2.2 Overview Of Network Connection
2.2.1 Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE Conforming To IEEE 802.3af)
All D15D models are supplied with power using the PoE standard. The PoE Adapter Set
(MX-NPA-PoE-Set) may be used for smaller installations. For larger installations, we recom-
mend investing in a PoE-capable supply device available on the market. For detailed
information on power supply options and on connecting the D15D camera, please see
Section 2.7.1, «Notes On Cable Lengths And Power Supply» and the following sections.
Caution
The
maximum length
of the network cable for power supply over an Ethernet cable
is
100 m
.
Previous MOBOTIX network power accessories
such as the NPA-Set, Power-Box
and Power-Rack (MX-NPA-Set, MX-NPR-4 and MX-NPR8/20) are
not
suitable for
use with the D15D.
Note
The MOBOTIX D15D can also be powered by switches or routers that support the
PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) standard and conform to IEEE 802.3af.
Advantages of PoE power supply:
• Centralized backup power supply available via network
• Lower, more cost-effective power consumption
• Camera does not require an additional network connection
The D15D supports
