Reolink RLC-810A 4K PoE Wired Security Camera

By Tom Calder

Our verdict · Researched
4.4 / 5

A different proposition to the rest of this list — a wired camera, powered over Ethernet or a DC adapter, with no battery to charge and no subscription to pay. 4K resolution at the lowest price point here makes it excellent value if you already have PoE cabling or a compatible switch; if you don't, running a cable is the real cost, not the camera itself.

Best for
Households with existing cabling, an NVR, or a PoE network switch who want 4K without any battery to manage.
Skip it if
You have nowhere to run a cable

Researched, not used. We haven't used this product. This review is built from the maker's specifications, owner reports and our own sizing.

What we like

  • Cheapest camera in this entire comparison
  • 4K resolution at 25fps with no battery to ever charge and no subscription
  • IP67 dust/water resistance and a 2-year warranty confirmed directly on Reolink's own UK spec page

Worth knowing

  • Requires Power over Ethernet or a wired power adapter — no wire-free option, so cabling is part of the install
  • No battery backup, so it goes offline if mains or PoE power is interrupted

ⓘ As an Amazon Associate, PreparedBritain earns from qualifying purchases. We may earn a commission when you buy, or a fee when you request a quote, through our links. When two products are close, commission can decide which one we pick. A clearly better product always wins. Amazon prices come from Amazon's own product data and show the date and time they were retrieved. Prices at other retailers are checked by us, less often. Prices and stock can change at any time, so always check the retailer's price before you buy.

Who shouldn't buy this

Skip this if you have nowhere to run a cable — every other camera in this comparison is genuinely wire-free.
