Arlo adds Power over Ethernet as wired power option for several cameras

Wire-free security systems have changed the game for home security over the last decade, and as the market evolves so is the product offering as demonstrated by Arlo today announcing a PoE adaptor compatible with several of it’s most popular wireless cameras.

PoE stands for Power over Ethernet which allows you to send power to a camera using an Ethernet cable which is plugged into a compatible PoE port on a router or switch.

It’s nerdy, not for everyone, but for many users running an Ethernet cable is something they’re willing and able to do, and critically doesn’t require a licensed electrician to install.

This means using this new PoE adaptor from Arlo you can basically run power to your Arlo camera allowing it to operate on your network but never need battery changes or charges.

It works with the Arlo Essential Outdoor, Essential XL Outdoor and Essential Indoor 2nd generation cameras.

Critically, this adaptor also delivers a network connection, so you’ll get faster streaming connections when looking at your cameras via the Arlo app.

You’ll find it for $59 if you’re keen!
