Ideal for cutting down on cable clutter without having to rely on a wireless connection. I can now run a tiny Pi home server with just one ethernet cable run from my PoE switch. My only annoyance is that the built-in fan, while not exactly loud, is quite high pitched and noticeable even over e.g. a TV playing in the background. Bear this in mind if you're deploying this somewhere like a living room.

It's perfect for my project, I'm looking to purchase 5 more.

Fan can be a little noisy, and surprising, in a quiet room but only comes on when Pi is working hard. Generally a nice bit of kit.

Plug and play power for your pi, supposedly uses slightly more power than usb power, but for enclosed spaces or fiddly builds this is ideal.

Excellent little add-on, the fan is not too intrusive and it is easy to set up.

Perfect hat for adding a Pi to a rack with PoE. Needed 16mm standoffs and the header kit to clear the 4-heatsink kit I also got, but works great. I also replaced the fans with 40mm Noctua fans with a 3d printed adapter, as noise is a problem. Great!

Really easy to use, 4 screws and standoffs and carefully locate / push onto the POE and 40 pin headers. I'm using them to power a Pi4B and a Pi3B, this fits both and both booted fine as soon as they were connected. Very pleased and will buy more when I add another Pi

Easy to install. Uses ALL the GPIO pins rather than just the ones it needs. Bit of a shame. The power and IO LEDs are VERY bright, which makes me think it over-supplies a little bit. Gets warm, but haven't seen it activate the fan yet. Running OpenWRT with a fair amount of traffic through it. Hoping the reliability is good. 5 days now, 24x7 operations, not a hint of a reset. Recommended.
