What the Braeswood area clients are actually asking for
PoE camera installation in Braeswood / West U-adjacent (77025) answers a specific long-tail search: people in the Braeswood area looking for exactly this work, in this pocket of Houston.

A PoE camera takes its power from the same Ethernet cable that carries its video, which removes the need for a local outlet at every mounting position. That is the entire practical appeal: one run per camera, no electrician at each soffit, and centralised power that can sit behind a UPS so the cameras stay up during a short outage.

The power design and the cable routes dominate.
- Camera count and their power classes
- Switch capacity, both ports and PoE budget
- Cable run count, length, and route difficulty

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover the Braeswood area (77025)?
Yes. EVOTECH serves the Braeswood area in 77025 as part of the Houston service area. This is coverage, not an office claim — the page describes the neighborhood's conditions, not a location we occupy.
Why do cameras reboot at night but work fine during the day?
Almost always PoE budget. Infrared illuminators engage after dark and the total draw rises, pushing the switch past its budget. It presents as intermittent camera dropouts and gets misdiagnosed as a network fault. The fix is a switch with sufficient budget and headroom, calculated from peak draw rather than idle.
