tekkie 0 Posted May 24, 2013 The way I look at it cameras are mostly 100 Mbps Which camera ? Lorex cameras, haven't you been paying attention, it's the title of the post BTW, in checking the specs, the camera uses 7W, so if you put 8 of these on that 8 port PoE injector it may not work, maybe limit it to 6 of these cameras. While yes, you have 7W per port, that's at the port, with power loss over the Ethernet cable, it will be likely be 6W available to the camera. Since it will work with 5W without IR, you can always do that and force them in day mode. Yeah i noticed that, for now i only have 4 and i doubt i will go pass 6 anytime in the near future... If i do by then i will have a full poe switch anyway or worst case buy 2 injectors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, 100Mbps port, that is what we are discussing, gige switches with injectors because gige (1,000Mbps) PoE switches are overpriced at the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
