    Passive POE injectors

    It is loud, but I have mine in the basement next to the managed switch, furnace fans, dehumidifier and tower(server), so it blends in. Basically in my office so I'm used to the noise. You looking to sell it then? SD

    Amazon purchase in a hurry

    @shockwave, from what I recall from reading here, Dahua makes two types. Chinese versions for in country, and International versions for everywhere else. Firmware language, updatable firmware, no law enforcement back door, etc. Someone will chime in and correct or add to that. SD

    If they are in stock, it's two days to the US, no matter what path you choose. I've alway preferred Paypal as my credit card hasn't been vetted on Ali Express. He states he has 410 pieces available to ship by next Wednesday, anywhere in the world. SD

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    Thanks HD. I feel comfortable in the lift. I'm fortunate enough that my close friend owns the 46' gas version of that Genie lift. I've used it countless times, from cleaning the gutters, to hanging X-Mas lights, to just going up as high as it will go and testing the fear factor. 52' (working...

    Start a conversation with @EMPIRETECANDY. Ask for a Paypal invoce. He just got 110 pieces and is filling orders from 3 weeks prior, from Ali Express and IPCamtalk. Also, PM him on AliExpress at his store for the quickest reply. He must have the app on his phone and answers right away. Due...

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    I'm still learning and testing here as well. Set up three so far. One off site extensively (many hours involved), and two in the garage looking out my windows. Those are easy to play with locally. It's always a work in progress. Earn as you learn, by trial and error. We will get it. I'm...

    Adjusted and tested plenty this weekend. Drove in and out of the driveway approach at least two dozen times, with cars, trucks, bikes, and foot traffic. I see your sensitivity is set to 8. Best results for tracking were at the default, 5. Set to 3 or less, no tracking. 8 or above, wacky...

    I wouldn't think you would get a ground loop without power? The power supply introduced the ground loop on my end, in two locations. Switched to two prong both places and it went away. SD

    Excellent. I just finished the Pole Barn install this Saturday. Have the exact setup as you do @Hound Dog 911. 6 days and 26 hours total for the entire project. Probably could have cut that down to 5 days and 22 hours but: I had the PIR's working on the bench. When transferring to the...

    Start a conversation with @EMPIRETECANDY. Ask for a Paypal invoce. He is sold out at the moment, but is scheduled to get 300 on 4/24. I don't believe those are all sold, but act quickly. They won't last two days. Next batch is 400 pieces beginning of May. Also, PM him on AliExpress at his...

    That's no ground loop. Try Ryan's suggestion and/or send it back. He'll take care of it. I'd guess an epacket is $17.01 for a 1Kg 20cm x 20cm x 15cm DHL Express probably $25 -$30 SD

    Wireshark will not be needed. 10 times more advanced than these IP Cameras. I'll guess the IP address of the camera changed? I'll assist, but ask you to start a private conversation. SD

    struggling to connect to IPC-HDW5231R-Z

    I'm not sure what your knowledge level of networking/IT is? These enterprise cameras are so technical, and don't come with instructions. Some basic networking knowledge is key, or it will be like pulling teeth. I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's not the cable run. What are you using...

    It could be a number of things. Bring it back inside and test it with a working whip. If it's working there, it's your new run, somewhere. Inexpensive tester from Amazon is key for your toolbox if you have cameras or any networking tasks. SD

    Dahua Starlight Recessed Dome PTZ (SD52C225U-HNI)

    I don't have this exact model, but the SD59225U-HNI (I believe they have the same internals), will adjust accordingly. I have used the included 24V AC power brick to power, and hooked the cam directly in to the NVR (5208-8P & 5216-16P) without issue. I'm sure someone else will chime in and...

    The Monoprice connectors listed above don't have the cable bar, they have these tiny "ears" for lack of a better description. The outer sheath/sleeve wiggles around when crimped more than I prefer, and that's with 23 AWG Cat 6. 24 AWG Cat5e moves around like it's in a washing machine. I...

    I'll state that I have never used Blue Iris, but a bunch of others are pros on the board. I have successfully set up multiple mics with a Dahua 5208-8P and 2 -- 5216-16P NVR's. I have never connected an external speaker to the camera, but have to the NVR to listen to the playback. It had to...

    UTP = Unshielded Twisted Pair. Helps cancel out electromagnetic interference (EMI) and keeps your speeds up. When terminating Cat6 (and all, it's best to keep the untwisted portion as short as possible. Twisted pair - Wikipedia Shielded really isn't necessary unless you have large DC motors...
