1 About Your PoE-80
The PoE-80 Eight-port Power over Ethernet Hub is an eight-port power injector, designed for use
with 10/100 BaseT Ethernet networks. The PoE-80 injects DC power through the unused twisted-
wires (pairs 4/5 and 7/8) of a standard 8-pin CAT 5 cable. This allows increased flexibility in the
locating of power over Ethernet (PoE) enabled devices by eliminating the need for a nearby power
source.
