The ADC-VC826 can be connected to the Internet with an Ethernet cable. When Power over Ethernet (PoE) is used, the power and internet connection are both supplied through the Ethernet cable by a PoE-compatible networking device.

Ethernet capabilities

Important: To use this video device without PoE, an AC adapter must be purchased separately. Compatible AC adapters are available to buy on the Partner Portal (SKU: ADC-VACC-PWR-VC101).

For more information about using PoE with Alarm.com video devices, see How does Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) work with Alarm.com video devices?. If Power over Ethernet is unavailable, use an AC adapter for power and an Ethernet cable for data.

Wireless capabilities

The ADC-VC826 is incompatible with Wi-Fi; it is a hardwired-only device. However, the video device can be used in conjunction with an ADC-W110 PoE bridge to allow the ability for the camera to communicate over Wi-Fi. For more information about the W110, see PoE to Wi-Fi Bridge (ADC-W110).
