RLC-823A with poe via mesh

Is it possible to connect  RLC-823A with poe via mesh WiFi?

@vodkan_410792752525441 if this is a poe then you can only connect it to a poe switch/nvr.

A POE power supply can be connected in between the camera and the switch in front of it, if the switch itself directly in front of the camera does not contain this feature already. But have an eye on the needed power, which has to be provided by the POE power supply of this channel. But POE features of the switch *before* this can't be used, because only directly following items can be powered by a switch. The POE feature itself is not touched / connected in any way to the Mesh features of Your system...
I myself use a rather complex Mesh system and POE feature are provided by POE power supplies directly in front of the cameras (in between switches and cameras).

You will need to confirm you have good wireless signal between the mesh points.

I would suggest anything below -60. If you get up in the -70 to -80, the wireless bridge will not sustain the load.

@kimchigun Indeed, any signal strength between -67 and -30 dBm is good. Once you dip below -67 or -70 dBm, performance will start to degrade. Below -80 dBm, things probably won't work reliably at all (I saw iphone didn't disconnect at -80 dBm!!).

@burkm_172321696190677 thanks would like to use a poe injector to connect the mesh point
