LAN cable to this PoE switch to obtain power. The power adapter is unnecessary when
Internet camera is connected to a PoE switch.

operate.
1. Only use the power adapter supplied with Internet camera ; otherwise, the product
may be damaged.
2. The power adapter is unnecessary when Internet camera is connected to a PoE
switch. Otherwise, the product may be damaged when Internet camera is
connected to a PoE switch and power adapter simultaneously.
3. PoE (Power over Ethernet)
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that integrates power into a standard LAN
infrastructure. It enables power to be provided to the network device, such as an IP phone or
a network camera, using the same cable as that used for network connection. It eliminates
the need for power outlets at the camera locations and enables easier application of
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to ensure 24 hours a day, 7 days a week operation.
