Power over Ethernet (PoE) is the gold standard for security cameras — a single Cat6 cable carries both power and video to each camera, so there are no separate power adapters and no batteries to replace. The result is a reliable, always-on system with clean wiring.

Zaxx Tech Solutions designs and installs PoE camera systems with a PoE switch or NVR, business-grade cameras and concealed Cat6 runs. All security work is licensed, insured and DCJS-compliant in Virginia.
