Compulab FACE Module FM-POE – Power over Ethernet Expansion for fitlet® Systems

The Compulab FM-POE FACE Module adds Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability to compatible fitlet® industrial PCs, enabling the system to power connected edge devices directly through the Ethernet interface. This allows a single unit to deliver both data and power to peripherals such as IP cameras, wireless access points, sensors, and other PoE-enabled equipment.

Designed for seamless integration, the module installs directly into the FACE slot and becomes part of the system’s compact, fanless enclosure. The cable-free architecture preserves industrial reliability, simplifies installation, and reduces the need for external power supplies – a key advantage in distributed IoT and smart infrastructure deployments.

By providing PoE at the edge, the FM-POE helps system integrators build cleaner and more service-friendly solutions where fewer components are required in the field. This is especially valuable in environments with limited space, difficult access, or strict uptime requirements.

The module integrates smoothly with both Linux and Windows IoT platforms, supporting centralized device management and long lifecycle edge installations.
