Disclosure..I have a relationship with Dahua.
One of the primary reasons Dahua dealers tell us they use ePoE, beside the obvious operating length extension and reuse of existing coax, is to avoid installing CCTV equipment into end users' IT closets. They wish to avoid finger pointing if something is unplugged, or drags down UPS availability, for example.
As regards the proprietary nature of ePoE, the Dahua LR-1002 EC/ET ePoE adaptors allow any third-party IP cameras to utilize long runs of coax.
As new Dahua cameras are introduced, they are equipped for ePoE, as well as standard IP operation, at no additional cost.

Could you please hire an editor? Grammar and spelling mistakes just take away from the professionalism

Just wondering if you tested the LR1002-EC/ET models with standard PoE switches and cameras? I ask as the manual for these units states that it supports non-ePoE devices and can also be used in conjunction with the LR1002 units to allow connection of ePoE cameras to non-ePoE.
With regard to the statement "ePoE camera selection is limited, mostly fixed lens, and mostly lacking advanced features such as super low light capability or Dahua's top end WDR..." a quick look at the Dahua website shows a broad range of mid and high end models supporting ePoE. All the models ending in -E or -ZE etc are ePoE models. I wasn't able to find any Panoramic or PTZ camera options with ePoE support so there's some room for improvement there but in theory you could use an LR1002-1ET at the camera end and an LR1002 at the ePoE NVR end.

We know of customers that sent back the Dahua eoc adapters as they burn down by very high percentages.

You should be able to use any camera with an LR1002. We have used them with Axis for example.

We did some additional testing on this after the comments about third party cameras and switches working, and have edited the report. The net/net is that it does work, but it wasn't consistent in our tests. While the majority worked with no issues, we had several cameras which simply did not work, with no real rhyme or reason as to why.
This image shows an Axis camera connected to the Dahua NVR over 1,000' of RG59 using the EoC adapters:

Is there any other option here besides Dahua who can convert coax to IP effectively and efficiently?
We are having issues with using Dahua with our Milestone XProtect systems due to the fact that they do not allow downgrading of firmware. And if there are support issues that Milestone has to investigate, then Milestone will not support us unless we have their latest tested firmware installed on the camera.
