Instead of using the power supply, can I use a POE switch and the DC-DC converter on the other end to power a FOSCAM 5V2A?

Yes you can. Here is what I use with a 100' Cat5e to run mine. WS-POE-5v-kit 5 volt power extension for Foscam or any 5 volt camera, via Power over Ethernet, up to 328 ft.

Ron That's what I did to my 2 cameras. Since then they have worked perfectly no issues. I did protect the connections with a piece of pipe, a fitting and some caulk.

The switch uses the included power supply to do 24 or 48 volt PoE natively. Any port can be set to 24/48v Poe, but I believe there's a maximum overall current draw rating.

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.

Yes, I bought it as a replacement for my surveillance Foscam. A power surge fried the original power adapter.. this one has worked well for months now.

The Cisco switch will provide an IP address to the AP, but it will NOT power it. The POE adaptor supplied with the Unifi AP must be used to power that device.

It does not come with power adapter but it's Power Over Ethernet so who need it anyway. POE is much better for long distance installation, I can run as many cameras as I want with only one Ethernet wire but conjunction with a POE switch those. I hope my answer with help you to decide what to buy.

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.

No, you do not have to use the power supply but PoE adapters and switches are more expensive.

The console needs 5vdc and the cams use 12vdc. You would have to build power. No clue about mac use.

If I understand your question correctly, no. I tried using a Cisco PoE switch, then this splitter at the IP camera end. It does not power the camera, Cisco business tech support said it won't. The PoE switch "looks" for a device response before turning on the Power. This pair of splitters let you add power on one end of your Cat5 cable then split it off on the other end. Make note of power loss over distance. You'll likely only be able to run under 100 feet.

Yes you need to have a POE device, you don't have to buy a new router/switch though. You can buy an injector such as this one http://amzn.com/B001PS9E5I. I did a measurement on the load of this device and with everything hooked up it draws about 4.5 watts and with the LEDs enabled it bumps up to 5.5 watts. This is your best low cost choice. If you want, there is also a barrel power connector pig tailed onto the camera. But it doesn't come with a power supply and I don't really know what the power requirements are. You would have to buy the power supply after finding one that works.

The standard for the PoE is 350ma. I used the PoE on all of mine. It is this camera - http://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/ipc-hfw3200s-218.html Perhaps more information there. It seems to indicate a standard 12v power supply to me. There is email contact information on the site for questions - E-mail: overseas@dahuatech.com

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.

This does not come with a power supply. It has the DC connector on it which is standard for CCTV.

Trendnet makes a POE injector as you know. They also make a four port switch that allows you to power multiple cameras. You can also plug in ordinary network devices to their 4 port switch. A 3rd alternative is to purchase 12 volt DC adapter and supply power directly to the camera through the power input socket in the back of the camera. The camera manual has the specs for the power plug. You can purchase both a 12V adapter and the plug at Radio Shack. If the power adapter does not come with the proper plug or you already have a 12V DC power supply, you will need purchase and solder a new plug on to it.

They sell models with different voltages. Keep searching WiFi-Soft LLC store. I see that they have 24V and 48V versions. Most cameras will regulate the voltage but to be sure verify with the camera mfg. Some POE cameras can take POE power AND 12VDC power. This gives you the option to use standard Ethernet and a separate 12VDC power supply.

I can't find any evidence that this camera supports Power Over Ethernet. ADC-V721W is a PoE device.
