RLA-PoECS1 offers a cost-effective solution by enabling the operation of two cameras using a single Ethernet cable. In this article, we will provide a detailed introduction to the RLA-PoECS1.
Applies to: Reolink PoE cameras (exclude RLC-823A, RLC-823A 16x, RLC-823S1, RLC-823S2) and NVRs (only hardware version N5MB01/N6MB01/N7MB01 is supported)
Whether you're looking to expand your existing surveillance system or have purchased multiple cameras simultaneously and want to avoid the hassle of additional wiring, RLA-PoECS1 is here to help.
RLA-PoECS1 consists of a combiner, a splitter, and three waterproof lids. Here's how each component functions:
- Combiner: Equipped with two RJ45 male connectors, the combiner can combine the data and PoE power from two ports into one cable. Both RJ45 connectors should be plugged into a PoE switch or a Reolink NVR.
- Splitter: The splitter features two RJ45 female connectors, facilitating the transfer of data and PoE power to two cameras.
- Waterproof Lids: The three waterproof lids are included to protect the connectors at the splitter end.
Note: The combiner and splitter must be used together. It is essential to avoid using only one of these two units to connect the cameras.
