Powerline and POE injector built into one?

[worlando]

I thought I saw a link here on one but for the life of me I can't find it now. I know there is a UK one but... My buddy bought an ebay brand but I'd rather avoid ebay. Newegg searching provided little. Sucks when you search for Powerline adapter you get one set of results. POE and Powerline you get another with none being what I want!

This comes up from time to time. To the best of my recollection last time it came up there was a product but it was over a hundred bucks, which really is too much for this.

I believe this is the unit. http://www.asokatech.com/plug-link/pluglink-pl9660-poe.html
As littlebrother points out, the price is high and you are better of paying someone to run cable in most instances...
You can also use a regular powerline adapter, with a power pass though like this http://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-Power...1436893936&sr=8-12&keywords=powerline+adapter
and plug in an injector and use a short 6 inch patch cable

I believe the 59 is only for the receiving adapter...you still need the adapter connected to your network.

Even cheaper on amazon!

The amazon unit is not the POE version

Doh! Your right.

 

[worlando]

And your right needing two:

Remember, you will need at least two devices to form a HomePlug connection. One PlugLink PoE-200 (this Item) and the other is PL9670-Q2 PLC DUAL PORT HD Powerline 500Mbps Network Adapter HDTV Gaming Console PC IP Cam (connected to the router)
More devices can be added to further share your network.

What kind of run are you using this for? if its simple, run a cable...

 

[worlando]

I'm looking at more of convenience and time. It's hot as can be in FL now! I barely feel like cutting the grass let alone attic crawling!

That aside, 175'.

Give it a shot..make sure you buy from a place that allows returns..powerline doesnt always work..

dunno about where you live, but around here $100-150 is the most it would cost to get a single ethernet cable pulled by a professional.. not much more than you'll end up paying for powerline poe adapters.

you might get a quote from an installer before investing in those.

 

[worlando]

True, but paying someone $150 for something I can do myself later is just hard for me. This is a Band-Aid fix anyway. I bought the Netgear Powerline last night for $59 at Staples. Plus I bought 3 single POE injectors for $1 each at a garage sale. They were new in the box!

 

[worlando]

Well Powerline is out! Best I could get was TX 70MPS and RX was 15MBS! Hurts having a house built in 1949!

 

[nayr]

Should be fine considering most IP Cameras are not even capable of saturating a 10Mbps link (individually) and nearly all the traffic will be TX..

Nobody said you'd get full ethernet speeds with power line, but typically they provide ample throughput for IPCameras.
