Confused: PoE sends camera power and data &lt;--&gt; - but is there is a LAN out to my router?

Four of the switch ports are PoE. The other four are non-PoE. Plug one end of the cable into one of the non-PoE ports on the switch. Plug the other end into one of the LAN ports on your router (I assume you are using a consumer-grade netgear/dlink/linksys or equivalent... any consumer-grade router will work in this configuration.)

There are adapters (power injectors) you can purchase that lets you send the power over the Ethernet cable. The adapters go on both ends of the Ethernet cable. However, most POE switches will not recognize it as a POE device. Therefore, it won't send the required voltage out to power the device , you still have to use the power adapter that comes with the camera. This is good so you don't have to have a power source close to the camera.

Wrong.These cameras require 7.5w via 48v POE. Most routers cannot deliver this type of power. in 99% of cases you will require a POE injector. A company by the name of WiFi Texas , makes a nice set of POE injectors. I have used them for camera projects at 4 of my business's locations with over 300 cameras.

The POE (power over ethernet) comes from a POE compliant power source (e.g. injector or switch) to provide power to your cameras. The powerline adapter uses the electrical wiring in your home to provide the ethernet communications. The power for the POE camera would not be provided by the Powerline adapter, however, the Powerline adapter should be capable of providing the "ethernet" communications for the Injector or switch. FYI, use caution when connecting POE power source connections and LAN connections, basically the LAN connections is connected to the ethernet source and the POE connection is connected to the POE device. My Foscam POE cameras work nicely integrated into my home automation system.

Two physical interfaces. Rj45 wired for PoE and optional 12v power if you choose not to use PoE. With regards to protocols supported there are many, check dahua website for this camera full spec sheet.

No. Each camera requires a dedicated cable from the POE switch to the camera.

mine is connected to my camera system with the coax siamese cable. any power supply from a security camera would work. you probally could use an old poer suppy from an old router if you have

Yes. Power Over Ethernet. It uses a special router/switch which supplies power over the Ethernet cable. Alternatively you can power the camera with the included ac adapter, but installation is cleaner using POE. Either way the camera must be connected to a wired network.

Unless you are using just one camera, a POE switch is nice. It provides camera power through the network cable. I'm using http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-8-Port-100Mbps-Switch-TPE-S44/dp/B000QYEN1W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389139282&sr=8-1&keywords=trendnet+poe+switch The advantages of a POE switch are less wire clutter, and less traffic on your "Normal" home network. (4) 3.0MP cameras can generate a lot of traffic. By running the cameras to the POE switch, then my PC running Blue Iris to the switch I don't bog down my home wireless router with all the traffic.

Larry, Each POE IP camera requires a dedicated Ethernet 5/6 cable. Can't split pairs... Good luck

Your router must be set up to be a DHCP server (most are by default set that way). Then follow the easy set up procedure whick can be fould at https://www.mydlink.com/download (then select your camera model). It works like a champ! D-Link has excellent documentation in my opinion. Hope this helps!

Unless you are using just one camera, a POE switch is nice. It provides camera power through the network cable. I'm using TRENDnet 4-Port 10/100Mbps PoE Switch (4x 10/100, 4x 10/100 PoE) TPE-S44 The advantages of a POE switch are less wire clutter, and less traffic on your "Normal" home network.

Hello Andy,Thank you for your support,The ip camera support PoE (802.3af),not come with the power adapter now.Thank you very much.Fosfun

My picture doesn't show an antenna. In any case, power and Ethernet/Internet connectivity are two completely different things. Power over Ethernet (PoE) means that 2 unused wires (one + and the other -) in the WIRED connection supply power; beware that PoE voltages vary (12/24/48 v are typical) so be sure and use the right power injector! In this case, video and maybe audio will come back over other wires in the cable. If a camera has an antenna, it probably uses WiFi for its Ethernet connection, but almost always will require external power, especially for a camera like these with LEDs for target lighting.

as others said, no you don't.Also, if you have the cameras next to an Ethernet outlet, the cameras will run off POE, then you don't need any adapters.

Larry L., I am almost sure you cannot. Being this is an IP switch, each device is going to get an IP address. Also, if you are using PoE, Not sure how this would work. THEORETICALLY (and I am stretching my knowledge-base), you ca have another switch at the far end and have the cameras plugged into that. But I believe there is a 1:1 relatioship for PoE port to Cameras... I'll be interested in finding out if it does work though!
