POE IP Security Camera Switch
I have an unopened Netgear Prosafe GS108 Gigabit Switch. Can I use this switch for my long distance POE IP security cameras?
5 cameras are 130 feet away and I need a switch to connect them to the one run 130 feet. Can I use this model switch? Thanks

Hi Jupitermoon25,
Welcome to the community! :)
The GS108 switch does not support PoE. I recommend you the GS110TP switch which supports PoE on all 8 ports and you can use this with your 5 cameras. Be sure to you use CAT5e or CAT6 ethernet cables between the GS110TP switch and the 5 cameras.
To know more about the GS110TP, kindly access the data sheet here.
