does outdoor nest camera have POE (power over ethernet) capability?

I am looking at the outdoor nest cams but do not want to keep recharging the batteries. I am not being able to find any documentation saying if these cams have POE capability. If they do not then I will be looking for other options. running a cat 6 wire I can do. A power line is a bit out of my scope. Thank you for any insight you can offer.

Sadly, they do not have POE.

@MFireball

If you have an outdoor electrical outlet within 30 feet or so of the camera's proposed location, you could also purchase the optional 10-meter power cable. That's how we power our Google Nest Camera (Battery), with a weatherproof cover on the outlet.

You can get PoE to USB power adaptors but its a bit of a kludge.
