I have outdoor AC outlet near installation point. Can I use this, OR, is POE the only option, and if it is, must injector be wired to (indoor) router?

There are no jacks on the unit to supply power other than PoE. However, the unit comes with a PoE injector. You can run a fairly long cable from the unit to where ever you need to place the PoE injector. (Optional: Then run a cable from the PoE injector to the router). I have mine on a 50' mast and the PoE injector is in a garage and is then connected to a switch inside a house.

It does not need to be wired to an indoor router but I would recommend the A/C adapter be inside and run a either net cable as your power line to access point

Most Engenius (outside) devices have a proprietary PoE, which is included. All the outdoor ones have an included PoE injector that comes with the devices. Some of the new (inside) devices and use a standardized PoE, or a PoE switch.

No, not exactly. Sometimes wireless access points are installed in areas where there is no electrical outlet. The POE device allows the access point to get its power off of the network cable. You would put this POE device near your router or network switch. Hope that helps.

Only if you Router supports POE. Your router will specifically have ports labeled POE. If your router doesn't support POE, you can use an injector or add a poe router to your network.

It uses a proprietary voltage that won't work under the standard 802.3af or 802.3at. There's no choice but to use the included POE injector.

Boy that would be great! But no. It means that if you have a PoE switch or injector you can run one single Ethernet network cable to handle power and data.

This is for poe cameras, you send power and data thru the same cable, the ac for the injector may be somewhere different than the camera.

No. These cable assemblies are designed to be used with the power supply for the device you want to power. POE power is 48 volts and requires that the device you are trying to power can take the 48 volts and convert it to what it needs. The power from the device power supply is simply injected into the ethernet cable at the source end then extracted at the other end.

you need a PoE switch or power injector. Something 802.3af compliant. unless you specifically purchased a switch with PoE, most consumer routers are not 802.3af compliant.

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.

Now, powerline adapters are just for connection the network from one place to another. The POE here must be used on either a PoE capable network switch or with a PoE injector. However, the regular power plug will work on these also.

Does not accept the standard POE, you need to use a passive POE injector (like this: http://amzn.com/B00DZLSRJC)

Just need to run a cat 5 cable from your router to the AP and install the controller on your PC. No outlet needed outside because of the POE feature. Will not work as a wireless bridge from your Netgear. There are however several companies that have wireless repeaters and they work pretty well.

Assuming you are planning to use the extractor (included) and that it has the right size power connector: yes. If you have a PoE IP camera and need to inject power for it, this is not the device for you. This is passive PoE, not active, which is why it's so cheap. Also, like others have said, it won't work well over very large distances, although that can be worked around by using a different power supply that pushes a higher voltage over the line. Just be careful doing anything like that.

The AP pack comes with 3 poe injectors. We use a their smart switch with POEinstead but do have systems that are running the injectors packed in the box.We have had some trouble as late finding the APs in the software. emailtech support only. They will answer but there is much self diagnosis. Theproducts have been reliable.

Thanks for checking with us. First, we would like to emphasize that the most typical installation would not have any holes through the wall, as the camera would be used wireless (Wifi) and power would be provided by the included AC adapter plugged into an outdoor power outlet that is within 10 - 12 ft of the camera location, with a weatherproof cover for your AC outlet. So in this most common scenario, everything is outside, with no holes drilled in the wall and nothing inside. Next, if you choose to keep the AC adapter inside, you'd need only a really tiny hole to feed the very thin AC adapter wire through the hole. Another possibility is to skip the AC adapter and use a Cat5e wire and power the camera using PoE (power over Ethernet), if you have a PoE injector such as the $30 Dlink DWL-P200 or similar. In this case, the size of the hole for the wire depends on whether you are using Cat5e wire with connectors already on it, in which case the hole has to be big enough to accommodate the connector, or if you will add your own network connector to the Cat5e wire, in which case the hole just has to accommodate the network cable, which can be very thin depending on what type you get, for example 1 / 4". Finally, there is a fourth method that you can choose for mounting, and that is with the camera outside and the connection box inside, and in that case the hole would need to be 3 / 4" in order to accommodate the connector for the cable from the camera to the connection box. Again we would like to emphasize that you can choose your mounting method based on your requirements, and by far the most common way to use the camera would require no drilling through the wall at all. All these comments and answers also apply to our less expensive SCNC3805 model, which has 1280 x 720 resolution and is otherwise identical to this camera.

These are only "Passive" Unintelligent POE injectors. You are correct not a good idea for an office with normal untrained staff. You are really going to need a smart POE Switch. Or wire these to jacks that require a Keyed cord or something.
