Splitter Max

The Peplink Splitter Max takes power and data off a single PoE cable and splits them into a 12V DC output and a normal Ethernet connection. It's built for outdoor and vehicle installs where one cable has to power a router that has no PoE input.

When you need one

Use it when a router or device in an outdoor install can't take PoE directly. A common case is an ANT-MAX enclosure with an older router. The current MAX BR1 Pro 5G and BR1 Mini both accept 802.3at PoE, so they don't need it. It can also power other 12V devices that draw under 48 watts, including more than one Peplink device at once.

How it works

On the indoor end, power the cable with a PoE switch or injector. 802.3af, at, and bt sources all work, and a higher-class source gives you more power at the far end. At the router, the Splitter Max sends 12V DC out through a Micro-Fit to terminal block cable and passes data through on its second Ethernet port. Both Ethernet ports run at up to 2.5 Gbps, so a 2.5G WAN isn't slowed down.

It's isolated between the power and data lines, with surge and ESD protection on the PoE input. That helps protect the router from surges coming down a long outdoor cable run.
