I have a camera to attach but would also like to have only switch for everything. Can I use this if the rest of the things don't need POE?

Four ports are 10/100 only (no poe) and would act like a normal switch. The other four ports are poe which will power cameras, wireless AP, ect. Normal hookup would be to plug a camera into poe port, then plug router into the non-poe port (10/100). You can also use the other non-poe ports for other devices that do not require power over ethernet.

PoE switches automatically sense the need for power. Either use the (4) ports that are not PoE (first), or just let the device decide. This unit only has 4 PoE ports out of the 8 total.

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.

If you are talking about the poe interfaces then each interface is switchable from the web admin page but it may require a reboot of the. Switch and I have not personally tested this process

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.

any device that needs power and not plugged into the wall electrical or a POE switch will need its own. this injects power onto one ethernet cable to one device. the NVR that you plug your IP cameras into is probably a PoE switch and therefor you are covered.Also PoE switch is less expensive compared to several of these injectors and a cleaner install also with less wires and less electrical plugs. there is a 16 port switch with 8 being PoE that is less than 8 injectors plus a 16 port switch.

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.

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.

No. This is for supplying power and data to a POE device. I use it for POE cameras.

You can use an external POE(Power over Ethernet) setup to power the camera from wherever you have the Ethernet running from. D-Link DWL-P200 Power Over Ethernet Adapter

Yes, every Ubiquiti device that I purchase from Amazon had an individual POE injector with it. Please note that Ubiquiti uses a different voltage then other common POE manufactures. I tried to used this camera with a Netgear POE switch, but it didn't work. I had to use the enclosed POE injector.

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.....

Yes, but not using the conventional, ratified IEEE protocol. This camera pack comes with an injector for each camera, which has to be powered individually. Ubiquiti also sells their ToughSwitch PoE, which is a 5 port gigabit PoE switch. I didn't purchase it but I did use the injectors, which work fine. A little annoying when I have a perfectly good IEEE 802.3af compliant switch.

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!

Yes, you can hook this camera up to a POE NVR, choose Synology NVR, best in it's class

POE is not built into this Foscam model but Foscam offers a couple of different adapters such as this one...http://foscam.us/accessories/active-poe-splitter.html

Yes. Each device comes with a PoE adapter that can be plugged into a standard outlet. The adapter is a way for you to provide PoE to the device without a PoE switch.

Yes, this unit is PoE. That's the only way it works. If you don't have a PoE switch, it has an adapter for you. If you can get a chance to read a PDF manual all the details are stated there.
