D) Connecting an IP Camera to a PC
allows an old power line to be used to connect a modern, PoE-supplied IP
camera including audio/video and switch functions. A standard PoE switch/router or the
compact MX-NPA-PoE set including crossover function (as shown here in the example)
is used for the PoE power supply. A patch cable (at least Cat5) is used to connect the PC,
which serves to control the camera, directly to the PoE switch.
