Can this be used for POE CCTV cameras? Maximum runs around 200 to 250 feet.

I would advise against it, as this particular product is CCA wiring. That means copper clad aluminum. It is not solid copper. That means degraded performance and not true Cat5e. This is especially a problem as you get closer to the range limit of true Cat5e (100M or 328ft). I would look for Cat5e that is advertised as solid copper and UL Verified for professional use (Using CCA in a commercial setting would be considered highly unprofessional). If you are using this for your home, it is your choice but I still don't recommend it. I would also like to add if you still really, really want to use CCA you can find it cheaper than this (about $40). Solid copper Cat5e costs about $75-$80, making this particular CCA cable an even worse choice because you're not even saving any money.

Not ideal, but would likely work. Direct burial seems to have an attenuating effect on LAN drops in my experience and u r close to max run

The camera comes with a one foot pig tail. You have to buy the length of cable you need, 25', 50', 100'. The spec says it will work to around 500'. But if you put several cables end to end, you won't get that kind of distance.

One of my camera cables was too short (it has to go around the house and through crawlspace), and I made my own out of old cat-5 cable. It is close to 100ft. Camera works well. There is definitely no 15 ft limit.

You can add PoE to this using this device from Amazon WS-POE-5v-kit 5 volt power extension for Foscam or any 5 volt camera, via Power over Ethernet, up to 328 ft. with the optional 1.35mm to 2.5mm adapter.

We are so sorry we do not offer longer cable currently, also we don't suggest you to do that, because that quality of the video will become worse the longer cable you use, the cable that included in the package would be the most suitable length.Is below system work for you? It's a PoE system, it can use about 150ft cable, thanks.Zmodo 4CH 720P PoE NVR HD Security Camera System with 4 Indoor/ Outdoor Night Vision 720P Security Cameras 1TB HDD Smartphone Scan QR Code Quick Remote Access

Jeff, the distance is standard on most of these and it is not exactly what the manufacturer says -- You can go about 100 meters (or 333 feet), but safe bet is about 300ft. Then you will need a repeater. Additional info can be found under http://www.axis.com/techsup/faq/index.php/?action=artikel&&cat;=175&id;=115358&artla;ng=en&highlight;= or google PoE Distance Limit. Good luck.

The camera has a short (maybe 6 inches?) cat5 cable with a female end attached to it that will connect with your cat5 wiring. I doubt you will find anyone selling this camera along with cables that allow the camera to be connected with your router. In my case, I needed 60 ft of cable. I purchased that separately. The length of cable you need will depend on where you mount the camera, and where your router is located. Search for Cat5 patch cables, and look for one that is the appropriate length for your installation. You may want to do PoE (power over ethernet) which means you only run a Cat5 cable, and not a separate power cable, since the PoE device can transmit power through the Cat5 cable - so your network traffic and power all run through the single cable. If you have a power outlet close to where you want the camera mounted, then you don't need the PoE, since you can just use the included power supply.

I've run some really long wires for these cameras but not the ones provided, I used Siamese cable and I think I did a 150ft run no problem

If you do, the voltage drop will be quite a lot, and the camera might not work. For runs more than 10 ft you should use an active injector / splitter

Hello Maheswaran, as long as the third party IP cameras you have is 803.3af PoE Protocol compatible, it should work. There is also 100m or 300 ft. limitation on the distance of the PoE IP cameras and the NVR due to the data and PoE capabilities.

Yes, it should work but a recent lighting strike made me using multiple 4 port poe injectors. This device was the only one failed and kicked out 5 of 8 cameras.

look for other. works well in open space with no other electrical interference. we use this to power and connect to ip cameras. good for poe up to 200ft, approx.

This is not a PoE camera - but you can power it via Ethernet if you use this kit WS-POE-12v-10w-kit Power over Ethernet for Any Non PoE 12 Volt Devices To 328 Feet with 1 Amps and 12 Watts Complete Kit

Even though the camera is rated as suitable for outdoor I wonder how well it will stand up to the elements. Also, I think 800' exceeds the cabling standards for Ethernet by a wide margin but you should check on this. I think you may need to go with a commercial grade system.

I had to run a power line in my attic to near where the camera was mounted outside and drill a hole to reach the camera. You could possibly try POE (power over Ethernet) but then you most likely would have to run a very long Ethernet cable. I'm not sure this camera supports POE, you should check with the manufacturer. One alternative might be to install one if those wheels that gerbils run on and buy a generator so when the gerbil runs it generates power for your camera, most devices do require power.....

I have tested this with a POE Injector and it does work. Here is what I used to test and only to test. http://www.amazon.com/WS-POE-8-48v60w-passive-Ethernet-Injector-cameras/dp/B0086SQDMM/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1403580667&sr=8-5&keywords=poe+switch I have to warn you about poe injectors and switches, make sure that when you get a POE injector it has a surge protection. Not all do this and can blow an IP camera out when there is a surge.
