Primary Use Cases

1. Powering Ubiquiti Devices Specifically designed to power Ubiquiti products that require 24V passive PoE, such as:
   • NanoStation M series
   • airMAX devices (e.g., LiteBeam, NanoBeam)
   • airGateway
   • UniFi devices that support 24V passive PoE
2. Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) NetworksPerfect for powering a single PoE device in a home or small office setup without needing a full PoE switch.
3. Remote Device Deployment Ideal for installations where power outlets are not readily available near the device. The injector allows both power and data to be delivered over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying deployment.
4. Outdoor Wireless Access Points Frequently used to power outdoor wireless bridges and access points, especially in point-to-point or point-to-multipoint wireless setups.
5. Video Surveillance Systems Can be used to power compatible IP cameras in surveillance setups, particularly in remote or outdoor locations.
6. Network Expansion in Rural or Underserved Areas Useful in extending network infrastructure in areas lacking reliable power sources, such as rural broadband deployments.

Key Features Supporting These Use Cases

• Surge and ESD Protection Helps protect connected devices from electrostatic discharge and power surges.
• Remote Reset Capability Allows network administrators to reset connected devices remotely, reducing the need for physical access.
• Compact and Lightweight Design Easy to integrate into tight spaces or wall-mount setups.
• 2-Pair Powering: Uses pins 4, 5 (+) and 7, 8 (-) for power delivery
