installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
¾Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
¾Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
¾Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
¾Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician
for help.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Overview of the Production
Thank you for choosing the TL-POE200 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 5/9/12-volt power input.
PoE (Power over Ethernet) technology allows the existing
Ethernet infrastructure to transmit electrical power, along with
data, to remote IP endpoints over the Ethernet cables, which
can greatly save the cost of the external power cables. Your
network can benefit from PoE technology for it will ensure the
normal working status of your network while keeping the existing
Ethernet infrastructure secure.

1.2 Features
¾Complies with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u standards
¾Transmits electrical power along with data in one single
cable
¾Supports optional 5V DC , 9V DC or 12V DC power supply
¾Supports Plug-and-Play for the devices without any
configuration
¾Elegant appearance with space-saving miniature size
Chapter 2 Identifying External Components
2.1 PoE Injector
POWER+DATA OUT: Connect to the PD or PoE Receiver
Adapter with a CAT5 UTP cable.

3
2.2 PoE Splitter
LAN IN: Connect to a
network device (such as
a Switch or Router) with
CAT5 UTP cable.
DC 48V: Connect to the
provided power adapter
which can supply steady
power of 48V DC.
PWR: Power LED, a steady green
light indicates that the power
adapter is working properly.
Power-mode switch:
You can choose the DC
output of 12V, 9V or 5V
by turning the switch to
the left or right.
POWER+DATA IN:
Connect to the PSE
or PoE Injector with
a CAT5 UTP cable.

)Note:
TL-POE200 Power over Ethernet Kit is not compliant with IEEE
802.3af standard. The TL-POE200A (PoE Injector) and
TL-POE200B (PoE Splitter) can only be operated together.
Pairing the devices with any other PoE adapter is dangerous.
Chapter 3 Connecting the Power over Ethernet
Adapter Kit
This chapter gives instructions on how to connect the Power
over Ethernet Adapter Kit. Once connected, the Kit will
transmit data and power over the Ethernet network cable to your
remotely located network device.
To connect the Power over Ethernet Adapter Kit, please take the
following steps.
LAN OUT: Connect to
the Ethernet device
with CAT5 UTP cable
to transmit data.
DC OUT: Connect to the
power port of the Ethernet
device with the provided
power cable to supply the
power of 5V, 9V or 12V DC.
PWR: Power LED, a steady green light indicates
that the PoE Injector can supply power.

Step 1: Insert one end of a Cat 5 Ethernet RJ45 Cable into the
LAN IN port of the PoE Injector, and connect the other
end of the cable to you network Switch or PC.
)Note:
Do not mistake the LAN IN port with the POWER+DATA OUT
port. Plugging the Ethernet cable into the wrong Ethernet port
may cause serious damage to your network devices.
Step 2: Plug one end of the Power Adapter into the DC 48V
port of the PoE Injector and the other end into your
electrical outlet. The green PWR LED on the PoE
Injector should light up.
Step 3: Connect another Cat 5 Ethernet RJ45 Cable from the
PoE Injector’s POWER+DATA OUT port to the
POWER+DATA IN port of the Splitter.
Step 4: Insert one end of the DC Power Cable that is provided
into the DC OUT port of the Splitter, and the other end
into the corresponding DC port of the Network Device.
The PWR LED on the Splitter should light up.
Step 5: Connect the provided Cat 5 Ethernet RJ45 Cable from
the LAN OUT port of the Splitter to the RJ45 LAN port
of the Network Device.
)Note:
Please make sure that the output is correct, as a different
voltage may destroy the device.
At this point, your Network Device should have power and data,
and function normally as shown in the figure below.
