Dual video out - network and analog

Recommended Posts

I have several channel vision dome ip cameras. They have both a network connection which accepts poe, and an analog out, which can feed the video to an analog dvr. Right now I have the camera connected to a cisco poe switch and it is working fine. I would also like to connect it to an analog dvr. The camera is currently being powered by poe. Does anyone know if I need to power the camera differently if I connect the analog video out along with the network out, or will the poe power work? Thanks.

You don't need to power it separately.

 

Some IP cams that have analog outputs, though, the analog is there for use during setup only, and shuts off after a few minutes, and/or has other display elements like focus aids/meters.

Thanks Matt. I'm pretty sure the Channelvision cams always output to analog too.
