Color 4k troubles

[Timokreon]

Afternoon all,

Just had 1 of my color 4k-x 2.8MM come up with a Failed to Find Network Host.
I rebooted the NVR and it's back up, but I'm wondering if this is the beginning of the end for this camera, or ??

Changing ethernet wire will be a PITA, as well as even checking it for moisture etc.. but if needed I'll check.

If this is the beginning of the end for the cam, what do you all suggest? I have good enough light for color 24/7, I like the 4k, etc... but. It's mainly overview for my driveway, etc..

I'd check the wire and connections first. The only time I had a problem similar to what you are experiencing, it turned out to be the wire. If you're using a Dahua NVR with your 4K-X, under "Maintenance Center" select one-click-diagnosis. It may detect something intermittent. As far as replacing the camera, I would stick with the 4K-X. I have three 4K-X series 1 and recently bought three 4K-X series 2 cams for backups, since they are listed as end of life. Great cameras.
