Hikvision reports that it can now offer up to 250m distance over Power over Ethernet (PoE) for a number of cameras in its IP camera range.
The product manufacturer says that it has identified that many IP systems are designed where the cameras and Network Video Recorders are more than 100m apart; meaning that PoE can only be achieved through the use of extra switches and repeaters, adding to the overall cost of installation. With the greater PoE distances Hikvision says that it can now provide a more cost-effective solution for larger installations; with the benefit of simplifying the system design and installation.
Pom Chen, Technical Manager for Hikvision UK & Ireland said: “With over 4,000 R&D employees Hikvision is constantly looking at innovative ways to improve our solutions for professional security installers, system integrators and their end-users. The introduction of 250 metre Power over Ethernet is just one of many steps we are taking in 2017.”
