So... I ordered a DS-2CD3345-I from Ali to play around with (and compare with the new WDR range) and it finally arrived.
First problem is that it doesn't work (no power!) with the earlier firmware of the three (that's right 3!) Hikvision NVRs I have immediate access to. But I knew this before I ordered it.
So I update the 7604N-E1/P (thanks @rommycam) to v3.3.4 and voila it works... PoE back up and running.
However, I now notice (and I can't remember if this was the case before or was ok because I was using a PoE switch) that some of my generic ONVIF cameras - they have the same issue this newer 2CDxxx5-I range are having... except the firmware update didn't fix it!
Has anyone else had any issues with the PoE not powering non-Hikvision cameras and requiring either a PoE switch or 12VDC input?
Thanks,
Del Boy
