Pi Supply and Pi-hole have partnered together to bring you the Pi-hole Ad Blocker PoE (Power over Ethernet) edition - a device that allows you to block all of those annoying advertisements on the internet and power your Pi-hole device with just a single Ethernet cable! Since Pi-hole works at the DNS level, ads can be blocked on any device and even in apps.
Kit contains
Power over Ethernet (PoE) Features
The Pi PoE Switch HAT is a power over ethernet add-on board for the Raspberry Pi that brings the Pi Supply Switch technology together with PoE all in one fantastic package! You can now power your Raspberry Pi and provide an Ethernet connection in any location with just a single cable.
Pi PoE is completely plug and play - no software required in order for Pi PoE to provide power and Ethernet directly to your Pi-hole kit and it will work straight out of the box.
Block Over 100,000 Ad-serving Domains
Known ad-serving domains are pulled from third party sources and compiled into one list.
Block Advertisements On Any Device
Network-level blocking you to block ads in non-traditional placed such as mobile apps and smart TVs, regardless of hardware or OS.
Improve Overall Network Performance
Since ads are blocked before they are downloaded, your network will perform better.
Reduce Cellular Data Usage
Pair your Pi-hole with a VPN for on-the-go ad-blocking and save on data costs.
Monitor Performance And Statistics
The Web interface shows how many ads were blocked, a query log, and more.
API
Utilize Pi-hole’s API in your scripting or programming projects.

Use Pi-Hole As Your DNS Server
Configure your router’s DHCP options to force clients to use Pi-hole as their DNS server, or manually configure each device to use the Pi-hole as their DNS server.
If your router doesn’t let you change these settings, you can use Pi-hole’s built in DHCP server to achieve the same effect.
Block Ads Everywhere
Since Pi-hole works at the DNS level, ads can be blocked on any device and even in apps.
