A small bridge that puts a PoE-powered Alarm.com camera onto Wi-Fi where no data cable reaches. Solves an Alarm.com cabling problem and nothing else.
Selora does not recommend this device
A single-purpose accessory for putting Alarm.com PoE cameras on Wi-Fi, with no function outside that platform and no Home Assistant presence of its own.
It is only ever bought to work around a missing data run to an Alarm.com camera. Since we do not specify those cameras, the accessory has nothing to attach to. Where a wireless uplink for a wired camera really is unavoidable, a general-purpose wireless bridge does the same job without tying the solution to one vendor.
- Pull the Cat6, wherever it is physically possible
- A general-purpose wireless Ethernet bridge, where it is not
It takes a PoE camera that expects a data run back to a switch and gives it a wireless uplink instead, for the case where power is available but Ethernet is not.
Like the other ADC access points it does not hand out its own DHCP range, so it bridges rather than routes and the camera stays on the site network.
It is a cabling accessory, not a smart home device, and it has no meaning outside an Alarm.com camera deployment. Where a cable genuinely cannot be pulled, most local camera vendors offer the same trick, and running the cable remains the better answer wherever it is possible at all.
