How to Power PoE++ Security Cameras with a 12V Battery (No 220V AC Required)
Learn how dual 12V/48V input network switches with standard PoE++ output eliminate the need for 220V grid power in remote security deployments.
Deploying high-power security cameras in remote locations usually means one big headache: finding a 220V AC power source. Running long power lines is expensive, and field environments often lack grid access entirely.
Our latest industrial networking solution solves this challenge. Featuring innovative dual 12V/48V DC input switching and high-power IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) output, you can now run heavy-duty PTZ cameras directly from a standard 12V vehicle battery or solar setup. No inverters, no 220V wiring, and zero stability issues.

Modern outdoor security cameras—especially PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) domes, laser night-vision cameras, and thermal imagers—require high wattage. They often mandate the PoE++ standard (IEEE 802.3bt), which delivers up to 60W or 90W of power over standard Cat6 cable.
Traditionally, generating PoE++ requires a 48V–57V DC internal power rail. If your job site only has 12V batteries or a solar array, you used to have two bad options:
Our new industrial PoE switch integrates a high-efficiency voltage booster engine directly onto the PCBA. Here is how this technology optimizes field deployments:

No need to hire licensed electricians to run high-voltage 220V lines or set up waterproof AC breaker boxes in the wild.
Direct DC-to-DC conversion removes the wasteful DC-AC-DC conversion cycle, extending your field battery runtime by up to 30%.
Low-voltage DC systems are safer to install in damp, outdoor, or temporary job sites, minimizing fire and shock hazards.
This technology is perfectly optimized for specific off-grid and mobile networking scenarios:
