Can a both types of microphones SCK sells, being the "Powered Microphone, product # MIC" and the "IP Camera Microphone, product # MP-MIC", be successfully used to hook into the ELI-SIP-EMUD-21-4R dome IP camera as well as your IPPTZ-EL2L12X-Mini-O PTZ camera?

I am using the "Powered Microphone, product # MIC" with my analog cameras, and as I have spares am hoping they can also be used with these IP cameras?

What would the drawbacks or benefits be to using one type rather than the other?

Also, I see a pigtail on the ELI-SIP-EMUD-21-4R that has a + and - on the plug, is that a go to power a 12 V DC microphone with, or will the microphone require another power input?

How about the IPPTZ-EL2L12X-Mini-O PTZ camera, the 24 V DC system, or do you have to supply the microphones with a separate 12 V DC power run? I know there are a bunch of lines coming out from it but don't remember if there were any 12 V lines in the mix? I have to go up a ladder to check whats what, so would be obliged for a heads up before going to that trouble.

Maybe a 24 to 12 volt converter on a Wye from the 24 volt line running from the wall wart to the camera? Or will that suck up to much power from what the camera needs?

Open to suggestions.

OK, try to make this simple:

Will a SCK "product # MIC", the one used with analog cameras, work connected to an IP camera?

Short answer:

yes.

You still need to run separate power to the mic obviously.

 

The MP-Mic is generically a better microphone for ip cameras but yes the original mic will work fine.  Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions.

Does the MP-Mic require a separate power supply also, or can it be powered via a IP camera or it's CAT5 POE connection of some sort?

Also, what improvement would you say the MP-Mic has over the analog Mic, is it sound quality, hookup easier, or?

At the moment I am getting a lot of whine from my analog Mic's that are hooked into my analog cameras, any suggestions about that?

Have 3 Mic's hooked up, and all 3 have that same whine, is worse at night when the IR's come online.
