    Need Help SD8C845FG-HNF Not Communicating

    Good explanation. That’s just poor business decisions to not adapt to changing technologies. IE has been extinct for YEARS now. I wouldn’t complain as much if we could use smart pss to make ivs and other technical adjustments.

    Three cameras offline after storm

    I would start by trying to connect one of the non responding cameras into a known working Poe port.

    Need Help SD8C845FG-HNF Not Communicating

    I feel like browser compatibility could be something they could easily fix. Not sure why they haven’t spent the time to do that though.

    Need Help SD8C845FG-HNF Not Communicating

    How long has this camera been installed for? Did you update the firmware recently? Are you using outdoor rated cable? Are you keeping the RJ45 connections watertight? Maybe try a new switch

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    Good info. I think we all wish that they could make the compatibility with browsers much more reliable.

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    Well I’d rather ask for others experiences and how it reacts before diving in.

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    According to the spec sheets on both cameras they say the web gui works on Safari. Can anyone confirm that it actually does, especially setting IVS lines?

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    My install will need to be a PFB300C mount. I’ve gotta get around a gutter down spout and the one you mentioned wouldn’t work for me unfortunately. My only concern is wind. Is it going to move or jiggle.

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    Have you guys used this camera for a while? Which browser works with it? I'm on a mac so compatibility is important to me.

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    This is the thread I was looking for. Not sure if I'm happy about that or not considering what I see from the comparisons. :lmao: I've been thinking about the PTZ4M-25x but the picture of the 5A is much cleaner. More than I allowed my budget to be :idk: No one probably knows but are there...

    Looking to add a PTZ

    Yeah it's not really needed but more of just something different or fun to have. But I obviously don't want something that's crap at night.

    Looking to add a PTZ

    I'm looking to add a PTZ to my system but just trying to decide which one I should go for. I'm currently using the dual camera IPC-HDBW4231F-E2-M at the location where the PTZ would go, it works fine and I could end up keeping it, but I also see a PTZ with a 180 degree cam on it. Has anyone...

    Thank you. I bought 2 of these cameras from Andy in 2025 and they are really good.

    EOM (End of Marketing and Sales) for 5442-S3 announced

    Is this the one that is EOM? IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 When you only put 5442-S3 it confuses me.

    Outdoor to indoor Cat 5e cable runs

    Is it ok to continue installing "outdoor" rated Cat 5e cable from the outdoors to the indoors where it terminates at the switch? Or is it better to transition once I get inside to normal Riser cable via a quality RJ45 coupler? Am I overthinking this? The total run from the camera to the...

    Cables for less Experiance?

    Ubiquiti USIP Cable Pro Outdoor Cat5e I'm thinking about getting this. So far this has been the best price I've seen especially for outdoor 1000' I would run mine outside from the camera and then indoors up in the ceiling right to the switch.

    Southwire Cat5e Cable

    Fair reasoning. If I am tucked up under the eaves, away from rain, snow, ice, UV rays, would I fall under the indoor category of cable?

    Southwire Cat5e Cable

    Southwire 500' Cat 5E Indoor/Outdoor Just wondering if anyone has used this specific cable on their installs outdoors? This will not be direct burial and only partially exposed to the elements like under the eaves. I've looked at Truecable and Monoprice and their prices are outrageous. I...
