How would I hook up this mic to my camera?

Connect power coming from the power brick to the one side of the white connector by it's self.
Then on the other side of the white connector, twist the power leads from the camera and the Speco together, and insert into the other end of the white connector. There are screws in the white connector that you tighten to hold the wires in place.

Then use the male plug on the opposite end of the speco to power the mic.

Is there such a thing as a POE splitter with 24 volt output receptacle? Guess I am apprehensive dealing with the wires like that..

Is this what you mean? I assume there is two more openings on the other side?

Yes that should be correct. Out of curiosity how long is the cable run?

Yes sir, exactly like that. Use no less than a 16 guage wire from power brick.

Well with the cat 6 I have a 50 foot run. I think I could probably do less than that for power but maybe 50 feet would be safer. I wouldn't think wire would cost all that much? I would probably want to have the wires inside where they are spliced together with the brick. Then it will come outside where it hooks into the specco

This would work for extending power cord? https://www.amazon.com/Southwire-55...ywords=14+gauge+2+conductor+wire+outdoor&th=1

Yeah, that's a bit pricey.

I might check at the local hardware store as well.

I just had this idea what do you guys think. Buying this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019Q3U72M/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=ILOANTJ120KBS&colid=1IEIIDO11PIA4 and https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072KSYG72/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I1JFWZOZ1G5TJJ&colid=1IEIIDO11PIA4 To power the microphone and just leave the camera as a POE powered camera? Plus it comes with a junction box that would probably work.

 

[looney2ns]

Certainly that would work.

 

[Kamakzie]

Certainly that would work.

Okay that stuff is coming tomorrow. Will let you know how it turns out.

Big thumbs up as this worked. I now have sound. Gotta get the mic in a place where the wind won't effect it as bad. I also stole a muff off from my old headset to try and muffle the wind.
