Ceiling Mount and POE adapter Eero Pro 6
Has anyone found a ceiling mount for the pro 6 or POE adapter? If not, does anyone know if they are coming soon? We had our new house wired for AP's, and I would love to be able to use the system the way we planned.

Yes, PoE doesn't have enough power for the eero Pro 6, not even enough for eero Pro, BUT PoE+ does, and I have the eero Pro 6 working with using PoE+ injector and PoE+ splitter. Now eero please stop making excuses and make an official PoE+ Splitter, and also while you're at it a wall mount for them as the third party ones look just awful.

This is simply not true. We mainly use Ruckus for our networking needs, but also offer Eero pro to residential clients who do not want to spend "Ruckus money" for their home network. There are plenty of network switches that can provide 30-60W of power per channel, as well as 60W POE injectors. I would use Eero more if the Pro6 model with a POE bracket was an option.
I do not like using Eero's wirelessly if I can avoid it. We use a separate router and either a powerful POE switch, or injectors and hard wire all of our Eero's using this POE bracket. We then put them in bridge mode and let the separate router handle DHCP, and it works amazingly well.

It's more of a workaround, as I would like eero to make a dedicated PoE+ splitter/injector set so I don't have to waste the wall mounts as they're useless to me, they also need to make a wall/ceiling mount for the eero Pro 6, having said that I used the eero Pro wall mount/splitter set, wired with Cat5 or Cat6, both have worked for me. I attached an official list from eero of suggested switches and injectors.

Good morning. I apologize for intruding on this thread. I’m not a tech professional and was referred here eero for help…. I recently moved into a new home that has been pre wired with 3 WAP point boxes in the ceiling with cat 6 cables in the living room, back lanai and upstairs. Every room in the house has the tv wired with cat 6 cables. Everything leads to the master closet where there is a rack with a switch ( I think it’s called a switch) with 24 cables plugged in and the unversed 1000mbs AT&T modem /wireless router. I guess what I’m asking is from the pros on this thread, what do I need specifically to mesh my house with the eero pro 6 attached to the ceiling and using POE, POE+ or POE++. What do I specifically need brand of what I need and where to purchase? Injectors I’d necessary? Thank you for any help
