Adding new POE camera to existing system

[Casper01 0]

I have a bit of a scenario I'm trying to resolve. Years ago I installed several geovision cameras in a building while it was being constructed. The owner is now asking to add another camera at the front of the building, actually near to where an existing camera is. When I ran the cable previously, the building was just a skeleton, now everything is sealed, drywalled (with decorative covering), and impossible to access to pull another cable without creating an access hole(s) and causing damage. There is also no nearby power sources. Nothing but this poe cable.

 

That I'm wondering is if there is a way I can utilize that existing network cable to provide power and network to both cameras.

 

Thanks

 

edit: actually just seen the vivotek AP-FXC-0210 extender, that might be the ticket.

why not just install a poe switch at front of building? That way you are ready if owner requests another camera in the future
