MikroTik Gigabit PoE adapter RBGPOE
The MikroTik Gigabit PoE adapter (RBGPOE) injects power into Gigabit Ethernet lines to remotely power any PoE-compatible RouterBOARD device. Supporting 18–57 V input and utilizing pins 4,5 (positive) and 7,8 (return), it reduces the number of power and data cables running to towers.Overview
The Gigabit PoE adapter is a simple yet essential component for remote router deployments on towers and masts. By combining power and data over a single Gigabit Ethernet cable, it eliminates the need for separate power cabling, reducing installation cost and complexity while maintaining full-speed connectivity.
Key Features
- Combines DC power and Gigabit Ethernet over a single cable for simplified deployment
- Supports 18–57 V input for compatibility with diverse power sources and PoE standards
- Uses pins 4,5 for positive voltage and pins 7,8 for return (mode B configuration)
- Reduces number of cables and connectors on towers and poles
- Works with any PoE-capable RouterBOARD device and compatible equipment
- Passive design with no active circuitry ensures reliability and simplicity
Specifications
- Type: Gigabit Passive PoE Injector
- Input Voltage: 18–57 V DC
- Ethernet Speed: Gigabit (1 Gbps)
- Pin Configuration: Pins 4,5 (positive), Pins 7,8 (return)
- Compatibility: All MikroTik RouterBOARD devices supporting passive PoE

FAQ
Is the RBGPOE injector compatible with active PoE standards (802.3af/at)?
No, the RBGPOE is a passive injector for 18–57 V input. For 802.3af/at compatibility, use a dedicated active PoE injector designed for that standard.
What gauge Ethernet cable should I use with the RBGPOE?
Use standard Cat5e or Cat6 cable; thicker gauges reduce voltage drop on longer runs. For runs exceeding 100m, consider thicker gauge or powered injection points along the cable.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a PoE injector simplify remote device powering?
The RBGPOE injects power into Gigabit Ethernet cables, allowing remote devices like wireless access points and IP cameras to operate without separate electrical circuits; ideal for tower and rooftop installations.
What voltage and power limits does the RBGPOE support?
The adapter supports 18-57 V input, enabling compatibility with multiple power sources and battery backup systems; confirm your device is PoE-compatible before connecting.
Does the RBGPOE work with standard PoE-compatible RouterBOARDs?
Yes; the injector is designed specifically to power PoE-compatible RouterBOARD devices, reducing cable complexity on towers and remote installations.
What do pins 4,5 (positive) and 7,8 (return) mean?
These are the Ethernet cable pairs used to inject power without disrupting data transmission; passive PoE bypasses unused data pairs to deliver power alongside normal network signals.
Can multiple RBGPOE units cascade or parallel for higher power?
Multiple injectors can power different devices on the same cable run if sized appropriately; however, confirm voltage and current limits to avoid exceeding Ethernet cable ratings.
How much cable length can the RBGPOE support?
Standard Gigabit Ethernet cable (Cat5e or higher) supports PoE power transmission up to 100 meters; verify cable gauge and quality with Procure.ae for longer runs or high-power devices.
What is the lead time for PoE adapters in the UAE?
Passive PoE injectors typically ship quickly; contact Procure.ae for current availability and delivery timelines to your location.
Does Procure.ae assist with PoE cable and installation planning?
Yes, Procure.ae can help design PoE cabling for towers and remote installations to ensure safe power delivery. Reach out to discuss your powering requirements.
What voltage and connector specifications does this injector provide?
The RBGPOE supports 18-57 V input and uses passive PoE on pins 4,5 (positive) and 7,8 (return), compatible with standard RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet connections.
What power capacity does the RBGPOE deliver?
The adapter injects power into standard Gigabit Ethernet cables; contact Procure.ae to confirm current-handling specifications for your specific remote device power requirements.
