NETGEAR JGS524PE POE Switch losing many camera connections
I have a Netgear Surveillance system using 7 Dahua POE cameras and 1 Vivotek POE Camera connected to a JGS524PE, along with the rest of the network non-POE devices. On July 1, I lost 1 Dahua camera e...
Your cameras that failed would happen to be the IPC-HDW2431TMP-AS-S2 model or similar ?
I have a Dahua PoE NVR/switch and have lost 4 Dahua PoE cameras out of 12 cameras installed in one of my sites. All cameras had only been installed for less then 3 months before getting stuck in reboot loops (even with direct 12V power).
Dahua support were useless, they could not help with any troubleshoot and told me to send the failed cameras back to the place of purchase.
I ended up losing five out of seven Dahua IPC-HDW4300S within 60 days. I never discovered why. It was as if they had a time-bomb that went off that disabled them all at once. I have replaced them all with newer Dahua, and bought one extra for the next failure. It has been nearly 2 years since replacement, and the remaining 2 original Dahua cameras and one Vivotek camera remain operational. Very strange. I do not think the rock-solid Netgear switch was the problem.
