Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 4,500, brand new and sealed. This version delivers 30W at 48V DC over a standard Ethernet cable while passing Gigabit data straight through, so one cable both powers and connects a device. The Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter accepts 100 to 240V AC at 50/60Hz, which covers Kenya's 240V mains. Its plug is the two-pin European type, while Kenyan wall sockets are the three-pin UK Type G, so you need an EU-to-UK plug adapter. Collect it at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for network installers, IT staff and homeowners setting up UniFi Wi-Fi across Kenya, the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter solves a common wiring headache. Ceiling access points and wall-mounted devices rarely sit near a power socket, and hiring an electrician to add one costs time and money. With the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter, the socket stays beside your router, and a single Ethernet run carries power up to the device. It suits a single access point in a Lavington home, a guesthouse corridor in Naivasha, or a classroom block at a school in Machakos where no PoE switch exists.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell unbranded injectors with vague wattage, Mascom International stocks the genuine Ubiquiti part with its rated 30W output. Customers across Nairobi tell us they buy one for each new access point instead of replacing a working router with a PoE switch. At Mascom International, we're seeing steady demand from installers adding Wi-Fi 7 access points to older networks. Pick up the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter at our Kimathi Street shop, or order it with pay-on-arrival delivery to any county in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter
How much is the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter in Kenya?
The Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter costs KSh 4,500 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the adapter, its power cord and a 6-month warranty through Mascom International. It does not include the Ethernet cables or the EU-to-UK plug adapter a Kenyan socket needs. Compared with a PoE switch, it is the low-cost route when you are powering one device. Delivery is pay-on-arrival to all 47 counties, so you pay only after checking it.
Will the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter plug into a Kenyan wall socket?
Not directly; the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter in stock has a European two-pin plug, and Kenyan homes and offices use three-pin UK Type G sockets. A basic EU-to-UK plug adapter from any electrical shop solves this, and you can ask us about one when ordering. Its 100 to 240V input range handles Kenya's 240V supply without a converter. Because KPLC voltage can surge after outages, plug it into a surge-protected extension or UPS alongside your router.
Which UniFi access points can the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter power?
The Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter supplies 30W of PoE+ power, enough for access points such as the Ubiquiti UniFi U6+, Ubiquiti UniFi U6 Pro and Ubiquiti UniFi U7 Pro. Each of those runs within that 30W budget, including the Wi-Fi 7 Ubiquiti UniFi U7 Pro, which needs PoE+ rather than the older, lower-power PoE standard. One adapter powers one device. Devices that need more than 30W, such as some outdoor units and larger PoE++ hardware, require a higher-rated injector or switch instead.
Should I buy the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter or the lower-power U-POE-af injector?
Buy the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter if you run current or future UniFi access points, because it supplies PoE+ power that newer models expect. Ubiquiti's U-POE-af is built to the older 802.3af standard, which delivers less power and suits lighter devices only. The af version can leave a Wi-Fi 7 access point underpowered or refusing to start. Pick the af injector only for an older, low-draw device you never plan to replace; for any new UniFi Wi-Fi installation, the PoE+ adapter is the safer long-term choice.
Can the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter power the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus?
Yes, the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter can power the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus, which peaks at 9.6W, well inside the adapter's 30W output. This is the simplest way to run that console beside an ISP router or the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra, neither of which supplies PoE. Connect the router to the LAN port and the console to the PoE port. Mascom International stocks the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus at KSh 50,000.
Does the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter slow down my internet?
No, the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter passes data at 10, 100 or 1,000Mbps, so it does not cap a Gigabit connection. Data enters through the LAN port and leaves with power through the PoE port, unchanged. Whether you run a Safaricom, Zuku or Airtel fibre package, the adapter keeps up with the line. Speed depends far more on your package, the access point and the cable quality. Use Cat5e or Cat6 cable for Gigabit runs to the ceiling.
Where should I place the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter?
Place the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter indoors near your router, in a spot that stays between 0 and 40°C. It is not weatherproof, so keep it out of ceilings exposed to rain leaks, outdoor walls and damp corners common in Mombasa and Kisumu. A shelf or the inside of a network cabinet works well. The status LED lets you confirm power at a glance, which helps when troubleshooting an access point that has gone quiet.
Who should buy the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter, and who should skip it?
Buy the Ubiquiti U-POE-AT PoE+ Adapter if you need to power one or two PoE+ devices from a router that has no PoE ports. It suits homes, small offices and installers adding a single access point. Skip it if you already own a PoE switch with spare PoE+ ports, since it adds nothing there. Skip it too for sites with four or more powered devices; a UniFi PoE switch keeps the cabinet tidier and puts everything on one power source.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- PoE+ injector — adds electrical power to a standard Ethernet cable so one line carries both data and power
- Powers one device per adapter — ideal for a single access point, camera or console without a PoE switch
- Gigabit data passthrough — network traffic flows through untouched at up to 1,000Mbps
- Removes the need for sockets at ceiling level — the device draws power from the cable, not a nearby outlet
- Genuine Ubiquiti accessory — built to the same PoE+ specification UniFi devices are designed around
- Plug-and-play setup — no software, drivers or settings; connect two cables, switch on, and the device powers up
Power Output and Input
- 30W rated output — enough for PoE+ access points and consoles drawing up to that limit
- 48V DC at 0.65A — the standard voltage PoE+ devices expect, delivered safely over the cable
- Input of 100 to 240V AC — works on Kenyan 240V mains and on supplies abroad without a converter
- Input frequency of 50/60Hz — compatible with power grids worldwide
- Status LED — a light that confirms the adapter is powered, useful when tracing a fault
- Power cord included — the adapter connects to the mains through a supplied cord with a European two-pin plug
Ports and Data
- LAN input port — connects to your router or switch to bring network data into the adapter
- PoE output port — sends combined power and data on to the access point or other device
- 10/100/1000Mbps speeds — matches any Ethernet device, from older printers to Gigabit access points
- RJ45 connectors — the standard network plug found on every router, switch and access point
- Works with Cat5e and Cat6 cable — common network cable types sold by the metre or as patch leads
- Two-cable layout — one short patch lead from the router, one longer run up to the powered device
Compatibility and Use
- Runs access points such as the Ubiquiti UniFi U6+, Ubiquiti UniFi U6 Pro and Ubiquiti UniFi U7 Pro — all within its 30W output
- Works with any router or switch brand — the adapter only adds power, so the upstream equipment does not matter
- Powers the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus — that console peaks at 9.6W, well inside the adapter's rating
- Pairs with routers that lack PoE — including ISP fibre routers and the Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra
- Not for devices above 30W — larger PoE++ hardware needs a higher-rated injector or switch
- EU two-pin plug — Kenyan Type G sockets need an EU-to-UK plug adapter, which is not included
Build and Inclusions
- Dimensions of 62 x 93 x 35mm — small enough to sit beside a router or tuck into a cabinet
- Weight of 156g — light enough to rest on a shelf without fixings
- Operating temperature of 0 to 40°C — keep it indoors and out of direct sun
- White casing — blends with white routers, walls and UniFi hardware
- Indoor desktop design — made for shelves and network cabinets, not for outdoor walls or open roof spaces
- Certified CE, FCC, IC and UL — passed recognised electrical safety and emissions standards
Package Contents
