      Newbie here. I am trying to set up my POE video doorbell (just bench testing it). When I plug it into my router, there is no status light on the doorbell. I also tried plugging it into an Eero. Same - no light. I am using a TP-Link Model: TL-SG105
      Gigabit Desktop Switch. Will this power it?

      I have also tried using different Ethernet cables. I also tried resetting the doorbell. Still no status light comes on.

      What am I doing wrong?

      Did I receive a dead doorbell?

          @canterbury_444229323972785 you know that POE stands for "power over Ethernet"? Meaning the power for your doorbell will be transmitted via LAN cable. Your TP-Link switch definitely does not have POE, nor will your standard router have.

          My guess based on your info is that you simply do not have powered your doorbell yet. 😉

          What you need is to power the doorbell either with wires for auxiliary power supply, a POE switch or a POE injector.
