Power Over Ethernet

[Deleted User] · 2021-08-03 16:55:21

Hello All, I am trying to set up a home security system and have some POE Wireless IP cameras and I want to use POE. My modem/router does not support this but I was wondering if I bought a POE router like Netgear or something will this supply the power to POE any device plugged into it? or do I need a new modem? Any advice…

just be 100% sure the switch has the correct PoE output/version. (check PoE specs on camera and make sure the switch supports it)
