    Crummy POE switch?

    So I didn't totally understand this thread. Is this saying that the Dahua cameras all have this glitch?? Or do I just need a new PoE switch? Jon

    Crummy POE switch?

    Hi all, I have a Dahua SD49225T on a PoE injector - an iCREATin. For some reason, periodically, my camera loses connection to Blue Iris. I have to unplug the PoE (I can't reach the camera easily) and plug it back in. The camera comes back after that. Is this a bad camera? A bad PoE? Help...

    Stupid question - that link takes me to a forum. How do I get to an online store for EmpireTech Andy?

    Outdoor PoE for parking lot surveillance

    Maybe 200ft. wide and 100ft. away from camera. I realize I'll have to have it be stationary, and I'm okay with that. I've thought about getting 2 or 3, but want to start with 1...

    Outdoor PoE for parking lot surveillance

    Hi, Searched, but didn't find an answer. Posted here before, bought a camera for indoor use, and am very happy with it (besides the fact that I bought an international model, rather than US domestic, but not a big deal). Now that I understand how these work, I want to buy more! I need an...

    Severely uninformed person needs recommendation!

    I am eventually going to do POE... but just can't yet - logistically. In the meantime - can I use the power block I listed from Amazon for this?? Jon

    TonyR - I see that, as well. Could it be that there is a typo on the power supply? I mean... isn't that what these things do, is convert AC to DC? I guess I want to know if I should wire this thing up or not? If I do, and it's wrong, will it kill the camera? Should I just buy a new power...

    I'm surprised that this isn't shipped WITH the camera... oh well - thank you very much for the reference. I bought 4, just in case, since they are 50 cents a piece. Thanks very much - AGAIN! Jon

    Guh. Really? It came with the camera! Why it doesn't have a plug end on it is beyond me... I thought I'd just be able to plug it right into the camera. Not the end of the world, but don't want to mis-step at this point...

    Severely uninformed person needs recommendation!

    OK. So I got it. It's here. I'm super excited. I want to plug it in... but the wires are exposed. I guess I have to wire a connector on?? But one didn't come with it! Argh. I am eventually going to do POE, but for now I need to plug it in and set it up/test. I attached two photos...

    Oh - one other question. I don't know how to know if I need PAL or NTSC...?

    Severely uninformed person needs recommendation!

    Guys, thank you so much. I am going to go with exactly what you are suggesting and give it a try. I'll never know if I don't try, and this has tremendous potential for me. I do have one question. If I go with this camera: ahua SD49225T HN 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera ,free DHL...
