    I've been a little surprised too. Apparently my post made more sense in my head and wasn't as clear as I hoped. I started on my desk to configure and test the 3.6. Worked fine and got it configured but maybe I should have let it run/burn in a little longer. It was when I went to swap it...

    That is a step I didn't do yet and would be a good test. " I've tried a couple different injectors and 2 different POE switches. "

    Good advice and why I started on the desk. That's how I know it works over a few feet of Cat5. It's the longer distance that won't work.

    Good thought but there are 2 cables run to the working 2.8's location and neither one will power up the 3.6. So probably not I guess.

    So I've got a 2.8 and 3.6mm one of these. Any reason the 3.6 would only work over a few feet of Cat5? The 2.8 works great at about 60' of cable but the 3.6 just won't power up. I've tried a couple different injectors and 2 different POE switches. Anything I'm missing?

    don't seem to have that pick. ..and here's the setup, hoping to catch anyone messing with cars usually overnight. Extra light in the lower left is from the open garage door while I was testing.

    So I spent another hour tuning the new camera tonight. (Spent hours on the older ones in the past so I'm used to that, I've got 6 or so and running Blue Iris) It's better now and I've given up on color at night. Not enough light to keep it crisp and ID a face. I'm trying to cover 3 cars...

    Got a t5442tm-as and the low light color is impressive. But the problem is I have to force "Color" or it changes to B&W IR which even when I turn the IR light down it washes out the center. So I seem to have 2 choices. 1. use the nice color capability but if the porch light goes out its...
