About this item

The Geekworm Raspberry Pi 5 PoE Hat (model Pi5-POE-PD-A) is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) expansion board designed to provide both power and network connectivity to the Raspberry Pi 5 through a single Ethernet cable. This HAT supports the IEEE 802.3af/at network standards, making it compatible with PoE routers or switches that also support these standards. It utilizes a USB-C connector for power delivery, offering higher current suitable for the Raspberry Pi 5, and includes a Power Delivery (PD) active protocol to prevent the 5A startup warning. With an input voltage range of 37V to 57V and a maximum output of 5V at 4.5A, it ensures stable and efficient power supply. The design of the Pi5-POE-PD-A HAT does not occupy the Raspberry Pi's 40-pin GPIO header, preserving all GPIO ports for other uses. It also supports the official Raspberry Pi Active Cooler and other third-party cooling solutions. This PoE HAT is ideal for applications requiring both power and network connectivity, such as remote deployments, IoT projects, and networked devices, providing a reliable and efficient solution for powering the Raspberry Pi 5
