The Ubiquiti POE-24-AF5X-EU is a specialized Gigabit Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter. It's designed specifically to provide both power and high-speed data to Ubiquiti's airFiber 5X and other compatible 24V passive PoE devices. The -EU in the model name indicates that it is sold with a power cord for use in European outlets.

Key Features and Specifications

• Targeted Compatibility: This adapter is engineered to work seamlessly with the airFiber 5X series of wireless radios, which are used for high-performance, long-distance point-to-point (PtP) and point-to-multipoint (PtMP) links.

• Power Output: It provides a 24V DC output at 1A, for a total power output of 24W. This is the specific power requirement for the airFiber 5X.

• Gigabit Ethernet Port: The adapter has a Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) port, which is essential for ensuring that the high data throughput of the airFiber 5X radio is not limited at the power source.

• Passive PoE: It uses a passive PoE method, which means it provides a constant voltage to the connected device. You must ensure that your device is compatible with 24V passive PoE to avoid damage.

• Safety Features: To protect your expensive networking equipment, it includes features such as surge protection, clamping protection, and an AC cable with an earth ground. This is especially important for outdoor installations where equipment is more vulnerable to ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) events.
