    Security camera set up required after home burglery attempt

    Interestingly, when you go to purchase that camera, you need to select PAL or NTSC. So what does one select?

    Foscam to Hikvision Migration

    Thanks. Most of mine right now are on counters or shelves (near power) and are wireless. It doesn't look like Hikvision is a viable option for me. Thanks again.

    So does Hikvision make a non-ceiling mount camera similar to the Foscam tilt/pan?

    Registered and emailed. So do you sell a wireless dome camera that isn't ceiling mount? I'm replacing Foscam cameras.

    strange cat5 wire connection

    You have to use the colors together. Blue with blue/white, orange with orange/white, green with green/white, and brown with brown/white. You want to use pins 1&2 and 3&6 of the 8 position RJ45. To extend the cable, terminate the end with a RJ45 (male) and buy or make and extension cable with...

    Foscam to Hikvision Migration

    I have a couple dozen Foscam cameras around the country and want to migrate away from them. I've had repeated issues with the cameras failing for one reason or another. They are pretty decent when they work but having to replace the failed ones when they are not local is a pain. I'm initially...

    Thanks. Your last question is really my question. Network infrastructures is what I do. I need info on the NVR and cameras.

    True Network Video Recorder

    If we use the scenario above, not counting a potential additional switch right at the router, I would have one switch in the attic to run 2 outdoor cameras and 1 indoor camera and another switch in my outbuilding to run 2 outdoor cameras. I would then connect the last indoor either directly to...

    True Network Video Recorder

    I think probably 8 cameras. I spoke again to the supplier and I'm still in the dark. It sounded lime he said yes I can use switches to minimize say a building to building run but unless I misunderstood him, the camera cabling had to originate from the NVR and I had to branch off that run. That...

    True Network Video Recorder

    Fenderman, Could you point me in the direction of the equipment? The supplier that I'm currently working with is saying no dice but I have a hard time believing the equipment fir this stuff is that archaic. I simply cannot run dedicated runs from NVR to each camera in most of my installs. I...

    True Network Video Recorder

    My network only became unstable when I installed Blue Iris. I never had any problems using Surveillance Pro, it could also be only pulling the substream which requires less bandwidth and processing power from the camera...

    True Network Video Recorder

    Thanks. I'm running BI right now. One of my installs (far from me unfortunately) running BI and 4 Foscam cameras (all wireless) is very unstable. All of the cameras are visible and functional using Surveillance Pro but when I add all 4 cameras to BI, one or 2 cameras drop of (No Signal). I can't...

    True Network Video Recorder

    First, let me stress that I am far from an expert on these products. i'm looking for a true network device. Not a NVR that requires you to cable back to the device. I would like to connect the NVR to a network and have it communicate with cameras that are on the network via their IP addresses...
