PoEt
About the PoEt PCB
PoEt is an open source PCB design by kinggh0stee, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board, with 1 components from 1 distinct parts.
From the project
Open-hardware PoE → USB-C Gigabit Ethernet adapter.
A KiCad PCB project that converts an 802.3af PoE Ethernet drop into a USB-C port carrying both 5 V / 2 A power and Gigabit Ethernet over USB 3.0. Open-hardware clone of the Ubiquiti UACC-Adapter-PoE-USBC ($49 retail).
- Single RJ45 input from a PoE switch; single USB-C output to the host device - USB-C host sees a Gigabit Ethernet adapter — driver-less on Linux, Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and iPadOS - Up to 10 W (5 V × 2 A) delivered over USB-C, sufficient for a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, Pi 4 (light load), USB-C cameras, and similar single-board computers - Full Gigabit throughput with a USB 3.x…

PoEt: common questions
How big is the PoEt PCB?
The PoEt has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the PoEt?
1 components, from 1 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the PoEt design files?
From the kinggh0stee/PoEt repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the PoEt design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with kinggh0stee. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
