It does not have auto detection function and directly supply power to devices by force as as you connect ,powered device or poe splitter must conform to standard IEEE 802.3af/at,the same time your powered device must support poe pin 4/5(+),7/8(-)midspan. Power Input = Power Output*channels,Take 4Port POE,injector as example:DC48V 4A Input = DC12 V1A Output per channel,DC48V 2A Input = DC48V 0.5A output per channel.If you only use 3 of 4 channels,DC12V3 A input = DC12V 1A output per channel. select according your device power consumption,in order to stable running,the power consumption must be lower than the power supply.This POE adapter apply for IEEE802.3af/at standard POE powered devices like , and other IP cameras,or being equipped together with IEEE802.3af/802.3at standard poe splitter for non POE devices.
