Direct Device-Mount Active to Passive PoE Converter | 802.3af/at to 24V Gigabit Plug-and-Play Adapter
Direct Attachment to Terminal Devices—Eliminating Extra Patch Cords for Space-Saving 24V Step-Down
The PSE202-ACP24 Direct Device-Mount Active to 24V Passive PoE Converter delivers an innovative, direct-plug solution for integrating 24V passive PoE hardware—such as Ubiquiti airMAX, MikroTik RouterBOARDs, outdoor CPEs, and access control terminals—into standard IEEE 802.3af/at (48V–56V) active network switch infrastructures. Featuring a standard RJ45 female input port and an integrated male RJ45 output plug, this compact converter connects directly into the Ethernet interface of the end device. By eliminating the need for an additional patch cord between the converter and terminal device, the PSE202-ACP24 reduces field connection points, lowers material inventory costs, and simplifies cabinet wiring. Built in a compact ABS molded housing, it receives standard 48V active PoE transmission over network cables up to 100 meters, stepping down to regulated 24V DC / 1A passive output locally at full Gigabit wire speed.
Target Application Scenarios
Designed specifically for edge network devices requiring 24V passive power input in commercial and industrial projects:
Outdoor Wireless CPEs & PtP Bridges
Directly powers 24V outdoor wireless CPEs, point-to-point bridges, and sector APs (such as Ubiquiti airMAX, Bullet, UniFi APs, and MikroTik RouterBOARDs) directly from standard 48V PoE switches without extra patch cables or local AC outlets.
Access Control & Door Intercom Systems
Ideal for powering 24V RFID door controllers, biometric access panels, and SIP video intercom terminals installed in shallow gang boxes, plugging directly into the device's rear network port to save space.
Industrial IP Surveillance & IoT Sensors
Provides steady 24V PoE power to specialized industrial IP cameras, PTZ controllers, and IoT sensor gateways mounted inside tight outdoor junction boxes or pole-mount enclosures.
Key Features & Engineering Advantages
Comprehensive technical capabilities designed for seamless power conversion and high-reliability edge deployment.
Direct Device-Mount Design (Patch-Cord Free)
Features a standard RJ45 female input port and an integrated male RJ45 output connector. Plugs directly into the network port of terminal CPEs or access control devices, completely eliminating the need for an extra intermediate patch cable and reducing cable clutter in tight enclosures.
IEEE 802.3af/at Active Detection to 24V Regulated Output
Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3af/at standards, handshake-negotiating with active 48V–56V PoE switches before stepping power down to a stable, regulated 24V DC (up to 1A / 24W) passive PoE output, ensuring safe and reliable power delivery.
10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Line-Rate Throughput
Supports full 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation on all 8 wire pairs. Delivers uninterrupted Gigabit bandwidth without latency or packet drop, ideal for high-speed wireless backhauls and high-definition video surveillance streams.
Extended 100-Meter Cabling Reach
Leverages 48V high-voltage power transmission over standard Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernet cables up to 100 meters (328 ft) to eliminate line loss and voltage drops, converting locally at the device terminal for max deployment flexibility.
Integrated Electrical Circuit Protection
Equipped with short-circuit, over-current, and over-voltage protection mechanisms. Prevents transient power surges or wiring faults on the network line from damaging expensive connected terminal hardware.
Compact Plastic Enclosure & Plug-and-Play
Encased in a lightweight, compact ABS molded housing designed to fit into narrow outdoor junction boxes or pole-mount AP backboxes. Pure hardware conversion requiring zero software setup or configuration.
Active PoE to 24V Passive PoE Converter Connectivity Solutions
Bridge standard 48V–56V active PoE networks with 24V passive outdoor CPEs and wireless bridges seamlessly using the PSE200-ACP24 step-down converter.

Typical Application Scenarios
- 1. Standard Active Switch to 24V Wireless Bridge Conversion Safely connect 24V passive wireless CPEs or point-to-point (PTP) bridges to an enterprise IEEE 802.3af/at active PoE switch. The PSE200-ACP24 negotiates power safely via active 802.3af/at handshake and steps down the voltage to a regulated 24V output (Mode B: Pins 4,5+ / 7,8-), protecting legacy 24V wireless gear from high-voltage damage while maintaining full Gigabit backhaul.
- 2. Protected Outdoor Cabinet & Enclosure Deployment Because the non-waterproof PoE input port cannot be exposed directly to open rainfall, the unit is intended for placement inside outdoor waterproof junction boxes, equipment cabinets, or sheltered eaves. Its output side features a dedicated waterproof connector to ensure a sealed connection for the downstream cable extending out to remote wireless APs.
- 3. Extended Operating Temperature Resistance (-30°C to +75°C) Powered entirely via the incoming Ethernet bus line with zero external AC power required, the converter withstands harsh environmental temperatures ranging from -30°C up to +75°C inside outdoor enclosures, making it ideal for year-round operation across unheated industrial sites and extreme weather conditions.
