Power Supply or not?

I have RLC-510A cameras which are POE. Do I need to use the power supply that came with them or just use the ethernet?

@tapndog_647126922768699 If you have a POE switch or Reolink NVR just power it with POE. You don't need to power it using the low voltage input unless you want to. It does not have an internal antenna, it's not wi-fi so you still need to use the ethernet cable for data transfer to view/operate the cam. Some Reolink cams like the current E1 Outdoor must be powered by low voltage, it's not POE but it has an ethernet port for the data. A newer model E1 Outdoor coming is POE. Be sure to protect all the cable ends from moisture/water which can short out the cam. Put the cable ends in a junction box, inside the wall or up inside the soffit, or use waterproof plumbing tape.
