Hello,

 

Sorry that the Archer A5 doesn't support POE and it can only be powered on by the supplied power adapter.

 

What do you mean you can only use the Cat 6 UTP and it is not longer than 15m? Does it mean it will not work if that cat6 UTP is longer than 15m? You may try with a cat6 UTP with better quality which is supplied by authorized resellers.

 

Good days.
