I bought this to install an IP camera on a radio tower. Since I didn't want to run a power cable & an ethernet cable up the tower, PoE seemed like the right way to go. Out of the box, this PoE adapter worked flawlessly. SUPER easy to setup (no software)... just plug and play. I used a very inexpensive camera that had a 5VDC power requirement, so it went together in no time. I love the fact that with the terminal and dongle, you can power a non-PoE compliant device! Very cool.
One thing to keep in mind is that your device must accept either 12V or 5VDC. You can't power many Pan-Tilt-Zoom cameras or other high-current devices with it. This DLINK adapter only provides 12VDC or 5VDC through the ethernet cable, so if your device requires something else, you'll need to keep looking. But in my case, this thing worked without a hitch.
So far, I can't find a thing wrong with this, especially for the $$!Get more detail about D-Link DWL-P200 Power Over Ethernet Adapter.
