POE powered access point - with a POE port for CCTV camera ?
Hi, does anyone know of a Netgear Wireless Access Point that is powered by POE and provides a POE RJ45 port to power a poe enabled CCTV camera? Regards

Your looking for an AP that passes through the POE?
I'm not aware of any that does as usually the AP is needing every watt that the POE connection can put out.

Thanks for your time. I have poe that comes from my garage to my workshop at the end of the garden - where I work. That powers a pass through switch that lets me connect POE to the camera and also hook to an access point providing me network to work with. The pass-through switch seems to have failed in some way and now no longer connects successfully to the camera. I could just replace the pass-through switch but figured that given I'd probably have to spend £80 on a new switch then I might be better off looking at a WAP that also acts as a pass-through switch. By the looks of things that doesn't exist. New switch it is then 🙂
Best Regards

Did you check to see if the switch actually failed? Most POE switches can't passthrough much power and it could be the camera/AP you're running is needing more power than the switch can supply

Thanks, I have looked at that one - amongst many others - but although it allows you to power it up with POE it does not give you a fresh port to connect to another device that requires POE. It only has one RJ45 on the back and that is where it would get POE input to power it up. Regards.

There are models with more ports, but powering the camera might be beyond them.
