This utility model defines four 100 Mbps Ethernet buses according to the standard and uses four buses as power supply pins for PoE. When the power grid is supplying power normally, it communicates with the computer room through this bus to transmit monitoring images.

[0025] As an optional embodiment, the power grid monitoring circuit includes a transistor V14, a resistor R47, and a resistor R2. The base of the transistor V14 is connected to the power grid via the resistor R47 to detect the power grid level. The emitter of the transistor V14 is grounded.

[0031] The working principle of the network cable power supply device 100 provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0032] The EX-POWER power supply is an external mains power source. If the external mains power is working normally, the base of transistor V14 is at a high level, the base of transistor V13 is at a low level, the MOSFET V12 is not conducting, and the POWER (DC-5V) is not supplying power. The power supply VOUT for the surveillance camera 200 is supplied by the mains power EX-POWER through D1. When the mains power is off, EX-POWER is at a low level, the base of transistor V13 is at a low level and not conducting, the base of MOSFET V12 is at a high level, and the gate of MOSFET V12 is at a low level and conducting. The board's power supply VOUT is then supplied to the surveillance camera 200 by the POWER (DC-5V).
[0033] It is understandable that this utility model replaces the uninterruptible power supply with a low-cost, small-size, low-current 5V energy storage device, and then supplies power to the surveillance camera 200 through the Ethernet interface 110, which has a high cost performance and avoids the surveillance camera 200 being easily affected by power outages.
[0034] The monitoring system provided by this utility model is described below. The monitoring system described below can be referred to in correspondence with the network cable power supply equipment 100 described above.
[0035] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the monitoring system provided by this utility model. Figure 4 This is the circuit schematic diagram of the monitoring system provided by this utility model, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model also provides a monitoring system, including a monitoring camera 200, a monitoring board 300, a central office equipment 400, and a network cable power supply device 100 as described in any one of the above. The network cable power supply device 100 is connected to the monitoring camera 200, the monitoring board 300, and the central office equipment 400 respectively.
[0036] As one embodiment, the monitoring board 300 is also connected to a cloud server via a 4G / 5G communication circuit. The AD interface of the monitoring camera 200 chip samples the power supply of the base of transistor V14, with the signal line being AD_CONNECT. When the level of the AD_CONNECT pin is detected to be low, a power outage can be detected immediately, and the power outage information is sent to the monitoring board 300 via MOSI and MISO. The monitoring board 300 sends the relevant information to the cloud server via the board's 4G / 5G module. At the same time, the monitoring camera 200 sends the compressed monitoring video to the monitoring board 300 via the MOSI and MISO pins. The control board transmits the monitoring video to the cloud server via the 4G / 5G communication circuit.
[0037] As one embodiment, the Ethernet cable power supply device 100 includes an Ethernet interface 110 and a 5V simple energy storage power supply circuit 120.

The power grid monitoring circuit is connected to the power grid and the switch control circuit, respectively. The switch control circuit is connected to the 5V energy storage device and the monitoring camera 200.
[0038] It can be seen that the interface of the network cable power supply device 100 provided by this utility model can be divided into three types of functional interfaces, including Ethernet functional interface, power interface and bus interface. The Ethernet functional interface uses pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 of Ethernet interface 110. When the power grid is working normally, it performs video data transmission and communication, and can also use these 4 pins to provide PoE power to the monitoring camera 200. The power interface uses pins 7 and 8 of Ethernet interface 110. When the power grid is interrupted, it supplies power to the monitoring camera 200 from a 5V energy storage device (such as a battery, capacitor, etc.) to ensure that the monitoring camera 200 works normally when the power grid is interrupted. The bus interface uses pins 4 and 5 of Ethernet interface 110. When the power grid is interrupted, it communicates and transmits data with the monitoring camera 200, and transmits the monitoring data to the cloud network through the 5G network via the control board.
