Raspberry Pi PoE+ Injector Enhances Industrial Deployments
23. January 2026 | Planegg
For OEMs and industrial users, network devices without integrated PoE often require additional cabling and power infrastructure. The new Raspberry Pi PoE+ Injector now enables compliant power delivery across standard Ethernet networks, supporting both IEEE 802.3af (PoE) and 802.3at (PoE+).
This simplifies field installations, supports documentation for audits, and helps extend existing systems without replacing switches or power setups.
About the Raspberry Pi PoE+ Injector:
- Supports IEEE 802.3af (13 W) and 802.3at (25 W) standards – ensuring interoperability in industrial networks.
- Developed with Microchip – ensuring reliable supply and standards compliance.
- Operates with 100–240 V mains input – globally deployable.
- Compatible with all Raspberry Pi boards since 2018 – ideal for series production and retrofits.
- Functions as a midspan injector – adds power to non-PoE networks without hardware changes.
Benefits and Competitive Advantage for OEMs and Customers
The injector enables single-cable power and data delivery, reducing installation errors and simplifying conformity documentation. For OEMs, this supports reliable scaling, faster audits, and reduced system complexity in production and field operation.
