I'm planning to use this on my home surveillance ip cams, is it going to work? Was told cat5e should work fine but just making sure. thanks in advance

I dont have mine hooked up to a visual system but it is working just fine with my routers and modems.

It will connect a cat5 ethernet to a bnc connecton. I am guessing the cat5 is what you are calling an ip connection.

It works many branded IP cameras, I have a Wansview and works okay. Best to hard wire it with CAT5 and run it through a LAN switch. I tried using it wireless (you would need to buy a chipset that would connect it wireless-Ralink), but connectivity didn't do well to my Buffalo Air Router.

No, this is for analog CCTV cameras only. It will not work with PoE or any ip cameras.

Assuming you are planning to use the extractor (included) and that it has the right size power connector: yes. If you have a PoE IP camera and need to inject power for it, this is not the device for you. This is passive PoE, not active, which is why it's so cheap. Also, like others have said, it won't work well over very large distances, although that can be worked around by using a different power supply that pushes a higher voltage over the line. Just be careful doing anything like that.

Yes it will work you have to have anAdapter Bnc to cat5 or 6 either is fine The Bnc to your camera and cat 5 adapter to your nvr

I bought the ip cam viewer app and was able to set it up see it on the same network but once I leave the network it wont work. Something about the ip address not being static but always changing. I was unsuccessful in setting up the record either since I'm not an IT guy. I think unless you really know networking it's pretty complicated for a noob like myself. There are couple of free ip camera viewers out there so check it out. I'm able to view, pan, and tilt with the one I got. Just wish I knew how to take advantage of the full potential. Sorry I couldn't have been a better help.

So far I have tested several lengths up to and including 100 feet and it worked fine. The standard CAT5E length for Ethernet of 100 meters is slightly more than 300 feet. If the user wants to wait until Monday for an answer, I think I have a spool longer than that on which I can install ends and test. Meanwhile, I would suggest using a stronger new 9-volt dry cell.

From the description "Designed to convert HDMI signal to standard TCP/IP and transmit by internet cable or LAN. With the advantage of TCP/IP standard".I would be surprised if they go all the way to M-JPEG image compression, packeting through TCP/IP and in the end not able to run through a router on the same LAN. It should even be able to run through Internet given enough bandwidth. But again I don't have thise device, so anyone actually tried can give an answer please?

You don't need a router for a CCTV camera. Only IP cameras meed a router or a switch. These plugs just let you use Cat5 (computer) cables as an extension cord. Each of these plugs have a CAT5 end and a power plug end. You connect the power plug into your camera power jack then the CAT5 end into a Cat5 cable. The other end of the cat5 cable into CAT5 end and the power jack into your camera power supply. The plugs have RJ45 ends with a split off power jacks. Make sure the power jacks are the correct size for both your camera and power supply. These plugs injects power onto the Cat5 cable. If your camera uses 12V and you are only going a short run like 25-30 feet a 12V power supply should work. The longer the cat5 run the less voltage you get on the other end. So if you use 12V and a 200 foot run you might get 5 volts at the camera end. You would have to use a larger power supply for a long run. There are sites on the web that can explain it better then I can. So I guess to answer your question Yes you can power a CCTV camera with these with the right connector. I don't think you can send video over that cable though. I believe CCTV uses coax. I mostly replace CCTV camera with IP cameras they are cheaper and you can access the camera for a smart phone remotely. You would have to check with the Camera Manufacturer. I am running IP Foscam cameras.

I have ran those cameras over 400 ft in our industrial plant using cat6 cable and they work great. The manufacturer told me I might have to add power because of line loss of the power over Ethernet but I have not had a problem. It might go 300 feet with cat5 but we just pay a few extra bucks for cat6 and do not worry about it.

It should work fine. I have mine running through an HDMI to ethernet (and then back to HDMI on the other end) adapter. As others have said, as long as it HDMI signal is sent unaltered, it should work. You may also want the 90deg adapter because it can stick out far-it just depends on how much space you have to work with.

Yes. This should work with no problem. Just don't plug the feed side into a network switch and the camera shouldn't even know the Ethernet has anything connected camera side.

So you plug the master power into your standard outlet and insert the cat 5e cable from that power source into your router. Then pretty much do the same for the camera, plug its power source into a standard outlet and plug in the ethernet cord to that and then the other end goes into the camera. Its power over the ethernet cable. Just besure to not use any extension cords or surge protectors, as it messes up tge transmission. The instructions state bothpower sources have a surge protector in them. Definitely a DIY job, nothing fancy, very straightforward. All the best! Its a great unit!!

It works perfectly fine with Cat 6 (mine was Cat6 plenum). I used this throughout my home three months ago, all connections tested correctly, and I haven't seen any issues at all.

No. This is not an IP camera. it runs down CAT5 but only works with specific Samdung DVR's. Doesnt have an interface to the camera.

Not directly. You will need cat 5 baluns on each end for video and a power adapter on each end and it will work.
