Ethernet Port on NetGear WiFi Range Extender for POE Camera

Does anyone know if a POE IP security camera can be connected to the Ethernet port on a NETGEAR N300 Wi-Fi Range Extender to connect to my wireless network?  The POE feature on an IP camera states "the POE camera requires a POE Injector or POE Switch to operate." Would the Ethernet port on a NETGEAR N300 Wi-Fi Range Extender work?

    Don't know where this reply came from. Please excuse my ignorance. Darren replied and I attemped to answer as follows: Thanks for the reply Darren. Main issue is ignorance of the navigation of the site. What I was trying to post was: Have tried four different wifi extenders/repeaters. All with the same tyyoe of failing. Problem seems to be that when the extender is connected to my C3700 (two cheapies, one amped/wireless and NetGear N2700 I think) I get the same results and no connection. MyC3700 wifi availability Iin the tray is NETGEAR43_EXT, not the extender_2.4 and extender_5.0 that should be shown in the tray as available to allow for boost connection. Am probably more in my own way in this endeavor than anything else in these attempts. OBVIOUSLY AN OLD DOG TRYING TO STAY CONNECTED.
