Product Information
Full details
The TRENDnet TPE-113GI is a Gigabit Power over Ethernet (PoE) Injector designed for users needing to add PoE capabilities to non-PoE network switches. Its key benefit is enabling remote installation of PoE devices like IP cameras and access points without requiring a new PoE switch, saving on equipment and installation costs. A caveat to consider is its reliance on a separate power adapter and its specific PoE voltage output.

FAQs
What is the maximum distance I can run an Ethernet cable with the TPE-113GI?
You can run an Ethernet cable for up to 100 meters (328 feet) from the TPE-113GI to your PoE device.
Is the TPE-113GI compatible with PoE+ (802.3at) devices?
No, the TPE-113GI is designed for IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet devices, providing 48V. It is not compatible with the higher power requirements of PoE+ (802.3at).
Do I need a special type of Ethernet cable?
For Gigabit speeds, it is recommended to use Cat5e or higher category Ethernet cables. Ensure the cables are in good condition.
What are the dimensions of the TPE-113GI?
The dimensions are 70 x 45 x 25 mm (2.76 x 1.77 x 0.98 inches).
Does this injector come with an AC adapter?
Yes, the TRENDnet TPE-113GI includes an AC power adapter for operation.
Can I use this with any brand of PoE device?
As long as the PoE device is compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard and requires 48V of power, it should be compatible.
Troubleshooting
PoE device is not powering on or connecting.
Verify that the TPE-113GI is powered on (check Power LED). Ensure the PoE device is IEEE 802.3af compliant and compatible with 48V. Check that the Ethernet cables are securely connected to the correct ports ('PoE' to switch, 'Device' to PoE device) and that the cable run is within 100 meters.
Slow network speeds or intermittent connectivity.
Ensure the connected switch and PoE device support Gigabit speeds. Check the Ethernet cables for damage and verify they are Cat5e or higher. Reduce the cable length if possible. Check for network congestion on the switch.
The Power LED is off.
Confirm the AC adapter is properly connected to both the TPE-113GI and a working power outlet. Try a different power outlet. If the issue persists, the AC adapter or the injector itself may be faulty.
