Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE Conforming to IEEE 802.3af)
All M15 models are supplied with power using the PoE standard. The PoE Adapter Set
(MX-NPA-PoE-Set) may be used for smaller installations, or the weatherproof PoE injector
MX-NPA-Box (MX-OPT-NPA1-EXT) may be used in outdoor scenarios. For larger installa
-
tions, we recommend investing in a PoE-capable supply device available on the market.
Section 2.7
contains more information on the possible combinations of connecting the
M15 and power supply options.
The maximum length of the network cable for power supply over an Ethernet cable is
100m. The Mx2wire+ media converter set (available as an accessory) can be used to
extend the range of an Ethernet connection up to 500m in length (maximum transmission
speed for a 500-m cable: 45Mbps and 12W for the PoE device).
Note
The MOBOTIX M15 can be powered by switches or routers that support the PoE
(Power-over-Ethernet) standard and conform to IEEE 802.3af.
Advantages of PoE power supply:
• Centralized backup power supply available via network
• Lower, more cost-eective power consumption
• Camera does not require an additional network connection
The M15 supports Power-
over-Ethernet according
to IEEE 802.3af (PoE)
