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

In case there are any other unaware diy'ers like me, you have to use both a "combiner" and a "splitter". Both are supplied in this bag but if you just use the splitter you will only see one camera come on. Plug the combiner into two jacks on the switch and then obviously plug in the two cameras. You would think a simple diagram on how to use them would be supplied for the lower iq amongst us.

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.

worked great for splitting cameras. You dont need to run dual wires etc.

Worked as Expected !!

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.

I ordered 20 of these and about half of them just did not work.

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

these work great if your trying to get 2 cameras on one ethernet cable.

Producto muy confiable, al principio dudaba de que funcionará correctamente pero la verdad es que hace exactamente lo que ofrece, buen calidad de materiales, asi como los protectores para intemperie, sin embargo recomiendo poner cajas selladas para mayor seguridad, de un solo cable salen perfectamente 2 canalws de video, onvuo se ocupan 2 puertos en el switch, de 1 solo cable UTP mínimo Cat 5e se dividen datos y corriente sin alterar la imagen, muy recomendable y pienso seguir comprardo

Works great! Saves having to run a second line for my other camera.

I used this adaptor to hook up two PoE cameras using just one network cable. I have absolutely no issues with my cameras sending data back to the NVR. If I ever need to add a camera to an existing network cable, I will for sure buy this again! 100% recommend this product. The picture I attached is two cameras using this Splitter cable.

This works for Mode A POE where power is on data pins. My cameras use Mode B where the the POE is on seperate pins from data. The splitter only uses 4 wire.

Does Not work on NON iP/POE cameras.
