Product SKU: T8134-1
Product Overview
Powering high-draw network devices such as PTZ cameras, network intercoms, and audio systems often exceeds what a standard PoE switch port can supply. The AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC (02209-001) addresses this directly by injecting up to 90W of IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) compliant power over a single Ethernet cable, removing the need for a separate power supply at the device end. Featuring both AC (100-240V) and DC (10-28V) power inputs, it integrates into a wide range of site conditions, including remote locations where only DC power from battery or solar sources is available. It also incorporates overload and short-circuit protection to maintain stable operation under demanding conditions. Installation is plug-and-play with no software configuration required, making it practical for rapid deployment across professional surveillance, access control, and networked audio installations.
Key Capabilities
90W PoE Power Output
Delivers up to 90W over a single Ethernet cable, meeting the power demands of high-draw devices such as PTZ cameras, multi-sensor cameras, network intercoms, and powered audio systems that exceed the limits of standard PoE or PoE+ ports.
Dual AC/DC Power Input
Accepts AC input (100-240V) and DC input (10-28V), making this midspan suitable for standard mains-powered facilities as well as remote or off-grid sites running on battery banks, solar systems, or vehicle-based power.
IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) Compliance
Full compliance with the IEEE 802.3bt standard ensures broad compatibility with Axis and third-party PoE++ devices, reducing integration risk when deploying into mixed-brand network infrastructure.
Overload and Short-Circuit Protection
Built-in overload and short-circuit protection guards connected devices against power faults, maintaining stable network uptime and reducing the risk of damage during unexpected electrical events in professional installations.
Plug-and-Play Deployment
No software configuration or additional setup is required. The midspan connects inline between the network switch and the powered device, making it straightforward to deploy in both new installations and retrofits where existing switch ports lack sufficient power output.
Best For
- PTZ Camera Power: Supplies the sustained 90W output that motorised PTZ cameras with continuous pan, tilt, and zoom functions typically require, where standard PoE switch ports fall short.
- Remote and Off-Grid Sites: The DC input (10-28V) allows deployment at locations powered by solar panels, battery systems, or vehicle-mounted power sources, where AC mains supply is unavailable.
- Network Intercoms and Door Stations: Provides reliable, protected power to IP intercoms and access control door stations in security-sensitive entry points where power continuity is critical.
- Networked Audio Systems: Powers network speakers and public address equipment in facilities requiring stable power delivery for emergency announcements or background audio over Ethernet infrastructure.
Why Choose the AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC
The AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC (02209-001) is one of the few single-port midspan units that supports IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) at 90W while also accepting DC power input as low as 10V. Most standard PoE injectors are limited to 15W or 30W and are restricted to AC input only, making them unsuitable for high-draw devices or off-grid deployment. The dual input design here means a single SKU can be used across mains-powered commercial sites and battery-backed remote installations without sourcing a separate product. Built-in overload and short-circuit protection adds a layer of infrastructure reliability that passive injectors do not provide. For installers and systems integrators sourcing professional-grade PoE infrastructure, this unit is available through Security Wholesalers as part of the Axis Communications accessories range.
Buyer Tip: Before purchasing, confirm the actual power draw of the device you intend to power. While this midspan delivers up to 90W, many PTZ cameras and intercoms draw significantly less than this at steady state. If your device requires 30W or less, a standard PoE+ injector may be sufficient. The 90W midspan is the right choice specifically when your device is rated for PoE++ (802.3bt Type 3 or Type 4) or when power budget headroom is required for reliable operation in cold environments where motor startup draw spikes.

Ideal Use Cases
PTZ Camera Installations
PTZ cameras with motorised pan, tilt, and zoom mechanisms have variable power demands that can exceed standard PoE switch port limits. The 90W output of this midspan provides sufficient headroom for sustained PTZ operation without power-induced performance drops.
Remote and Solar-Powered Sites
The DC input (10-28V) enables deployment at locations without mains AC power, such as rural properties, construction sites, or mobile surveillance units running from battery banks or solar charge controllers.
Access Control and Intercom Points
IP intercoms and door stations at entry points require stable, protected power. The built-in overload and short-circuit protection in this midspan helps maintain uptime at security-critical access points.
Network Audio and Public Address
Network speakers and paging devices in commercial facilities, warehouses, and public spaces can be powered via this midspan without running separate power cabling, simplifying the infrastructure for audio-over-IP deployments.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need to power a single IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) device drawing up to 90W, particularly where DC power input is required or where your existing switch does not provide sufficient per-port power budget.
- Choose a different model if: You need to power multiple devices simultaneously from a single unit. A managed PoE switch with multiple high-power ports would be more appropriate for multi-device deployments. If your device only requires standard PoE (15.4W) or PoE+ (30W), a lower-rated single-port injector may be a more cost-effective option.
FAQs
- What types of devices is the AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC designed to power?
This midspan is designed for high-power PoE devices including PTZ cameras, network intercoms, door stations, network speakers, and other IEEE 802.3bt compliant equipment. It is particularly suited to devices that exceed the power capacity of standard PoE (15.4W) or PoE+ (30W) switch ports.
- Can this midspan be used with a DC power source such as a solar system or battery bank?
Yes. The AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC accepts DC input in the range of 10-28V, in addition to standard AC mains (100-240V). This makes it directly compatible with common solar charge controller output voltages and 12V or 24V battery systems used at remote sites.
- How many devices can this midspan power at the same time?
This is a single-port midspan, meaning it powers one PoE device per unit. If you need to power multiple high-draw devices, you would need one midspan per device or a managed PoE switch capable of delivering sufficient per-port power to each connected device.
- Is the AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC compatible with non-Axis cameras and devices?
Yes. Full compliance with the IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) standard means this midspan is broadly compatible with any PoE++ device from Axis or third-party manufacturers, provided the device negotiates power correctly over the standard protocol.
- Does installing this midspan require any software setup or network configuration?
No configuration is required. The AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC operates as a transparent inline power injector between your network switch and the powered device. It passes data through without altering it, and power delivery is handled automatically via the IEEE 802.3bt negotiation process.
- Where can I source the AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC (02209-001) in Australia?
The AXIS 90W Midspan AC/DC is available through Security Wholesalers as part of the Axis Communications accessories range. It is stocked alongside compatible Axis cameras, intercoms, and network audio equipment, allowing installers to source power infrastructure and devices from the same supplier.
