Hi! Have you selected the camera yet? If not, I am sure there are a few camera models available on the market that have poe-passthrough, in which case you can just choose one that either: Supports passive PoE, then hook it up using the same cable and injector that is in place, or Supports 802.3af, then power the cam with 48v power supply (or Poe Switch) and use 802.3af converter for the QRT Cheers! Mike.

Hi guys, we have a Mikroitk QRT on a mast running from a POE injector down below in the building, it's all working fine. We now need to add an IP camera on the mast which will use the same cable and needs to run from POE as well. The QRT only has one port and we need that radio, an omnitik with poe out won't work, so we need to split the cable somehow with a hardened switch or something, but the catch is that the Mikrotik passive POE won't run the camera as it's 802.3af, I am looking for some quick to implement and relatively cheap ways of making this happen and was hoping somebody would have some simple suggestions ?
There is no option to run a second cable so I have to make this work somehow with one cable L
