We are looking into using a V1000 or V2000 in a project with a single camera on a pole. We would need only 1 v1000 and 1 camera, or a v2000 and 1 camera. However the problem I keep running into is finding a 802.11AT or similar rated injector that works outside in the elements. We can use the N000000L179B outdoors from the looks of it to power an injector however it doesn’t look like a V1000 or V2000 supports passive POE that we can just use the power supply straight (Like on v2000 and use aux port for camera). Of course with a v1000 we would need 2 injectors so the v2000 and camera can be connected together via LAN. Has anyone used a similar setup with having some outdoor rated POE injectors? I know this can be done with a V5000 (as it supports passive POE) however we are hoping to use a v1000 or v2000 as per price and not needing long range. Thanks!
Hi Cody,
We have many customers who successfully powerup their camera on pole via Aux port of V2000.
Does this answer your query? or Is there something else you need clarification ?
Just to confirm, all the cnWave 60GHz will support a passive PoE.
In addition, if you don’t need the v2000 connected to the LAN you can even use the C000000L184A DC to RJ45 Plug Power Adapter, and use direct DC to the main port.
You can plug the Camera in to Aux port, and power it from the v2000.
If the other end is the DN and running the E2E you can configure this from that end and it will config over the air. Or preconfigure before you go on site.
Let us know how you get on, we’ll be happy to help.
Thank you for the information it is greatly appreciated! I was looking more specifically for info on powering the v2000 but looks like Antony answers that below. Thanks!
Thank you for clarifiying this. I must have been mistaken that the v1000/v2000 does not support passive poe but looks like it should then. This greatly helps us with figuring out power requirments. Im assuming you would reccomend using the ac to dc power supply in the user manual for this setup? Then we can use that DC to rj45 adapter as well. Appreciate the response!
Just to make sure? I dont think it will be a issue but we have a couple links that will only be a 100 meters or less. Do you see an issue going from a v1000 on a building to the v2000 on a pole(the v2000 will power the camera)? Thanks again!
Hi Cody, the AC/DC PSU N000000L179B would work, we’ve also seen the others like Procet being used, if you need an outdoor device.
The radio’s don’t care what combination you use. A v1000 work with a V2000 is no problem. You should get a solid gigabit link with high availability at these ranges!
As you know with 60GHz it’s rain that has the biggest affect once installed, but it’s a dB/km, So you may get 10/17dB/km fade due to rain but at 100m that’s just over <2dB, these radio’s won’t even notice.
The radio’s will use adaptive power control to keep the power just right, if the range get below 50m you can select Short Range Optimised mode if the received signal strength starts getting in to the -40’s.
