The '''X15-POE1 ''' is a dedicated Power over Ethernet (PoE) add-on board (HAT) designed for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5) when used with the '''[[X1500 ]]''' or '''[[X1501 ]] '''IO Boards. Compliant with the IEEE 802.3af/at PoE standards, this HAT can receive up to 25W of power from a compatible PoE network switch. It delivers both reliable operating power and network connectivity to the CM5 through a single Cat5e/Cat6 cable.
Featuring an advanced dual-output design, the board supplies 5V power to the CM5 while also providing a separate an independent 12V output to support . This output can drive peripherals such as fans, displays, or motors. This eliminates the need for an additional external power supply, simplifying system integration and reducing clutter.
==Features==
* ''' Standard Compliance ''': IEEE 802.3af & 802.3at (PoE+)
* '''Input Voltage Range ''': 36–57V DC
* '''Device Classification ''': Class 4
* '''Dual Output Power Rails ''':
5V DC / 5A (25W max) delivered via the 40-pin GPIO header.
