    New Camera System - Coax + Cat5e

    Also, you can just terminate the came runs into an RJ45 connection. THEN FOLLOW WIRING STANDARD LIKE T-568 or T-568B. For analog. Balun http://www.ebay.com/itm/221249637788 FOR IP: POE SIMPLE DONE>.....

    New Camera System - Coax + Cat5e

    Probably not necessary to double up pairs unless you have large current draw (IR, PTZ, etc.) If you do double up you can use a color code, no standard that Iam aware of but you can use one that makes sense to you. EXAMPLE: ORANGE -POS GREEN - NEG BLUE - VIDEO BROWN - PTZ RS CONNECTION
  3. " title="Applause" /> Same impression. I attribute this to poor management. When your front line employees have no clue that means they are not well trained. HIRE SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THEIR STUFF... OR TRAIN THOSE WHO DONT! ARE THERE NO KNOWLEDGEABLE PEOPLE ANYMORE? CANT FIND SOME RETIRED ENGINEERS OR INSTALLERS, YOU CANT FIND SOME PERSONS WITH A BACKGROUND IN CCTV? Suggest management probably cares about sales and revenues not about quality, support, etc.

    Lens for 720p Camera

    Higher quality optics. Made to better standard. Otherwise you may very well have soft or blurry picture with a cheap lens.
  5. I have one Dahua dome camera bad out of box.... Let this be a lesson to everyone. Buy your cameras from places which stand behind their products with a return policy (COSTCO). Otherwise you have to incur the financial loss from someone elses poor sense, workman quality, or lack of support.
  6. Anyone have experience? Swann: Used Swann tech support I think once or twice before. They were helpful in my case. Qsee: Very poor tech support. Reps were not knowledgeable about own product line. Some of my call was answered in foreign country (India?) Look at reviews on google seems like I was not first to complain about this company. (THANKFULLY COSTCO HAS A GOOD RETURN POLICY AND THEY PROBABLY DUMP BACK ALL THE RETURNED PRODUCT ON QSEE WHEN THEIR REPS ARE NOT ABLE TO RESOLVE BASIC ISSUES)
  7. Not judging resolution only. Judging colors, focus, color accuracy, etc. But it would be very helpful to also see full size image in full resolution. How can a 5mp picture be judged by a 1024 x 768 image?

    This is my layout, now what should I choose

    How height do you recommend mounting the cameras above floor level for doors. Thanks. As you point out , a reference to the sun would be handy but NOT ONLY for exterior cameras. The cameras by the front door are likely to be subject to large variances of light intensity over their FOV so BLC & WDR will be almost mandatory. but being NUMB NUTS you would have already KNOWN that and it just slipped your mind about mentioning it.
  9. You right... I meant not just easier to install.... I meant surface mounting wire is easier for service. But I agree... Wiring in wall is probably more secure from tampering and damage...

    3 fugitives storm our parkinglot

    Not bad image... This is Dahua camera? What model? What firmware is this camera using? Do you know? Thanks.
  11. Who sold this camera to you? Do you consider this to be a good picture?
  12. Connections from the outside are easier to install though no? Plus if you put DVR in secure room you shouldn't have to worry so much. iknow, and i often wall mount DVRs too. but that doesn't change the fact that the connections are exposed! i'd like just a plain box on a wall, with a bunch of cables going into it, which are then terminated on the inside of the box! no connections visible from the outside!
  13. When you were in school what reciprocity did you offer your teacher?
  14. I'm here to learn. Is this not one reason for which forum exist?
  15. Catching up to who? Not bad at all Chinese definitely catching up
  16. I understand some information you like to keep secret? It seems whenever question come up you dont answer or you reply but when ask for more info you stop giving it.... What is unusual about ? that wireguy is my friend ? about info it is very simple we say what we want to say exactly like everybody else on this forum
  17. Seems quite unusual. As if you are both trying to hide information. Strange. Icamera plz note wireguy is my personal friend
  18. Why not on forum? Why are you getting involved? Was the question addressed to you? Or are you causing trouble again.... usual bad behavior?
  19. Why? Do you prefer Cat5 / Cat6? Why, can you explain?
  20. Would you share who is the manufacturer of this camera? Thanks. Almost full size
