I have an Hik_vision NVr with 7 Hik-Vision Cameras connected to the POE ports of the NVR. I added a 16 port POE Linksys Switch LGS 116p. The first 8 ports are POE. I have the connections as follows:
PC to non poe port of LGS 116p
Hik-Vision NVR to LGS 116p using the LAN connection on the NVR
Router to LGS 116p non poe port
I can connect a Dahua camera to a non poe port on the LGS switch with external power and connect to it. I am able to see network setting, etc. But when I connect the same camera to a poe port on the LGS I get no lights or activity.
