Hi folks, just wondering if anyone knows whether I can connect POE injector devices to power 2 x Unifi WiFi access points if I have Powerlne TL-PA9020P devices connected to the same electrical circuit at my home?

Hey

 

In short answer, yes there is no problem with doing this.   POE sends power over the Ethernet cable, Powerline uses the electrical cables to send signals, they can work together with no issues.

 

However, you cannot send POE into the Powerline adaptor, the injector needs to be at the client side of the powerline connection.
