Introduction
The Revotech Gigabit PoE Splitter (Model PS5712TG-25) is designed to convert 48V Power over Ethernet (PoE) input into a 12V 2A DC output, along with a separate Gigabit Ethernet data connection. This device allows non-PoE compatible devices, such as security IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points, to receive both power and data over a single Ethernet cable from a PoE switch or injector.
Key Features
- PoE 48V to DC 12V/2A: Converts 48V PoE input to a 12V/2A DC output via a 5.5x2.5mm DC connector.
- Max 24W DC Output: Automatically detects and provides appropriate power output, up to 24W (12V/2A).
- Gigabit Speed: Supports fast Gigabit Ethernet transmission (10/100/1000Mbps).
- Plug and Play: Simple connection without complex configuration.
- Multiple Protection: Includes isolation circuit protection, short circuit protection, and overvoltage protection for equipment safety.

Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly connect your Revotech Gigabit PoE Splitter:
- Connect PoE Source: Plug an Ethernet cable from your PoE switch or PoE injector into the RJ45 input port of the Revotech Gigabit PoE Splitter. This cable will carry both power and data.
- Connect Data Output: Connect the RJ45 output cable from the splitter to the Ethernet input port of your non-PoE device (e.g., IP camera, VoIP phone, AP).
- Connect Power Output: Connect the DC 5.5x2.5mm power output cable from the splitter to the DC power input port of your non-PoE device. Ensure the device requires 12V DC power with a 5.5x2.5mm barrel connector.
- Verify Connection: Once connected, your non-PoE device should power on and establish a network connection.

Operating Instructions
The Revotech Gigabit PoE Splitter is designed for simple, plug-and-play operation. Once correctly connected as described in the Setup Instructions, the device will automatically begin to function.
- Automatic Power Detection: The splitter automatically detects the incoming PoE power and converts it to the required 12V DC output for your connected device.
- Gigabit Data Transmission: The Ethernet output port provides full Gigabit (10/100/1000Mbps) data speeds, ensuring high-performance network connectivity for your device.
Gigabit Performance

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Revotech Gigabit PoE Splitter, consider the following maintenance guidelines:
- Keep Clean: Regularly wipe the exterior of the device with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using liquid cleaners.
- Environmental Conditions: Operate the splitter within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid exposing it to extreme heat, cold, or moisture.
- Cable Management: Ensure all connected cables are not excessively bent or strained, which can lead to damage over time.
- Ventilation: While the device is compact, ensure it is not covered or placed in an enclosed space that could hinder airflow.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Revotech Gigabit PoE Splitter, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
Common Issues and Solutions
- No Power to Device / Unstable Voltage:
If the PoE splitter is not connected to a terminal device (i.e., there is no load), it may trigger light load protection, causing the voltage to appear unstable during testing. The voltage will stabilize once a device requiring at least 10mA (0.01A) is connected. Ensure your non-PoE device is properly connected and drawing power.
- No Network Connection:
Verify that the Ethernet cables are securely connected to both the PoE source and your non-PoE device. Check the status indicator lights on your PoE switch and the splitter (if available) to confirm an active connection. Ensure your PoE source is active and providing power.
- Device Not Powering On (Even with Load):
Confirm that your non-PoE device requires 12V 2A DC power and uses a 5.5x2.5mm DC barrel connector. Incorrect voltage or connector size will prevent proper operation. Also, ensure the PoE source is providing sufficient power (IEEE 802.3af/at standard).
- Slow Network Speed:
Ensure all network components (PoE switch, cables, and the connected device) support Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) to achieve maximum speeds. Check cable quality; damaged or low-quality cables can degrade performance.
