Hello, what product and where I can find it to power ePMP Force 200 5 GHz with a 24 VDC Circuit?
Any 24 V POE injector.
It is irrelevant whether it has +(4.5 pin) or (7.8 pin)
likewise whether it is -(4.5pin) or (7.8pin) he can do both.
It can be gigabit and 100 mbps and its output voltage is 10-30 V.
As my friend says, “ePMP Force 180 and Force 200 in the absence of a POE injector, plug the cable into the potato and it works”
In my opinion, it is the best device that Cambium has released on the market so far.
Thanks for your help. It’s not about the injector, since the Force 200 already comes with a PoE injector. What is needed is to power the radio using a 24V DC circuit, meaning they don’t have regular AC but rather 24V DC.
I would recommend looking at Tycon Power, they make POEs that support direct DC. I don’t remember if the Force 200 support Gigabit ethernet, but something like this could work. I recommend looking over specs. They have other models as well.
Thank you very much for your help. Yes, the Force 200 does have Gigabit Ethernet interface.
Thanks, but is not for AC Power, the power supply must connect direct to DC source.
A couple of things to note.
- If you look at the radio specs, the power input is 10vdc to 30vdc. The Cambium PoE injectors are 29.5vdc but the radios can run very comfortably at 24vdc or lower. You just need to made sure you provide 10w (max draw) at whatever power you are sending.
- The Tycon TP-DCDC-1224G is a DC input (10vdc to 36vdc) with a 24vdc 20watt output. It’s also Gbit. I have used these extensively and they work great for solar builds or oil/gas monitoring etc which are often 12vdc.
- You can even run the radios directly off a 12vdc or 24vdc battery using pins 4,5,7,8 for power but then you only have 100Mbps not Gb.
The picture from my previous post and this one now talk about the same thing, only different manufacturers. You power them from a DC source.
If you type gigabit passive POE into a web browser, you will find many variations on the same topic.
You introduce DC power from the source you mention through the DC input jack and that’s it.
For the ePMP Force 200, you don’t need to worry about polarity at all, it works in both cases. With reverse polarity, the Force 200 will work properly, but on this POE from the picture you will not have an LED indication.
You rotate the polarity indication, the device works.
There are also versions with a red-green LED that lights up in both cases and you have an indication of polarity or reverse polarity.
ePMP Force 200 is the best Cambium product.
Mikrotik RB960PGS will power this easily and will accept 24vdc input.

I’ve used this Tycon TP-DCDC-1224G to power an ePMP F325 on a solar site. Worked great.
