Is there a method to link two PoE devices via a single Cat6 cable using PoE+? You plan to use a PoE+ switch and need to connect two IP cameras outside, with only one cable going outside. The cameras will be positioned close together for overlapping coverage. Thanks ahead!

You'd likely want a second cable as well.

No problem. Just one cable on the device. The only option is to insert a tiny PoE switch between them, though it might not supply sufficient power from a single PoE cable.

The USW-Flex solution will work provided every camera draws under 10W. When using 802.3at, the overall downstream POE budget for the USW-Flex reaches 20W. Other POE switch models from different manufacturers also offer comparable features.
