How to use Power Over Ethernet (PoE) to power your Antenna Genius Remotely

When I contacted 403a support, I was surprised to learn that Antenna Genius does not support POE for the antenna switch. For a product so well built and sophisticated, I knew it had to be me. My goal was to mount this outside near the antennas so getting  12v to the switch was important.

But of course, being a resourceful ham and unwilling to give up, I found an inexpensive solution.

All you need is a USD $12 dollar adapter. It is working perfectly and provides gigabit Ethernet and 12vdc 2 amp output.

Hopefully, this will help you regardless of where you are mounting your switch. It is silly in 2025 to not be able to support PoE.
