DS-KIS603-P(c)

[Kaneruddell]

Evening guys! First time posting.

I’ve set about setting up my Ds-603-p (c) today. Run my cat6 to both the door bell and the screen (separately), then back to my TpLink switch.
My aim is to power these both via PoE but I’m not getting any power to either units. The switch works with other things.
I’ve also temporally wired up the 12v power supply that ships with the kit too the screen and that powers the screen on fine.
Basically PoE isn’t working. Help!

Hi @Kaneruddell, what model is your TP-Link switch, please?
Is the switch plugged into a power supply / wall socket?

Hi Kyle. It’s the following switch…

TP-Link LS1005G 5-Port.​

It is plugged into a standard 240v wall socket. I’ve also tried plugging into another switch I have located near my ‘hub’ that my Sonos amps etc use and no luck there either.

Thanks, unfortunately, that's just a regular network switch with no PoE capabilities, which is why it isn't powering either unit.

You're not the first to make that mistake!

You'll need an 802.3af PoE switch to power the doorbell and indoor screen, like one of the models on this page:
