POE powered splitter?

[gilkman]

Anybody have experience with this? Amazon.com: IPCamPower POE Powered 2 Port Switch & Network Cat5 Cat6 Midspan Cable Range Extender Passthrough Repeater for IP Cameras: Computers & Accessories

I want to add an extra Hikvision POE powered dome next to an existing one and I have on POE cable to work with...any issues?

I've heard they work great. I have a 4 port one but haven't used it yet

My home is all brick so I didn't want to start drilling a lot of holes to run Ethernet cables.

I use several of these to run pairs of Hikvision cameras.

But, I use a POE+ power injector to ensure that they don't starve for power.

I have the 1 to 4, bought for a customer install. POE+ powering it, and tested perfect with 3 cams running IR.

Can I run a Cat 6 from NVR on second floor to first floor, then use the POE switch/splitter, to power 4 IPC's? IS there a POE splitter you recommend? I was going to store the POE splitter in the first floor attic area. Any suggestions?

Hi Matrix1,

I recommend doing what you can to pull the wiring, it will be more reliable.

If you find you can not do this, then definitely try a PoE switch or the PoE extender nbstl68 noted above
