EnGenius EPA5006GAT

Overview

The EnGenius EPA5006GAT is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter designed to deliver both network data and up to 30 watts of power through a single Gigabit Ethernet cable. It supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards, enabling reliable power delivery and full Gigabit throughput over distances up to 328 feet (100 meters). This makes it an excellent solution for powering devices like access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones in locations where electrical outlets are not readily available.

Key features

• Combines data and power transmission over one Ethernet cable to simplify installation and reduce cable clutter.
• Supports higher power output up to 30 watts, suitable for devices requiring more than basic PoE power.
• Maintains full Gigabit Ethernet speeds to ensure smooth video streaming and clear voice communication even on busy networks.
• Built-in surge, short-circuit, and disconnect protection safeguards connected equipment from power irregularities and reduces downtime.
• Compact design allows for flexible mounting options on walls or ceilings, fitting easily into wiring closets or tight spaces.

Connectivity and compatibility

This adapter works seamlessly with a wide range of PoE-enabled devices, including wireless access points, IP surveillance cameras, and VoIP phones. Its compliance with both IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards ensures compatibility with most modern network equipment that requires PoE power delivery. The single Gigabit Ethernet port supports high-speed data transfer, making it suitable for environments where network performance is critical.

Installation and setup

Installation is straightforward, requiring only a single Ethernet cable to deliver both power and data. The compact form factor allows the adapter to be mounted discreetly on walls or ceilings, keeping wiring neat and organized. This reduces installation time and complexity, especially in offices, classrooms, warehouses, retail spaces, or large homes where access to power outlets may be limited.

Ideal uses and environments

The EPA5006GAT is well suited to professional and residential settings where network devices need to be placed in optimal locations without the constraint of nearby power sources. It fits well in office networks powering VoIP phones, in security systems with ceiling-mounted IP cameras, and in wireless networks requiring access points positioned for best coverage. Its robust protection features and reliable power delivery make it a strong choice for installations that demand consistent uptime and network performance.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
