The NVR itself is providing POE to the cameras. I do not have the ability to connect to then via IP unless I connect then to a POE switch but in this case the NVR is providing the power.

Voice, Video, and Telepresence / POE cameras losing link
May 05, 2020, 09:48:53 PM
So I have this issue. I've installed these POE cameras many times in the past but never had this problem before.
I recently installed an 8 camera system, using utp cat5e cable. When it came time to install I quickly realized that whoever did the electrical wiring in this place was a complete joke. Wires everywhere, large spools just laying on the drop ceiling, it was a giant rat's nest of electrical wiring with no way to avoid it.
I simply hoped for the best and went ahead and ran the cables. Most of which were either right up against the electrical wiring or right next to it.
Now the issue is that the cameras are randomly losing connection and the NVR must be rebooted for them to come back. This is happening several times a day.
My question is, could the electrical wiring be causing EMI to the cat5e and making this happen?
