How this fits a small deployment:

  • Only one PoE port. The box can power one 802.3af camera directly. The second GbE port has no PoE, so it suits a single shelf camera. If you need more cameras on one unit, you'd add a PoE switch. pcpsol.compcpsol.com ↗“2x GbE (one 802.3af PSE)”
  • Suits retail spaces. It's fanless, rated IP50, and mounts with VESA or an L-shape bracket, so it can sit near or behind shelving. pcpsol.compcpsol.com ↗“mechanical.mounting_type=VESA, L-shape bracket”
  • Software. It's listed with JetPack 5.1.1 support. pcpsol.compcpsol.com ↗“software.jetpack_version_support=5.1.1”
