Question

What is the recommended AC cable for NPD-9501-E Midspan 95W 1 port outdoor?

Answer

Power cord  requirements :

• Recommended cable:
  • North America - SJOW or SOOW standards
  • Europe -  H07RN-F

• Rated to: 300 Volts (or better)
• Temp. Range: -40 to 65ºC (or better)
• Size: 16 - 18AWG 3C or 1.0 mm²  - 1.5 mm²  3C
• Approved for indoor and outdoor use.
• Cable outer dimension Ø 3/16” – 3/8” or Ø 6.0 mm² – 10 mm²

The 95 W midspan is a high-power PoH (Power Over HDBase T) device that provides data and power between an Ethernet switch and an IP camera.

In the table below, an "X" identifies which midspans can supply power to which models of cameras:

MIC IP starlight 7100i camera is not IEEE 802.3bt complaint. It works on the older HDBaseT POH standard (Defined by the HDBasT Alliance). 

• It will never work with a NPD-6001-I bt Midspan and it cannot be modified in any manner to work with a bt midspan.
• The Bosch NPD-6001-I (Microchip PD-9501GCI/DC) does not support the HDBaseT POH standard. This midspan is not listed as one of the compatible midspans on the MIC cameras Data Sheets.
  • Note that in case you will try to get the MIC camera to connect as AF, you will not be able to control the camera. You will never be able to Pan/Tilt the MIC with only 12.95 W.
  • The PoE midspan for industrial applications enables remote PoE power for Bosch IP cameras that support the IEEE 802.3bt standard. Please always check the camera Data Sheet for compatibility with this standard.
• Therefore, for a MIC IP starlight 7100i camera you must purchase NPD-9501A or NPD-9501-E in order to use the High PoE solution:
