Ethernet Splitter, Waterproof PoE Combiner Splitter Adapter, Run 2 IP Cameras on 1 Network Cable

I am in the middle of attempting to add another camera and realized that I don't have the ability to run another cat6 cable from the network termination point. I did have a POE camera nearby and thought to myself that there HAS to be a way to split the cable and after some research, this happened. I'm very happy about it. I tested it out and no performance issue between the 2 cameras. the construction is kind of drab and boring, but who cares? it's going to sit in the network closet and it's not meant to be some statement piece so I can't be bothered to care about its looks. it works. That's all you need to know.

Make sure to note the connector (plug/socket) on the existing wiring and the new cable or device you plan to use them with. The splitters are available in every combination of plug -> socket, so it is easy to get the right one. It's just as easy to overlook and end up with a solution that won't work. Works great with all of my client's PoE cameras and 802.11af/at PoE switch (Nortel/Avaya 4850GTS-PWR, among others). YMMV for non-standard 12/24/48V PoE injectors or switches. These things are -all- totally basic. There is no magic in one that is not in another, so don't pay for others asking $15, $20 each — they are ALL THE SAME. We purchased a couple of Amazon Warehouse items returned by another customer... doubtless because "it didn't work" for them.

These do NOT provide POE. They might work for just data, but they do not carry the power to your cameras. If you have a separate power source (like a wall art) for each camera, these might work for you.

Very good product for splitting 2 cameras with one cable but bad stuff that would not work very well with all kind of cables for l9bger distance because of wasted signal after splitting. So for that only 4 estrella

This works well, I got these because the customer wanted to change and add cameras further than the cable was located. This version is all female at the camera end and does not require an additional coupler when making cables longer.

Did not work as needed as only one monitor able to process through cable.

I was pretty skeptical about this splitter. How can you run two POE camera signals through a single cat 5 cable? As I found out after some testing that at least for the Lorex system and cameras I have, one camera is utilizing only 4 of the 8 available wires for both Ethernet signal and POE. Specifically, orange stripe, orange, green stripe and green, or connectors 1,2,3,6, leaving the other 4 wires to be used for the second camera and POE port on your recorder. Remember if you play with this stuff that POE is up to 50v dc, plenty enough for a potentially dangerous shock! This set of splitters is a great value though if you already ran a length of cat 5 but want that second camera.

Working good
