Ubiquiti INS-3AF-O-G Instant 802.3af Outdoor Gigabit PoE Converter

The Ubiquiti Instant 802.3af Outdoor Gigabit Adapter (INS-3AF-O-G) converts standard 48V 802.3af PoE supply into 24V passive PoE, making it compatible with Ubiquiti devices that require passive power delivery. This gigabit-capable adapter serves as the upgraded version of the INS-8023AF-O model.

Key Features

This outdoor-rated PoE converter delivers reliable power conversion in challenging environmental conditions. The weatherproof construction operates across a wide temperature range from -30°C to 70°C, suitable for outdoor network installations year-round. Built-in 15kV Ethernet ESD/surge protection safeguards connected equipment from electrical damage.

The gigabit RJ45 port ensures full network speed capability without bottlenecks, supporting modern high-bandwidth applications. The compact design measures 30.2 x 166 mm and weighs just 90 grams, allowing flexible mounting options in space-constrained locations.

Power Conversion Specifications

Input power accepts standard 48V 802.3af PoE from compatible switches and injectors. Output delivers 24V at 0.5A through passive PoE using pairs 4, 5+ and 7, 8 return configuration. This power method matches the requirements of numerous Ubiquiti wireless access points, cameras, and other network devices that utilize passive PoE instead of standard 802.3af.
