Could we use it in outdoor APPS to connect switch o ip camera and how much max length could support (POE) ? if not could you advise me one .

I use this cable for quiet a few long runs around my business. A few from 300 ft to 350 ft and I have one pushing 390 ft. All of these runs are outside between buildings. However they are all underground in conduit. I get good speed but I don't use poe so I don't know that part. I think I'd use conduit outside

I would not use this type of cable outside for a long run especially if exposed to elements. It's not rated for that.

I would search for an outdoor rated wire. I wouldnt consider this to be an outdoor cable unless you are running it in a conduit. For your POE question that is better answered by your power source then factor in the frequency of the cable. Here is a calculator to help. http://beyond-wifi.com/poe/poe-calc.html

Unless you are using just one camera, a POE switch is nice. It provides camera power through the network cable. I'm using http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-8-Port-100Mbps-Switch-TPE-S44/dp/B000QYEN1W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389139282&sr=8-1&keywords=trendnet+poe+switch The advantages of a POE switch are less wire clutter, and less traffic on your "Normal" home network. (4) 3.0MP cameras can generate a lot of traffic. By running the cameras to the POE switch, then my PC running Blue Iris to the switch I don't bog down my home wireless router with all the traffic.

I suspect no, but I am not certain. If you are not connected to the Internet but just want to look at your cameras from a computer which is wired to the switch using one of the non POE ports while your cameras are wired to the POE ports, it would probably work, but no guarantees. If you are connected to the Internet, I would use a router for the firewall that most routers provide.

It didn't work for me. I tried using it with a Dahua camera that I also got on Amazon. In the end what worked in that case was a TP-LINK TL-PoE150S Gigabit PoE Injector Adapter. That is 802.3af compliant as is the Dahua camera. If your camera supports 802.3af I would go with that.

I have one Aircam hooked up at 90+ meters from the poe, using Cat6 cable, it has been working since September 2012, no problems whatsoever

Sorry for the delay in answering you...things have been a bit off track because of the long Holiday weekend Here is the answer from our technical people. You need 1 unit for 4 cameras. PoE provides Power and Data for camera up to 300 feet. Hope that helps, John Duncan 1-888-445-8375

Yes you can. Here is what I use with a 100' Cat5e to run mine. WS-POE-5v-kit 5 volt power extension for Foscam or any 5 volt camera, via Power over Ethernet, up to 328 ft.

Sorry I clicked the wrong button. The answer is NO. You would only need the POE switch. I am using this camera with the $40 TP link POE switch for a few days and so far is working well.

Yes, but not using the conventional, ratified IEEE protocol. This camera pack comes with an injector for each camera, which has to be powered individually. Ubiquiti also sells their ToughSwitch PoE, which is a 5 port gigabit PoE switch. I didn't purchase it but I did use the injectors, which work fine. A little annoying when I have a perfectly good IEEE 802.3af compliant switch.

look for other. works well in open space with no other electrical interference. we use this to power and connect to ip cameras. good for poe up to 200ft, approx.

the camera runs at 100Mbs.... So you'll want at least a 10/100 switch. If you are doing POE, it'd need POE on it as well.

Also, check your devices. Just because you connect them to a gigabit switch doesn't make them gigabit. I have not seen a camera that has a gigabit connection so POE or not, they will connect at 100Mbit. Considering that a 3MP camera operates at about 8Mbit per second, you will never see any issues related to the camera port being 100Mbit.

These are not outdoor rated. It is physically possible to put it outdoors, but I wouldn't expect it to last long! If you are looking for a good outdoor camera in a similar price range and POE check out the Ubiquiti line of cameras.

You will have problems operating this camera at a distance of 200 yards. The Ethernet standard states that the maximum distance between wired devices is 100 meters (roughly 328 feet or 109 yards). If you want to make the run work using Cat 6 Ethernet cable, you should be able to place one or two network switches every 75-100 yards along the route, but of course that could present some waterproofing problems for you. Another option is to buy two fiber optic converters and a long pre-made direct burial fiber cable, preferably 50 micron multi-mode. You could then use a fiber optic converter at each end (such as this one http://www.amazon.com/Gigabit-Ethernet-Fiber-Media-Converter/dp/B004FUUY52/ ) to directly connect the camera to your network. Another option is to set up a long-range wireless connection if you have a clear direct line of sight between the two locations. At 200 yards you will probably be out of range of most wireless access points. There is a chance that some (such as this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006M1PKWY/ ) might work up to 500 feet away (possibly 200 yards if you are very lucky) from the camera. Some of those wireless access points (including the one mentioned) can be set up in "bridge mode", which essentially means that you will need one of those devices near your computer, and another near the camera - the two devices can set up an extremely long range wireless signal, as long as there is a clear line of sight between the two devices.

Yes you can. But use a switch, not a router on the far end. Assuming you have a router/gateway on the sending side. I have 6 pc's and 12 ip cameras running off the far end of one of these, no issues. Cams are on a separate vlan and work great.

Used mine for analog cameras one at the camera and one at the DVR (bnc) & wall wart (power). The IP cameras are connected to a PoE switch for power and data transfer over CAT5.

Thanks for checking with us. First, we would like to emphasize that the most typical installation would not have any holes through the wall, as the camera would be used wireless (Wifi) and power would be provided by the included AC adapter plugged into an outdoor power outlet that is within 10 - 12 ft of the camera location, with a weatherproof cover for your AC outlet. So in this most common scenario, everything is outside, with no holes drilled in the wall and nothing inside. Next, if you choose to keep the AC adapter inside, you'd need only a really tiny hole to feed the very thin AC adapter wire through the hole. Another possibility is to skip the AC adapter and use a Cat5e wire and power the camera using PoE (power over Ethernet), if you have a PoE injector such as the $30 Dlink DWL-P200 or similar. In this case, the size of the hole for the wire depends on whether you are using Cat5e wire with connectors already on it, in which case the hole has to be big enough to accommodate the connector, or if you will add your own network connector to the Cat5e wire, in which case the hole just has to accommodate the network cable, which can be very thin depending on what type you get, for example 1 / 4". Finally, there is a fourth method that you can choose for mounting, and that is with the camera outside and the connection box inside, and in that case the hole would need to be 3 / 4" in order to accommodate the connector for the cable from the camera to the connection box. Again we would like to emphasize that you can choose your mounting method based on your requirements, and by far the most common way to use the camera would require no drilling through the wall at all. All these comments and answers also apply to our less expensive SCNC3805 model, which has 1280 x 720 resolution and is otherwise identical to this camera.
