Airtame PoE Adapter

The Airtame PoE Adapter is the essential Power over Ethernet accessory that powers Airtame 2 and delivers a reliable Ethernet connection over USB. Designed for modern offices, classrooms, and collaborative spaces, this compact, plug‑and‑play device eliminates the need for nearby power outlets while ensuring Airtame 2 stays connected and ready for seamless wireless screen sharing. By converting PoE from a switch or injector into a clean 5V USB power supply for Airtame 2 and providing a stable data path, the adapter reduces cable clutter and simplifies deployment in a wide range of environments—from ceiling mounts to conference room cabinets. Built as a dedicated PD (Powered Device), it receives PoE through a shielded RJ45 connector and outputs USB power directly to Airtame 2, so teams can deploy quickly with minimal setup and maximum reliability.

• Power and data in one elegant solution: The Airtame PoE Adapter delivers DC 5V to Airtame 2 via USB while also routing Ethernet data, simplifying cabling and ensuring a stable streaming and screen-mirroring experience in busy meeting spaces.
• Shielded RJ45 for robust network performance: A shielded Ethernet input minimizes EMI and interference in densely wired offices, helping preserve high‑quality video and reliable connectivity for Airtame 2 during presentations and screensharing sessions.
• Compact, silent design for any space: The small, fanless form factor fits behind displays, in cabinets, or on shelves without drawing attention or adding noise, keeping meeting rooms clean and distraction‑free.
• Plug‑and‑play installation with standard PoE: Simply connect to a PoE-enabled switch or injector, link Airtame 2 via USB, and you’re ready to deploy. No separate power outlet or additional adapters required.
• Flexible placement and future‑proofing: By powering Airtame 2 over PoE, you gain placement versatility—mount behind displays, in mounting brackets, or away from outlets—making room for scalable deployments across buildings.

How to install Airtame PoE Adapter

• Step 1: Connect the Airtame PoE Adapter to your PoE-enabled network switch or PoE injector using the shielded RJ45 port. Ensure the port is delivering PoE to power the adapter.
• Step 2: Connect Airtame 2 to the adapter’s USB output with a standard USB cable. The Airtame 2 will begin receiving 5V power from the adapter as soon as the PoE link is active.
• Step 3: Place Airtame 2 in its preferred location (behind a display, in a cabinet, or on a desk), making sure the USB cable reaches Airtame 2 and the RJ45 connection remains secure.
• Step 4: Power on the PoE switch or injector if needed. Airtame 2 should initialize automatically, drawing power through the PoE Adapter and establishing network access for screen sharing and collaboration.
• Step 5: Verify network connectivity and Airtame 2 performance in your management dashboard, then adjust positioning as necessary to optimize wireless presentation quality and device management.
