The ''' X15-POE1 ''' is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) Head-At-Board (HAT) specifically designed for the '''Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5)''', requiring use with either the '''X1500 ''' or ''' X1501 ''' IO base boards. Compliant with the IEEE 802.3af/at (PoE+) standard, this board can draw up to 25.5W of power from a compatible PoE switch via a single Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernet cable, simultaneously providing stable operational power and network connectivity for the CM5.
Featuring an advanced dual-output design, the board supplies 5V power to the CM5 while providing an independent 12V output. This output can drive peripherals such as fans, displays, or motors. This design eliminates reliance on the need for an additional external power suppliessupply, simplifies simplifying system integration, and reduces cable reducing clutter.
