Hi,
I'm have a real newbie problem, thought it was as easy as plugging cat 5, here's my dilemma:
I needed to move my NVR to another building so after doing some research into POE switches and camera power usage, this is what I bought and did:
I bought a Dlink gigabit it has 4 POE and a total of 52 watts power out put. I then ran a 30m Cat5e cable to the new location for my NVR.
I plugged, 3 Dahua IPC-HDW4300C ip cameras (power consumption 4.5w each) into the POE ports and the Cat5e into the Non-POE port on the Dlink, and the other end of the Cat5e into Camera Port 1 on my NVR.
I thought the Dlink switch would work out the ip address of the Cameras and tell the NVR then show my 3 Cameras ? but it only shows 1 ??
Is there any config I need to do?
Dlink and Dahua links for spec below, thanks in advance
Swatter the newbie lol
