Description
Power Your Network Devices Without the Complexity
The TP-Link TL-POE170S is a single-port PoE++ injector designed for professional installers and IT administrators who need a reliable, high-wattage power solution for demanding network devices. Delivering up to 60W over a single Ethernet cable, it eliminates the need for separate power runs — reducing installation time and infrastructure costs on commercial and residential projects alike.
Key Features
-
60W PoE++ Output — Supports power-hungry devices such as PTZ cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones
-
IEEE 802.3af/at/bt Compliant — Backwards compatible across all three PoE standards for maximum device compatibility
-
Dual Gigabit Ports — 10/100/1000Mbps data-in and power+data-out ports ensure full-speed network throughput
-
Auto-Sensing Power Delivery — Automatically detects and supplies only the power the connected device requires
-
Integrated Power Supply — No external power brick required; connects directly to a standard AC outlet (100–240V)
-
Plug & Play — Zero configuration needed; simply connect and power on
-
Flexible Mounting — Supports both wall-mount and desktop installation to suit any environment
-
Durable Metal Casing — Built for long-term reliability in professional installation environments
Typical Use Cases
- Powering PTZ CCTV cameras and IP cameras in locations without nearby power outlets
- Supplying high-wattage wireless access points in commercial Wi-Fi deployments
- Connecting VoIP phones and intercoms via a single Ethernet run
- Adding PoE capability to non-PoE switches in existing network infrastructure
- Temporary or permanent single-device PoE installations in retail, hospitality, and office environments

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt?
These are IEEE PoE standards with increasing power budgets. 802.3af (PoE) delivers up to 15.4W, 802.3at (PoE+) up to 30W, and 802.3bt (PoE++) up to 60W or 100W depending on the type. The TL-POE170S supports all three, making it compatible with virtually any PoE-enabled device.
Will this work with my existing non-PoE switch?
Yes. The TL-POE170S sits between your existing switch and the powered device. It draws data from the switch via the Data-In port and injects power onto the cable through the Power+Data-Out port — no switch upgrade required.
Can I use this to power a PTZ camera?
Yes, provided your PTZ camera is PoE-compatible and requires 60W or less. The auto-sensing feature ensures only the required wattage is delivered, protecting your equipment.
Does it require any software configuration?
No. The TL-POE170S is fully Plug & Play. Connect the cables, plug into the AC outlet, and it operates immediately with no software or web interface required.
What cable length is supported?
Standard Ethernet cable runs up to 100 metres (Cat5e or Cat6 recommended for Gigabit speeds and reliable PoE delivery).
