PoE is a standard (IEEE 802.3af), so yes, you can power any PoE device that uses 15.4 watts or less with this switch. I've used it for VoIP phones, and various Access Points (APs). There are some rare devices that require the newer 802.3at standard, which provides 25.5 watts of power, but this is fairly rare. This switch has proven to be reliable for me, with configuration features I would expect on a higher-end switch, such as the ability to configure trunking (802.1q tagging) a voice VLAN, etc. It is also fairly intuitive to configure. I like the combination of features and value for this switch. PoE is a standard (IEEE 802.3af), so yes, you can power any PoE device that uses 15.4 watts or less with this switch.

Yes. I use it for hikvision and q-see cameras. All ports are powered which is nice.

Do not have POE built in. The power supply is power adapter. Just make sure your camera is Onvif. This item can works with all the IP camera we supply.

Add - On: I actually believe there is pigtail that you can use a plug-in transformer too, but the whole point of using POE is having one wire from your network all the way to your camera.

YES! I have installed the 8 camera set from the SDE-5001 System. You'll note the "POE" statements. That's Power Over Ethernet. It only uses 5 wires of the 8 wires in the Cat 6 cable. Cable runs can maintain good quality to 160 feet... sometime even longer runs.

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.

Hello I have a 4 Channel system POE as of now. I bought two of the wireless cameras as additional after receiving information from Zmodo that they will integrate with My NVR. I was misinformed. The Cameras worked great with the Zsight app however they cannot communicate with the NVR and record since it is channel specific and I was using all 4 channels. You can only record the eight channels you have. If however you have channels available they may work ok. Hope this helps.

i will tell you just one of the things... there are many. Pro uses standard POE so you can plug it into your POE Switch. the non-Pro you need the brick it is shipped with.

You do not have to use the same brand NVR but it is recommended. You do not need a POE switch to power these cameras, you can power it using 12V. You would need a STANDARD switch at the least though.

the camera runs at 100Mbs.... So you'll want at least a 10/100 switch. If you are doing POE, it'd need POE on it as well.

No. This is for supplying power and data to a POE device. I use it for POE cameras.

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

Yes. I am using it to push POE to an Ubiquity access point. However, POE is not enabled by default. You have to log into the switch management software and enable POE on whatever port your device is plugged in to.

Unfortunately I cannot answer your question; I purchased 3 of these units to run over POE and was never able to get them to work. They were shorted to ground inside the case so if you mounted them on anything that was grounded. (A metal Building) they would not power up. I spoke with tech support and then helped me check a few things and then determined that it was our network hardware. I would disagree with them because we are running 2 other IP POE cameras and 8 POE phones off the same switch and everything else we have works fine.

This Poe switch is "passive: type not the tradition PoE you find on most Cisco, Netgear, HP and typical big name products. so if your WAP need "passive" PoE this should work.

The NVR has four POE ports on the back and a standard ethernet port. I am not using any of the built in POE ports. I have mine connected to my company network through the standard ethernet port and use remote poe switches for all of my cameras. One of my remote switches is about 200 feet away and it works fine. I am not totally sure about the maximum distance for ethernet but if it is &gt; 500 feet you will be fine.

Here is a POE solution.. "PoE Injector/Splitter" I just ordered 2, seems to have good reviews, if it works then no need to worry about getting cameras with POE anymore...And it is really inexpensive... Under $7 Prime! Item: B00DZLSRJC http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DZLSRJC/
