Something like this?

I use it on 4 at my home. It's hard to use anything else once you have used it. In fact I'm posting this on my Avigilon server.

I don't do much residential but ascetically I would want domes under the eves (Soffet). It's hard to tell in the pictures if your soffet is level with the ground or is it the same as the roof pitch.

Cool! Score one for the good guys. Is that IR Illumination or Ambient light?

Your right. I'm an idiot! I thought it was a new type of IR Illumination. http://www.rayteccctv.com/videos.aspx?id=34

I'm late to the party but I'm considering a solid state drive for my laptop because I have crashed 2 drives from banging them around on a ladder.

I copied this from the cut sheet: RAYLUX Fusion is a range of high performance White-Light illuminators designed specifically for low voltage installations. The illuminators provide class leading performance, long life and ultra low maintenance. They incorporate Raytec’s latest surface mount PLATINUM LED’s to deliver excellent night-time pictures with improved optical output and outstanding reliability. The RAYLUX Fusion series has integrated Command and Control™ circuitry. Installation is quick and easy, requiring only a 12/24V AC/DC input. Each unit is fitted with Active LED Life Control to carefully control LED output, delivering consistent illumination power and a projected working life of 10 years. RAYLUX Fusion illuminators are supplied complete with bracket. Control features on the RAYLUX Fusion include adjustable power output, photocell and photocell adjust. RAYLUX 25 Fusion is suitable for all low light installations up to17 metres (56ft). http://www.rayteccctv.com/products-category.aspx?categoryid=2

Consider this, You want us to suggest where to put cameras from your photos correct? If you had never stepped on that property and only had those photos to go by could you? The photos only paint a small piece of the picture. First off the photos are shot from where the camera will be looking instead of what the camera will be looking at. I have no idea where a camera needs to be placed unless I'm standing where the camera will be looking at what the camera would see. Make any sense? Also, I have no idea of your skillset of fishing wire nor have I been in your attic to know what is accessible and what is not.

That's a multi faceted question. If the network has a 10gig backbone and it's all layer 3 switches with QOS and VLANs the IP camera System isn't even a blip on the radar.

LMFAO!!! " title="Applause" /> " title="Applause" />

the way i read it they want 5mp fixed cameras and HD (720p) PTZ cameras.

Viewing size is the same. Pixel density is the difference.

It's possible that IE's security settings are blocking a plug in install. Go to IE tools, internet options, security tab. Click on trusted zones. turn the security all the way down for trusted zones, click on sites and add that IP to the trusted zone.

DU Meter.

Anyone have an idea of who is the OEM on these? Trying to help a friend out that painted him self in a corner for his first IP camera job and found out his NVR solution won't support these cameras. http://www.intellinet-network.com/en-US/products/9028-nfd30-network-dome-camera He has 30 of these installed and needs a NVR solution.

I can terminate an RJ-45 plug that'll pass any test in about 30 seconds. It's not that it's a *problem* for me to do them, but it IS bad form. Your backbone cable should be solid-core, which is intended to be secured properly and not moved/flexed. An RJ-45 plug on the end of a solid-core cable violates this concept (even though I realize it is hardly ever likely to be moved/flexed after install). But the other issue is that most people don't realize that RJ-45 ends are not "universal", there are different ones for solid and stranded cables, and even across different brands of cable they don't all work 100% reliably. This is sort of the equivalent to some of the hack 110V wiring we've all probably come across. There is more to doing it right than just making a good electrical connection. You want the termination to be clean, neat, serviceable, and also conforming to standard best practices. Field-crimped RJ-45's are generally none of the above. JMHO. Very well said.

I have used some of those that the wire goes all the way through the jack and then gets cut off in the crimping process. Problem is certain types of network ports have metal in the back and those cut wires will short out. I have no problem making RJ45 terminations but they are not the proper way to certify a channel under 568 standards. Horizontal cabling standards require solid cable as the permanent link with stranded patch cables at each end factory terminated and certified. fortunately or unfortunately I came from the communication cabling industry so I was required to do things the right way.

Amen. And now Panduit has come out with some stuff that doesn't require a punch down tool and you could teach a monkey to do it.

That was funny though.

Is the top image the only one that's not cropped?

Yes I talked to them and they told me I have to buy it. I think that's total BS. The license is on a USB key and he has that. I think the guy thought I was asking for Topaz Server. The server is running fine with all 10 ACURT4s connected to it.

Yes a Keystone jack. I try not to ever do field terminations of RJ45s unless I have no choice. I punch down a keystone jack and use a factory terminated patch cable from the jack to the camera.

I'm stealing that image. I think I just peed my pants from laughing so hard.
