The X15-POE1 is a dedicated '''Power over Ethernet (PoE) addHead-on board At-Board (HAT) '''specifically designed for the''' Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5)''' when used , requiring use with either the''' X1500''' or '''X1501''' IO Boardsbase boards. Compliant with the IEEE 802.3af/at (PoE standards+) standard, this HAT board can receive draw up to 25W 25.5W of power from a compatible PoE network switch. It delivers both reliable operating via a single Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernet cable, simultaneously providing stable operational power and network connectivity to for 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 design eliminates the need for an additional reliance on external power supplysupplies, simplifying simplifies system integration , and reducing reduces cable clutter.
