[PoE injector:]

Hello,
I just wanted to confirm that I solved the case with the help of your suggestions.

I got a "PoE injector" and a "PoE pass-through" and everything is working as expected (with around 60 €).

PoE pass-through: https://www.amazon.it/dp/B08VDWSHFL?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Many thanks!

Many thanks all for your help!

Specifying my use-case will definitely help understanding the scenario.
During the renovation work at home, almost all the ethernet cables were addressed to the same electrical box (wall mounted). Which is placed in a different zone than where the modem/router is located.

I need a device without power adapter basically because i do not have electrical cables within the electrical box where these ethernet cables arrive.
This device will be place into the wall (inside the box) for extending my home network. Otherwise there is no way for these cables to be physically connected to the network (and the wi-fi can't reach each rooms with sufficient bandwidth, despite I've a fiber 1000 Megabit/s connected to the modem/router).

In the mentioned electrical box I have: 1 cable coming from the modem/router, and 4 cables coming from different rooms (4+1).
A device 3+1 will solve the situation (I can configure one of the television with Wi-Fi with acceptable results), if a 4+1 is not available.

so, for the sake of clarity:

- switch to be put inside an electrical box (without electric power), so that nothing is visible outside
- it is needed to connect 4 devices through this switch, to the modem/router (if not existing: 3+1 would be OK)
- the goal is extending the home network (via cable)

Thanks again!!

PS. Maybe the solution found by deanwebb (PoE passthrough switch) will solve? The doubt here is that my modem/router is not able to PoE this passthrough switch.

Good, thanks for this hint!

So, it should get power from my modem/router (does it need to be a specific device, for powering the "PoE passthrough switch"?), and the act as a switch for connecting the other devices to my home network.
Is it right?

Thanks again!

thanks for your feedback!

I found out this video on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAjZPm6OUhY&t=186s (set the seconds on which you can see the right frame) where, unfortunately, this switch is powered by an adapter (on the right side). 

Anyway, if it was without the adapter, it was definitely PERFECT: right dimensions, right number of ports, no need of specific featues...

I decided to post here as it seems that is not that easy to find a device like the one I need, I actually didn't expect to meet these difficulties on this.

Many thanks, in advance, in case you could help again on this matter.

Regards!
Daniele

Hello,
I'm looking for a Switch (4+1) without the power adapter.
Is there anything powered by Ethernet?

Thanks!
