Why would you need to buy a power kit if the CX3000 uses PoE (Power over Ethernet)?

In the USA, Canada and most western countries you don't need to buy a Power Kit but in some countries you do because the network switches and hubs don not have sufficient current to support external devices. Thanks

Nope. You'll need to purchase a separate POE injector. Make sure the injector is gigabit ready and is at least 802.3af (15.4w) compliant.

There is a CAT5 connection and a 12v power connection. The CAT5 is PoE capable.

Yes. You can even use a power over ethernet injector to prevent having to use a power outlet. The covers they offer are also nice.

No, it doesn't. Power supply must be ordered separately... I think the manufacturer expects you to use "Power Over Ethernet" (or it's an excuse to not include one...)

Nope. I just bought an inexpensive POE injector because it was cheaper than buying their separate power supply.

If you looking to pull off just Ethernet it needs to be powered. Some directv boxes power the device via the coax so the ac adapter is not required

The device get power though the Ethernet cable that has a little block that basically "splices" two cables. That block is plugged in to the standard AC plug.You will have to provide the Ethernet cables, needing 2, and keep them short. By short I mean 75 feet from the power point to the EnGenius. You need to be rather familiar with networking IP rules, as the man is not very clear. I recommend updating the firmware from the EnGenius site before install, but that is just me. You should not have issues out of the box.

No it's Ethernet port does not support PoE. Its DC In port is its only intake for power.

Doesn't look like it will. From the Engenious specs: Active Ethernet: (Power-over-Ethernet) Proprietary PoE Design. They want you to buy their PoE injector.Why not go with Ubiquiti instead? I have several of their products installed and never had a problem or failure - only issue was one of their POE-15 power supplies failed on me.

No, power adapter would be purchased separately. It came with ethernet cable with RJ45 PIN for PoE.

Theses only include the power supply. The higher end units do come with the POE injectors

No. These cable assemblies are designed to be used with the power supply for the device you want to power. POE power is 48 volts and requires that the device you are trying to power can take the 48 volts and convert it to what it needs. The power from the device power supply is simply injected into the ethernet cable at the source end then extracted at the other end.

I have not tested it w/power, but it is a straight through connector and should connect anything straight through, if there is not a resistance or current special requirement for POE. It should be easy to check.

It comes with a simple proprietary PoE injector which you must use. It can't be powered by standard 802.3af/802.3at PoE switches or injectors, nor does it have a power input jack directly on the device.This product's simple proprietary PoE implementation is limited in range: It doesn't support full 100 m (300 ft) Ethernet twisted pair cable runs, after about 25 m the voltage drop is enough to cause random reboots when using maximum transmission power. This fact isn't mentioned in the manual.

The power supply converts 110vac to 12vdc, If you want to power them over Ethernet you need 12-18v, NON 802.3af.

No, you do not have to use the power supply but PoE adapters and switches are more expensive.
