The official Power over Ethernet (PoE) add-on board for the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ or Raspberry Pi 4! Use this HAT to power a Raspberry Pi via an Ethernet cable, removing the need for a separate power supply, an ideal solution for embedded and IoT projects. For Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ and onwards, an 802.3af compliant POE injector, switch, or router device is required (not included).

 

  • Power over Ethernet 802.3af compliant
  • Power over Ethernet Boot (PXE Boot)
  • Class 2 device
  • Fully isolate Switched-Mode Power Supply (SMPS)
  • 36-56V Input Voltage
  • 5V Output Voltage
  • Supplies up to 2.5A
  • Fan Control
  • Plug-and-play compatibility with Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ or Raspberry Pi 4

 

Best of all, it fits within the official Raspberry Pi Case!

    It does seem that this has been designed for the single purpose of powering the RPi over Ethernet. They have provided access to the camera and display connectors, which is nice. HOWEVER the GPIO has been…

    Hey Enrico, This will provide the Pi with its 5V 2.5A needed as if it were plugged into the official power supply. More info about upcoming roadtests and more information on the PoE board will be released…

    Hi Everybody. I'm sorry but it will not use the 40pin GPIO connector. Power is taken directly on the RJ45 connector, and on the Pi3 B+, there's a new 4pin connector (close to the USB connectors) called…

    So... ETA?

     

    Somewhere, I'd seen that it was targeted to start shipping from Newark / Farnell about a week ago.  Waiting with baited breath...

    I spoke with someone at Newark Canada about a month ago-they wouldn't even estimate on the wait time....

    Well, mine arrived a couple days ago from Newark/Element14.  Apparently about a month after folks who ordered them elsewhere, which was disappointing since I've had them back-ordered for about 6 months.

     

    Now, it seems I was lucky to even get them, as a design defect has been found and nobody's selling them now; a recall may be pending.  Apparently the power being output is very noisy, which is bad in itself, and one of the symptoms is that the USB/Ethernet chip resets frequently and it can't power a USB device over 200mA.

    I ordered two in June, they too arrived earlier this week.  I put one through the ringer with an old USB HDD that required two USB ports and it seemed okay.

     

    both that one and the other have been up and running for days without any of the horror stories-I just haven’t tried them yet with any other USB devices.
