wifi adapter that can go outdoors

Recommended Posts

I want to mount a Hikvision camera outside with minimal wires and holes in the house. I know the DS-2CD2532F-IWS has wireless capability, but I want to use the more powerful IR of the DS-2CD2232-I5. So I'm looking for a wi-fi adapter that can live outdoors. I haven't been able to find one.

I found this which I think will work, but it also requires POE for power.

 

TP-LINK TL-WA5210G High Power Outdoor Wireless Access Point, 2.4GHz 54Mbps, 802.11g/b, 12dBi directional antenna, Passive POE

I also found a cisco wifi/power converter for their IP phones, but its not for outside, and i don't know if the power jacks are compatible (size/polarity) with Hikvision IP camera 12V power jack.

Check out engines for powerful, non-private band wireless options. I've installed dozens of these radios for specialized wireless applications and have never had one go offline in 110+ degree weather.
