2. PoE (Power Over Ethernet)
802.3af PoE Switch is recommended
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.
