“In the event that I cannot connect all cameras directly to the NVR, can I connect them to a PoE switch on the same local area network as the NVR?”

Hello, We don’t recommend connecting the cameras through a PoE switch. The cameras are designed to receive stable, dedicated power directly from the NVR, and using a switch can cause power inconsistencies, which may lead to cameras disconnecting, not powering on properly, or reduced performance. For best results and reliability, we recommend connecting each camera directly to the NVR. Best regards, Jenny | Defender Customer Experience Expert
