Do i need to buy anything else to power the camera? POE means I just plug in ethernet cable from my router, right?

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.

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.

You need to either have a POE switch or a local 12v power adapter to power the camera. Most home routers do not have POE built in.

The Ethernet port you plug your camera into must be a (POE port) which can be on your DVR already, or you can use a POE switch which has designated ports for your cameras which will provide power for them.

You need a router that provides power over Ethernet or you can buy a Poe injector.
497775
you must have power over Ethernet (POE) switch to power up the camera. or plug in standard compatible power source to camera.
497776
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.

Negative. You need to have a pie injector or a pie switch that provides the voltage needed to power poe devices. A standard router will not power anything via Ethernet ports.

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

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.

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

Yeah. If you had a non-PoE camera you would want a splitter to split thet data from the power since you would power it with a wall wart or something besides CAT 5/6. If your switch does not provide PoE to the camera you can use a PoE injector to provide power and data to the camera and back to your DVR or whatever. Hope this helps.

It's a POE camera and by definition, yes it comes with a power adapter. It works with POE systems. POE means power over ethernet. No you can't use it with a normal home router and a separate power source with the equipment provided. Mounting bracket is included.

Hardwire , all wireless camera's. Because, if you are in a wireless environment that has muliple AP, it will drop in and out. Also, buy hardwiring, you could go with a POE camera and switch, with one cable.... Last thing, make sure when using POE, that both the camera and switch voltage is the same 48v I have come across cameras that use 24v and 24v only switches. And that was my two cents.....

You need to make an Ethernet coonection to marry the camera to the wifi system. After they connect, you can disconnect. Some of the newest cameras from this line can power from the Ethernet connection.

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

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.

This camera has an Ethernet connector. It also has a small power supply that needs 110vac.

So you plug the master power into your standard outlet and insert the cat 5e cable from that power source into your router. Then pretty much do the same for the camera, plug its power source into a standard outlet and plug in the ethernet cord to that and then the other end goes into the camera. Its power over the ethernet cable. Just besure to not use any extension cords or surge protectors, as it messes up tge transmission. The instructions state bothpower sources have a surge protector in them. Definitely a DIY job, nothing fancy, very straightforward. All the best! Its a great unit!!

No power supply is included, but realistically if you're wiring these up you'll want to go PoE. There are many low priced PoE Injectors that work well with this camera if you don't have a PoE capable switch.

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

These are "POE" through the Ethernet ports but there are two power adapters that connect to the DVR. They power the DVR and the cameras.

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/
