    Cameras Floorplan Layout

    Hi Guys, thanks in advance for all the help " title="Applause" /> This is my first layout draft. Cameras: 5- Qvis EYE-N35-FW-N Outdoor Eyeball Dome Security Camera 3.6mm 600 TVL. DVR: 1- Dahua ESDV-ECONO-8 8 Channel Security DVR W/ H.264 Compression & D1 Resolution. Video Baluns: 10- ABL-1P06-CPP, Leaded Push-pin Video Balun. Power Baluns: 10- 2.1mm x 5.5mm Male CCTV Power Plug Adapter 10 Pack. Cables video & power: cat5. Power Supply: Monoprice 8 Channel CCTV Camera Power Supply - 12VDC - 13Amps. I still have a few question regarding the cables. How many cables i need run from power supply to cameras and dvr to cameras.? I have read that 1 cat5 can run up to 4 cameras (video), and between 2-3 cameras (power) depending of the camera's spec. Also I have attached a floorplan for the cameras location. Once again guys, thanks for the help.

    DIY Project - CCTV

    Thanks Jason, u got ur self a really nice setup + clean installation, great Job!. I have been reading quite a few threads here and found out that there are other options for equipments not as cheap as Zmodo, but still within a good budget. Such as: Qvis Zeus 8 Channel Security DVR Qvis EYE-N35-FW-N Outdoor Eyeball Dome Security Camera 3.6mm 600 TVL The cameras that u are using are nice, but not sure if they have LED for night vision... thanks again!

    DIY Project - CCTV

    Hi Guys!, I have been reading a lot about CCTV for home security, but I'm still about undecided about what to get. This is my plan for equipment: *Zmodo DVR 8 Channel *4 Outdoor CCD 3.6 lens camera (not dome style) *4 Outdoor/Indoor CMOS 3.6 lens camera (they come with the dvr..soo maybe for backup) (not dome style) DIY idea: I have a two story townhouse, therefore some cams are going to be on hook up around the roof (driveway, front street, rear patio, and space between townhouses), and two other facing toward the main entry and back door. The two attached to the roof are easy because of the attic, the other two I'm thinking about using two set of "Baluns" and throw one pvc pipe with two lines of cat5e (more heavy duty cable) for the two cameras facing both entries, coming all the way from the attic (where i'm planning to put the dvr - heat can be a problem though). If you guys have any idea or comments please feel welcome to let me know. =D thanks in advance
