Kramer PSE-1 10Gb UHD Power Over Ethernet Injector

The Kramer PSE-1 10Gb UHD Power Over Ethernet Injector is a compact, high-performance solution that brings power delivery to PoE-enabled devices over the same Ethernet cable used for data. Ideal for wallplates, extenders, and other remote or hard-to-reach endpoints, the PSE-1 enables a single HDBT or network cable to carry both data and electrical power. This streamlined approach reduces cable clutter, simplifies installation, and preserves the clean aesthetics of modern AV and IT setups. Built for professional environments, the PSE-1 supports high-bandwidth 10Gb data transfer and UHD video, ensuring that power delivery never compromises performance. Whether you’re outfitting a conference room, classroom, digital signage, or an enterprise AV deployment, the PSE-1 keeps your installation sleek, reliable, and future-ready.

• Single-cable convenience for data and power: The PSE-1 injects power over Ethernet to compatible PoE acceptors, allowing a single Ethernet run to supply both network data and electrical power. This eliminates the need for separate power adapters at the device, reduces cable clutter, and enables discreet installations behind wall plates or in tight spaces. In busy office environments, classrooms, or hospitality venues, fewer cables mean faster setups, cleaner back-of-house areas, and simpler maintenance for IT and AV teams.
• 10Gb UHD performance for demanding applications: Designed to support high-bandwidth networks and UHD video workflows, the PSE-1 ensures that data-intensive tasks—such as 4K/60Hz video, multi-stream AV presentations, and latency-sensitive streaming—continue to run smoothly while power is supplied to the endpoint. This makes it a dependable choice for modern HDBaseT and AV-over-IP ecosystems where both power and data must travel over the same copper cable without compromising quality.
• Compact, versatile installation options: The PSE-1’s small footprint is ideal for desktop use, wall-mount deployments, or integration into equipment racks or wall cavities. Whether you’re updating a conference room, upgrading an education space, or equipping a retail showroom, its unobtrusive design helps keep aesthetics intact while offering robust performance and easy cable routing that minimizes disruption during installation.
• Reliable safety and protection features: Built for professional use, the PSE-1 incorporates protective mechanisms that safeguard both the injector and the powered device. This includes safeguards against short circuits, power surges, and improper connections, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding environments. The injector maintains stable power delivery to PoE acceptors, preserving device uptime and reducing risk for critical AV systems.
• Seamless integration with Kramer ecosystem: The PSE-1 is designed to fit into Kramer’s broad range of HDBaseT, AV, and networking products. It complements Kramer extenders, switchers, and wallplates, enabling cohesive, scalable deployments. By combining power and data delivery over a single Ethernet link, it simplifies cabling strategies in both small offices and large-scale installations, while preserving compatibility with existing Kramer components and standards.
