Living in an area with frequent thunderstorms? Your outdoor IP cameras could be at risk—even if your network seems perfectly fine. In this video, we show how to build a safer, more reliable PoE camera network by fixing network bottlenecks, installing surge protectors at both ends of the Ethernet cable, and ensuring proper grounding. We'll also explore long-range PoE for cameras up to 500 meters away and explain why fiber optic cable may be the better choice in lightning-prone areas.
