The EST-PoE-32 Dev Board Features An Ethernet Port with PoE Support

Everything Smart Technology recently announced the EST-PoE-32 Dev Board, a new addition to their IoT and ESP-based product lineup. This board offers a Power-over-thernet feature along with wireless connectivity and can be used for IoT projects and Smart Home solutions.

The board is powered by an ESP32-WROOM-32E which features a dual-core Tensilica LX6 processor, operating at 240MHz, 8MB of flash memory, and 520KB SRAM.

We’ve covered many boards with Ethernet ports and additional features, some of them include,  ESPOI, WT32-ETH01, wESP32, and M5Stack ESP32 Ethernet, among others.

The key feature of this board is its 100Mb Ethernet port, which provides reliable wired network connections through the LAN8720 chip. Additionally, the board features 14 GPIO pins for hardware interfacing.

In terms of power handling capabilities, the board supports PoE Class 1 with up to 3.84W output, offers a USB-C port, and DC screw terminals for 9-28V input. It includes IEEE 802.3at PoE (non-isolated) and ground loop protection.

In terms of software support, this device is compatible with multiple platforms, including Home Assistant, openHAB, and Node-RED, and supports open-source firmware like ESPHome, Tasmota, and ESPEasy. It’s also suitable for development with Arduino IDE, PlatformIO, or ESP-IDF, providing a wide range of options for programmers and developers.
