I have the Pro W and the Pro W POE. Using the available demo, the type-c camera works flawlessly and shows video in real time. The POE model on the other hand has a 1-2 second delay and a frame rate of around 13 fps.

Is this a common/known issue or could this be an issue with my hardware setup?

    Hello awetzel ,
    It's a standard PoE "limitation" that hugely depends on your network setup. If you connect your computer and OAK POE cam on the same POE switch (with not much traffic) there shouldn't be that much delay. Also ethernet has about 5 times lower bandwidth (1gbps vs 5gbps), which can also be problematic for large frames (eg. 4k/1080P color video stream). Thoughts?
    Thanks, Erik

      Makes sense. The current setup is a 100 Mbps POE switch with only the computer and camera connected. At 100 Mbps that delay is expected?

      I would strongly suggest using 1gbps POE switch, that will likely help a lot. We haven;t tested our devices on 100mpbs switch, but that seems about right.
      Thanks, Erik
