Powering Axis Network Cameras with Power over LAN™

Main Messaging

Network video from anywhere without the need for power outlets!

What is Power over LAN?

Technology for combining Power & Data over standard LAN cabling infrastructure

Safe, reliable way to save installation costs

Standard solution – IEEE 802.3af compliant

300ft (100m) range

Also known as:PoL

Power over Ethernet - PoE

Inline PowerActive Ethernet

What is Power over LAN?

Power (48V, 15.4W) is only activated for authenticated

compatible terminals.

Compatible with standard Category 5 cabling

infrastructure – no need to replace cables, patch-panels,

RJ-45 outlets, etc.

Safe solution – Power is automatically blocked to legacy

Ethernet devices (i.e. laptops, NICs, switches, etc.)

Systems are protected against overloads and short-

circuits

Simpler, more Cost effective Installation

Removal of the AC outlets dramatically reduces cost of the deployment.

No need for expensive electricians, deployment by IT personnel.

No adaptors – higher reliability of installation

Fast installation time and integration of cameras

Simplified site planning, enabling easy addition or relocation of a camera to get complete coverage.

The Power over LAN Advantage for Network Cameras

A Robust Security Network – a Must

Only a port with POL enabled devices will be powered

Will not damage non-POL devices such as NIC Cards, LAN Hubs and other peripherals

Eliminates accidental disconnection of Power to camera

Better survivability in the tough industrial floor

Can allow closing of the camera in an isolating box

Overload & short circuit protections

The Power over LAN Advantage for Network Cameras

A backup Security Network – a Must Continues operation during power failures by simple UPS backup

of the POL Midspan.
