  1. I have one cat5e cable to a certain point in the house? however, i think i might have 2 cameras at this location. . . did i read some where on the site that you could have 2 IP/network cameras on a single cat5e cable? POE powered as well?
  2. great, handy to know. and you can still record simultaneously from both cams?
  3. Tell me this, i'm in desperate need to get my study of CCTV set in one direction, analogue/digital cost is the main factor, i want to go IP-MP but not sure at all of the cost of a camera that would meet my expectations. what i need to know is what ill be paying per cam in USD. requirements Outdoor can be dome or bullet IR outside my house is black black.. I mean no street lighting. maybe there isn't an IP cam for this yet id expect if paying for a IP cam with 1.3-3 mp . . be it 720/1080 id be having crystal clear pic. or would be acceptable to monitor a home, clearly see and recognise someone within 20 ft of the cam. . also motion detection is desirable while I know the NVR is another factor, the cost on cams adds up fast. ive seen some people say here a nice 1.3mp cam 720 for $150 . . . is good, then another place saying u need to spend over $300 to get anything decent. Please help!

    actually, what could make it easier, what camera on the IP system would meet my needs above. if I said i would pay €150-€170 per camera what is the best camera id get for this? and secondly. would you pay for it? .. . maybe im loosing it, I thought 1-2mp cameras were in this price bracket.

    I've been glued to the pc for 2 days reading on cctvforum and other blog links found here. great site by the way. . love it. to the problem, I'm in Europe, Ireland to be precise. and Im well aware that most on here are from the US, all costs are quoted in $ and companys web sites like costco are all in US. after reading and surfing the net for 2-3 days + research over the last yr or so i have found out that IP /Digital/ Network Camera system .. . call it what you will is the future. . versus say 600TVL camera system. what has shocked me is that nothing exists in Ireland/UK/Europe without paying for starters up on €350 for one good camera. and we seem to be stuck in old mode. . take a look here for instance. . http://www.avforums.com/forums/home-automation-lighting-security-climate-control/1578765-whats-good-cctv-system.html it seems to be the norm. .. every site over this way is not offering anything on IP systems.. even the big electronics companies in the UK dont carry anything in this line. http://www.costco.com/.product.100003461.html?cm_sp=RichRelevance-_-itempageVerticalRight-_-CategorySiloedViewCP&cm_vc=itempageVerticalRight|CategorySiloedViewCP no offer like the one above anywhere in the UK even. Listen, ill be quick. . . Dahua,q-see,ACTi etc. . all top brands none available in europe, or at good prices if found. is there a company that ships to europe from the states?? or what are my options?. ill pay good money for a good system, but i aint no fool. . camera is a camera. . or should i just leave the IP and go to the old school section of CCTV. what im looking for IP System 8 Cameras I live in the country, i mean its black at night time. . no street lighting. (best cam for this)?? remote viewing would be good if (motion detection, then email/phone/text on detection of an intruder). camera scope, it say 20 - 30 ft would suffice, reason why i need it. I need to know if someone calls to house and basically watch them leave again with peace of mind they just rang the door bell, not attempt breakin etc. . im so remote that i think cctv is my first system rather than alarm. . (who will hear the alarm i keep been asked). . thoughts welcome what are my options . . will i switch over to analogue? bare in mind i have cat5e all over the house to locations + a twin core wire for power. .. didnt know what way i was going. please help. . .

    do the re brand them? seriously , ive been googling. and im exluding adata from the list from a selection/no price point of view. care to point me in the right direction? or maybe my search terms arent efficient Dahua uk IP cameras, im finding it hard to see how u think its cheaper in the UK. . ive seen some serious deals in the US . . . and if i convert that back to € great savings are to be had. i found a Qvis 1.3mp camera for €210. . .shocking http://www.cctvireland.ie/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_15&products_id=238
  7. cant get the siamese cable anywhere this weekend, seems to be only available on internet. i needed this weekend. I just hope the 2 X.75 cable is enough to carry the power. we ran it all this evening, 8 camera points around a H shaped house. . 1 rg59 1 cat5e 1 2X.75mm
  8. just running a few cables for the future, incase i go CCTV as the house is well back from the road and hidden, anyone to hear an alarm wouldnt find the house that easy. . . anyway. . heres what im doing, , , running RG59 to camera points running Cat 5e to camera points and running a 2 core cable for powering up the cameras. . . Question, the 2 core i got from the supplier is 2 X .75mm2. is this cable ok for powering up? would be great if i could get a response asap as im wiring today. . Thanks
