    Powering IPC-SD22204UE-GN-W wireless PTZ camera

    Thank you all. Ordered one, now I just need to figure out where to mount the camera. Probably wait for warmer weather before running wires, so I have a few months to figure out placement.

    Powering IPC-SD22204UE-GN-W wireless PTZ camera

    By the way, I found a netgear 12volt 1amp power adapter and the camera does boot up and I setup the username/password. And plugged an old SVC camera into the cable and POE switch to make sure they both worked.

    Powering IPC-SD22204UE-GN-W wireless PTZ camera

    Okay, I tried to different POE switches and cables. No joy, the POE lights never come on and after 10 minutes still no connectivity. So back to the original question, any recommendations for POE power splitter. I looked on amazon and found a few but the reviews aren't great. Thanks again.

    What brand name variety of cameras should I have for commercial selling demonstration purposes?

    I think you'll find that even cheap cameras have decent performance in day light situations, it's low light and back light scenes they will struggle with and perhaps motion even in good lighting. The trick is to demonstrate that in real time.

    AddToBIDB failed 121?
