TP-Link TL-POE170S 60W PoE++ Injector Adapter

Overview

The TL-POE170S is a single-port PoE injector designed to add 60W of power to network infrastructure where dedicated network switches with integrated PoE are unavailable or impractical. It carries both data and power across a single cable run up to 100 meters, eliminating the need for parallel AC runs to remote endpoints.

Key Specifications

Power Delivery: 60W output complies with IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.3af (PoE) standards — backward compatible with older endpoints requiring lower power budgets.

Port Configuration: One Gigabit PoE output port and one Gigabit non-PoE input port. Data and power travel the same Cat5e/Cat6 cable to the endpoint, simplifying cable infrastructure.

Form Factor: Steel case, pocket-sized design — fits easily into wall-mounted or rack-side deployment scenarios without bulk.

Installation Context

Deploy the TL-POE170S between your network source and a remote powered device—wireless access points, IP cameras, or other 802.3af/at/bt endpoints—where a single cable run is required and PoE power is not available upstream. The 100-meter cable distance accommodates building perimeter and exterior placement without signal loss.

When to Choose a Different Model

If you need to power multiple endpoints simultaneously, or require integrated switching and management features, consider a dedicated PoE-enabled network switch from the TP-Link catalog instead. For stationary indoor-only installations with lower power demands, a passive or standard 802.3af injector may suffice.
