I know, I know. I had you at "PoE-Powered Monitor." The ability to install this monitor without taking up another power receptacle is game-changing enough. But there are so many more features to this little monitor that it almost sounds too good to be true.
Find it on Amazon! www.amazon.com...
Not only is there a PoE in port, but there's also a LAN Out port. This means that you can connect another device to your network simply by connecting it to your monitor.
There's also a 12V DC power input connection. But if you're powering this monitor with PoE, the 12V DC input turns into a 12V DC output, allowing you to power other devices with your monitor.
You pickin up what we're puttin down? You smell what we're stepping in? If you're following along, you've probably already jumped to the conclusion that you can USE YOUR POE-POWERED MONITOR TO INSTALL A SECURITY CAMERA without having to run a whole new Ethernet cable from the camera's site to the home switch. This monitor is sure to be any IP security professional's new best friend.
But wait, there's more! The USB power port allows you to power USB media devices straight from your monitor. Google Chromecasts? Amazon Firesticks? You name it. If it has to be powered with a USB port, your monitor can provide the power it needs, meaning you can use this monitor for so much more than just CCTV. Imagine you're installing security cameras at a small grocery or retail store. This monitor could also be sold as an addon for displaying digital signage in areas where it would be difficult to do with a standard monitor with a plug.
In this video, we walk you through several use cases where this monitor can come in handy, but we just scrape the surface. Let us know in the comments below how you plan to use this monitor in your own installations!
