ProsSafe JGS524PE POE Not Working

I bought a ProsSafe JGS524PE ethernet switch just over 1 year ago to help support some POE cameras. THe other day I got online to check my cameras and noticed that all of my POE cameras were offline. After doing some investigation, it looks like all of my POE ports are not powering up any POE devices. I even grabbed an unused camera to plug in as a test and it would not power up. However, if I connect the same camera using a power cable to the same POE port on the switch everything comes up just fine. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to determine what is wrong?

    eecycler,

     

    Since you have already reset the JGS524PE back to factory default settings, PoE should be enabled by default.  With regard to this,  I suggest you to open an online case with NETGEAR Support at anytime.  Kindly state what happen to your JGS524PE switch and the troubleshooting steps done to isolate the problem.  Attach a .doc or .pdf copy of the Proof of Purchase or Sales Invoice of the JGS524PE switch to the online case for warranty verification.  If ever the hardware warranty is still valid, an online replacement will be processed.

    Kindly answer the questions below:

     

    a. Have you tried to reboot the JGS524PE switch and check if same problem will occur?

      Hi Dane A,

       

      I have rebooted the switch several times but no luck. As far as the firmware, I just upgraded to V2.0.1.17 yesterday thinking that was part of the problem but I still have issues after rebooting and upgrading the firmware. I also tried several different ports on the switch thinking maybe a couple ports were dead but still no luck.

       

      Thank you,

      eecycler
