Im running a 30w injector to a dome camera which works fine until the ir kicks on then the 30watts is not enough power.. would turning ir power down affect the cameras power consumption? Is there a more powerful injector i could use?
Thanks
 
I know the camera isnt poe but i have a splitter from sunba they specifically made for this camera.
 
So cranking the ir down did not help the power issue..

I guess i need to know can i get an injector that safely supplies more power.. and if not...

Can i run romex 12-2 uf along with cat6 thru conduit without too much interference?
Thanks everyone

it is a proper poe splitter? what is the power draw specs for the camera?
what kind of cable are you using? how long is the run?
 
This is the splitter

Not positive of the draw. Right now im jist testing with short 3 ft patch cat5.. will cat6 make a difference?
 
I have this on the way.. i know ur not a fan of sunba but as of now im pretty happy with the auto tracking model.. Do you think this splitter will make a difference?

That is not poe+...
The problem with crap cameras is their reliability...furthermore auto tracking (as it is implemented in these cheap cameras) is simply ineffective in the real world..its a gimmick.
 
Can you recommend me a splitter off amazon?


As far as the auto tracking, it does fine for me on my property..

until you have two objects it tries to track or a fast moving target, now you will miss the relevant important footage...hope you have a few fixed cameras that can actually be useful...
You need a splitter that supports 802.3at

Don't be cheap on the items that are going to be powering the camera that's just asking for trouble
