DIY PoE injector - ?12v/24v/48v

[michaelsandy]

Hi Guys, thanks again for the support.
Am pleased to advise of success via a 48v power supply, via a clunky connection to the dangling brown and blue wires as pictured above.
Whilst acknowledging the sensibility of the splitter suggestion above, as the cams are screwed in, accessibility to their 12v pigtails is unknown...and, thinking like my fellow Aussies, why buy something when you can make it yourself?

I'll grant that this kiwi (me) has been guilty of very dodgy wiring.... but I kind-of draw the line at something which would be on 24/7 for a purpose like security.
Just my 2cents mate.

Now I'm here with popcorn for the next comments...

This is only temporary...
Just to force a tftp firmware update on a very non-standard domain.
Don't Kiwis have a culture of 'making do'?

Making do and forgetting about correcting it later, yup!

It has separate 12v inputs, if not running via PoE...

OK, noted....

... accessibility to their 12v pigtails is unknown...

So now we find that out....

That little tidbit of info belongs at the beginning......goes back to my first post ".... I'd consider running the cam on a 802.3af/at-complaint POE injector or POE switch and use the cam's RJ-45 for POE and data input."

Glad you FINALLY are up and running.....best of luck!
