I have a EnGenius EAP1250 that I would like to power using PoE. The EnGenius device states its power specs are DC IN, 12V/1A and 802.3af/at PoE Input, yet my PoE Injection adapter that I want to buy states its power specs are 48v 65W. Will either of these devices control the voltage so that my EnGenius device is not fried or do I need to find a PoE Injection adapter that is rated for 12v?
I'm worried because 2 or 3 people in the reviews said the following: "Obviously you wouldn't want to use this 48v device on something like a 5v, 12v or 24v POE device or you will fry it!"
That concerns me, because I always thought 48v was the 802.3af standard, and as long as both devices use that standard, then the voltage will be regulated automatically.
Can someone please confirm this? I tried to chat with someone at EnGenius, but it keeps saying that no one is available, and they do not have a phone number.
This is the item I'm looking at. It's cheap, but it's all I need:
iCreatin 4-Ports Passive Power over Ethernet PoE injector Adapter with 48V65W Power supply for 4 IP Camera, VOIP phones or Access Points and more
