mast or a high ceiling, and is no longer responding.
