Description
XTAR-Link EL8 Pro — The Essential Power Station for Starlink
"The EL8 PRO is a portable power station designed specifically to power Starlink off-grid. It's compatible with Gen 2, Gen 3, and Mini, efficiently delivering POE to your Starlink without inverter losses."
"But why would you choose this? Because it's about 30% more efficient than direct PoE power eliminating converters. It maximizes your battery life. It runs longer and more reliable."
Why You Need EL8 Pro
Starlink draws high power and typical outdoor solutions are heavy, inefficient, or fragile in bad weather. EL8 Pro solves that: it's compact, Starlink‑optimized, and eliminates inverter losses so you get longer runtime from a smaller pack — with safe, selectable PoE voltages for the three Starlink models and an easy plug‑and‑play setup.
Key Feature:
Supports Three Starlink Models
Compatible with Starlink Gen2, Gen3, and Mini — one station powers them all.
30% Energy Saving
Intelligent power management reduces energy consumption and extends battery life.
Plug-and-Play & Portable
Lightweight, compact design makes outdoor setups fast and easy.
Replaceable Battery Pack

Installation & Setup Guide
⚠️ Important Voltage Selection Notice
- 48V Mode: For Starlink Mini and Standard Actuated.
- 57V Mode: For Standard systems only.
Switching Procedure: Before connecting the antenna, the correct voltage must be set first. To do this, unplug the PoE cable from your Starlink, select the required voltage (48V or 57V) using the rear switch or screen setting, and then reconnect the cable. Using the incorrect voltage may cause startup failure or permanent equipment damage.
Starlink Connection Guide
Setup in 3 simple steps:
- Connect Starlink PoE cable → EL8 Pro PoE Port.
- Connect Ethernet cable → EL8 Pro LAN Port → Router / Device.(This step is only performed when Gen2(Standard Actuated) and Gen3(Standard) networks need to be expanded.
- Turn ON the EL8 Pro. The system powers Starlink automatically.

FAQ
Which Starlink models are compatible?
EL8 Pro supports Starlink Mini, Standard, and Standard Actuated models. Simply select 48V or 57V PoE output as needed.
Can I charge it with solar panels?
Yes. EL8 Pro supports MPPT solar charging up to 180W. Connect directly using standard DC5521 input cables.
How long can it run Starlink?
Runtime depends on the Starlink model and network activity. Typically, the 648Wh version powers Starlink for 6–10 hours (based on average use).
Can it charge other devices at the same time?
Yes. You can charge phones, laptops, and cameras through USB-A or USB-C ports while powering Starlink simultaneously.
Can it charge & power simultaneously?
Yes. While charging, EL8 Pro powers your Starlink and other devices at the same time—automatically prioritizing Starlink when charging power is high, and using the battery when it's low.

Let customers speak for us
We were RV'ing in Montana when we damaged our Starlink cable
We were RV'ing in Montana when we damaged our Starlink cable. I looked on eBay and found XTAR who would FedEx it out to us in a remote location. It arrived quickly and saved the trip. Great service and the cable is a good quality.
Power saver
I installed and used for 5 months straight without any issues on my sailboat while cruising the Bahamas. Was able to save on power consumption with this set up. Unit would be warm to touch but not hot. WiFi provided with the kit provided good coverage from any where on the boat (48 footer).

Perfect RV upgrade for the Starlink Gen 2.
I picked up the foldable tripod after leaving my stock metal one on a picnic table at the last campground. I love that it's light-weight, and folds up. So, much easier to store. The Gen 2 Starlink fits into the tripod and clamps firmly. I've had it set up in fairly windy conditions, and never found it tipped over. I did use the provided stakes once in a very windy location. Worked like a champ.
Easy purchase and install
Easy purchase and when it arrived, easy install.
