A FURTHER INFORMATION
A.1 Components Of A MOBOTIX System
We will introduce the individual components of your MOBOTIX system in this section. You will
also find hints about additional information about products found on the MOBOTIX website.
A.1.1 Power Supply
The Ethernet cable supplies the MOBOTIX cameras with power. You can use either MOBOTIX
PoE products or switches with PoE power supply in accordance with IEEE 802.3af .
MOBOTIX NPA-PoE-Set (MX-NPA-PoE-SET)
This set powers the MOBOTIX cameras or other PoE devices via the network cable. The
integrated cross-over feature of the adapter allows connecting the camera directly to a
computer without using a switch. The integrated LED signals the proper functioning of the
power supply as well as the power supply’s PoE class currently available.

Switches With PoE Power Supply
When purchasing switches with PoE power supply in accordance with
IEEE 802.3af
, make
sure that the required number of ports is supported (in certain units, only some of the
ports are equipped with PoE power supply).
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) consists of a rechargeable battery and electronic
components. These components ensure that the battery is correctly charged and prevent
the connected units from being damaged as a result of voltage peaks and lows. If an
electrical surge occurs, the voltage peaks are filtered out and in the event of low voltage,
the UPS takes over the power supply of the connected units for as long as the power
stored in the battery lasts.
We recommend safeguarding the network components of your MOBOTIX system (camera
power supply, switches, routers and even file servers) using UPS units as they can ensure that
your system will continue to operate properly, even in the case of a complete power failure.
A.1.2 Switch
A switch connects individual network-ready units to one another and delivers data from
the sending units to the receiving units. In larger networks, one or more switches form the
backbone of the system over which the data is transferred to the individual computers
and/or network devices. In a smaller network, this function is normally performed by a
router with multiple network ports (for example, in a home network).
