PoE (Power over Ethernet) Support

Power over Ethernet uses single Ethernet cable to transmit both power and data.

For PoE to work, the electrical current must go into the data cable at the power-supply end, and come out at the device end, in such a way, as shown below, that the current is kept separate from the data signal so that neither interferes with the other. The current enters the cable by means of a component called an injector.

As the NETWORK IP CAMERA 550710 and NETWORK VIDEO SERVER 550000 are PoE compatible, then they will function properly without modification when connected to PoE injector directly using standard LAN cable as shown below.

NOTE

As the embedded PoE modules of NETWORK IP CAMERA 550710 and NETWORK VIDEO SERVER 550000 are slightly different from IEEE 802.3af standard, use recommended PoE injector only. (Ask to where you bought 550710 or 550000)

Some of PoE switches in the market are not compatible with NETWORK IP CAMERA 550710 and NETWORK VIDEO SERVER 550000, although connecting to that switches does not cause damage to both ends.
