Will this camera work with a DVR with PoE and will I need the PoE injector?

If you have only one camera then you need one PoE injector. But if you have more than one camera then one plug in injector is not enough. Get multiple plug in holes for about $50. No need to use DVR.

If your DVR provides 48V on the ethernet port you plug this camera in to, you'll be OK. Otherwise you'll need a PoE injector.

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.

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

Cameras that accept power over ethernet connect to POE. I would make sure the camera you are using is POE before connecting. The LAN side plugs into a switch or router.

I have one Aircam hooked up at 90+ meters from the poe, using Cat6 cable, it has been working since September 2012, no problems whatsoever

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.

I haven't installed mine but I don't think it supports PoE, this is the website with the specifications http://foscam.us/foscam-fi8906w-outdoor-wireless-ip-camera-139.html

That should work fine. Have you considered the higher resolution camera. Just make sure you have a Power Over Ethernet router or use the POE from the DVR. I have three cameras connect through a wireless bridge. That works great.

yes, I have that POE injector powering several different POE cameras including this one.

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 TP-LINK TL-PoE150S Gigabit PoE Injector Adapter, IEEE 802.3af compliant, Up to 100 meters (328 Feet) 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.

Yes. The unit has an 8 port switch built in for connecting the 8 cameras. Each port provides POE power to the connected camera.

Larry L., I am almost sure you cannot. Being this is an IP switch, each device is going to get an IP address. Also, if you are using PoE, Not sure how this would work. THEORETICALLY (and I am stretching my knowledge-base), you ca have another switch at the far end and have the cameras plugged into that. But I believe there is a 1:1 relatioship for PoE port to Cameras... I'll be interested in finding out if it does work though!

This uses EnGenius proprietary POE. It comes with the necessary power injector to make this happen though.

I am not aware of powerline ethernet adapters having Poe power on the output. So you'll need a 12volt 1amp power supply or a Poe injector. FYI the 12v1a power supply you'll need will come with most injectors. You just won't plug into the injector. You'll plug into the camera directly if you choose to not use an injector. I'd buy a trendnet injector. Plug the LAN cable coming out of the powerline adapter into the input on the injector. Then use a ethernet cable from the output to the camera. The power supply will plug into the injector. FYI the powerline will plug into the wall and so will the Poe injectors power.

Your IP cam needs to be able to handle multiple POE voltages. The poe injector does not do it by itself.

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.

No, it's a POE injector, you plug in a cable on the LAN side from a switch and then plug in your device on the POE side, it basically just adds voltage to a switch that isn't POE. It's been running fine for me I use it with a home router and run 3 cameras right now. Once I get more cameras I will probably get an actual POE switch.
