  1. Hi! I have no experience with the Samsung line, and very little IP. Client wants to upgrade to a SDE-5002 16 channel DVR(already purchased and sitting on the desk, so no choice there), but he wants to integrate the existing Samsung cameras (1 SOD14DC, 1 SSC21DC, 2 SSC-21C's, and 2 SOD-14C's). It appears the newer system uses an internal balun. The older cameras only look like they have three wires in them (getting ready to crack one open now). Is there a simple solution here? Can I just adapt from RJ12 to 45, or is there no balun setup in the older cameras? Thanks in advance, Shawn

    Adapting older Samsung to newer Samsung

    Believe me, I explained it to the customer, who installed the previous system himself. It is his belief that 8 pin connectors are simply two more than the previous one, and that nothing really has changed. I have no knowledge of samsung systems, so I really couldn't refute his theory. At the same time, I don't want to buy him a replacement DVR because I was right, but trying to make it work like he wants. I did put an email into Samsung from their website, but I don't hold much hope of a response. I wouldn't be here if I could run coax... LOL In fact, he bought a LOT of premade cables he wants me to use. I have a crimp frame and a box of plugs, but he doesn't want anything custom cut to length. I dunno. I just had hopes with the world wide interwebs, someone else had already been through this. Shawn

    Adapting older Samsung to newer Samsung

    Well... Here are what I think the pinouts are. This is the one for the cameras (I think): Kinda straightforward to me. Here is the DVR pinout directly from the manual: I notice it has two 12v pins, and a seperate ground for everything. So, what you're saying is if I pick up the CVBS+ pin for video, a 12v pin for power, and the nonaudio ground, it might work? Being on the wrong, or crossed ground won't burn up an opamp or whatever they're using, right? Maybe I need to tie the 12v ground and CBVS- together, but then I am worried about loops... Far as the DVR, he's already bought it. It came with 8 cameras and a 1T drive for only a couple hundred more than the one you suggested. So, even though this is using a RJ45 plug, it's not IP, it's actually just a proprietary connector scheme, right? Thanks again, Shawn
