What’s Inside
GBT-65W
PARTS LIST:
- 1 X 802.3bt (POE++) to 5-24 VDC 65 watt outputs
Additional items you’ll need not included:
1 – Screws for mounting
2 – 802.3 bt Compatible POE Switch or Midspan Injector
- Looking for a solution? Try our BT-1-55V60W, BT-1-55V60W-IN, or GPOE-1AB-56V60W
3 – Home run cable from POE Switch or Injector to GBT-65W
General Installation
The GBT-65w is a PoE Splitter/ Converter. The purpose send 40-57 volts POE ++ to the input and allow GBT-65w to converts POE++ to 5-26 Volts, up to 65 Watts or 6 amps – Adjustable via screw terminal with 5% tolerance, with Gigabit data available on the LAN port.
While fully backward compatible with 802.3af/at PoE, to get full power this unit must be used with 802.3bt compliant PoE switch or injector, capable of providing at least 72 watts on the PoE output (4 pair PoE). Designed for Indoor use only.
- Use a patch cable to run from your powering equipment to this wall mounted splitter and simply mount it near the device your powering.
- Plug your PoE cable to the ‘PoE’ port on GBT-65w.
- Using your existing DC cable (or cable purchased from us -DC-21MM) hard wire into GBT-65w —[Red is (+) on the left, White is ground on the middle, and Black is (-)on the right] see below.
- Use a patch cable to connect from LAN on the splitter to LAN on your powered device.
Drawing Set
CONFIGURATION
The only configuration required is to adjust the output voltage to the required level. Our best practice is:
- Connect the PoE side to a PoE switch/injector
- Connect a multi-meter to the screw terminal output and set to measure DC voltage <200 volts.
- Use a precision head screw driver to adjust the screw port near the output. Clockwise increases the voltage, counteclockwise decreases the voltage
Note: Contact success@poetexas.com if you would like our help to set your devices voltage before it ships.
The green LED indicates power on. If the light turns blue, it indicates the device is drawing more than 60 watts of power.
If the green light begins to blink at any time, it could indicate there is a short in the circuit or a compatibility issue.
STEPS TO TROUBLESHOOT:
1 – At the injector, disconnect the PoE port from your device. Use a PoE Tester to confirm the device is able to power on using a short jumper cable.
2 – At the other end of the PoE cable to your device, disconnect the device and use the PoE Tester to confirm it is able to negotiate PoE.
3 – Connect the PoE Tester in line with the end device to monitor power consumption.
