Tired searching around, found some info on the older non PA model but not much.

Has anyone found a compatible PoE switch that is managed to power this thing? We got 2 for a client (Through a OEM not dahua directly). We had a Unifi XG 6 thinking "170 Watts of power for 100 Watts of equipment and its managed (Whole site is unifi) and nada. Tired soooo many switches both PoE+ and PoE++ Both 60/90 watt ports and nothing. 24w Injector? No problem! Amcrest switch that is no longer made and is PoE+? No Problem! So looking to just use the included power brick then at this point.

Just wasn't sure if there was any switch that could power these guys properly or better two of them (got two that will go next to each other. One will be most static, other will be manual).

Thanks

It may use all 4 pair for power; If you have not already done so, check the integrity of the cable (continuity, etc.) and insure that the CAT-5e or 6 cable is pure, solid copper, no CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum).

yea cable perfeclty fine. and tired others as well thinking same thing. They are brand new Premade CAT6 cables too. Same cable works on one PoE+ Switch (Amcrest) but not another (HP, LinoVision, TP Link, Unifi) let alone on the PoE++ ports on the LinoVision and Unifi. They just get nothing. nada yet a 24W 48V injector powers it no problem.
