Can this camera be powered by P.O.E.? What would it take to do so?

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/

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.

You need to use the DC power adapter. The camera does not have its own internal battery.

Camera Units are operated on low voltage power supply plugged directly into regular outlet. Long, Very thin power cord can fit under windows etc.

Go to Radio Shack, or simply take a power supply unit that comes with most camera's and just use the power side of the wire that connects to a standard camera. Problem solved : ) Dan

No it cannot be powered via USB, the USB is only used to transfer data from the Camcorder.

This camera only has the standard video and power connectors. It needs to be connected to a DVR and power supply.

Yes. And if your camera has the setting, make sure you set it to "uncontrolled" PoE; some PoE devices can talk with each other and adjust power, but this doesn't.

The video should be fine. But you may need a power source closer to the camera.

1: Can't answer fridge question. My guess is No. 2: Camera derives "power" from HomePlug Powerline Adapter. No charging.

No. There is no external power source input to this camera. You have to keep the batteries charged. Odd they left that out.

I don't have the outside camera. I have a wireless indoor Foscam camera that I use through my router. It does have to be able to be plugged into electricity. Sorry I cannot answer the question about the outdoor Foscam.

I'm sorry Bonnie, but for some reason my message to you got cut off so here is the most important part for you. I also use it for home surveillance. The short answer to your question is NO! you cannot connect an external power supply to these cameras. Hope this was of some help. Pete

This camera is small, but would have to be modified to work in this situation. It has a mounting bracket that is made to be screwed down to a surface, like wood or plastic. This camera requires a constant 12v power source, and you would have to build/buy a 12v battery pack. I would recommend another product for a camera that is worn...they make security cameras that are hidden inside buttons, eye glasses, hats, etc.

It must be plugged in with the included power supply (wall-wart) -- it cannot receive power over ethernet like some cameras, and there is no internal battery option.

Yes but you would need to feed ethernet from the Powerline Adapter into a PoE power injector then to the camera as the Powerline adapter does not provide PoE capability. Alternately, you can feed power to the camera with a regular power adapter plugged into the camera's standard power port.

This camera requires 12volt 1amp power supply Please visit the following link to purchase it: http://www.amazon.com/GW-Security-12-Volt-Adapter-Surveillance/dp/B005AXLI58/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1402003957&sr=1-2&keywords=gw12v1a

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.
