Hi, We are using ACTI TCM 3411 & TCM 3111, we have a stealing incident. The suspect pass the blind side of the 1st camera, passes the 2nd camera which is on a high ceiling (wearing a cap, footage pixelated) then go on the far end, enough for the 3rd camera to not recognize her face. I thought dome camera is enough so that people won’t be able to predict the blind side of the camera. How are we going to improve our CCTV that we will be able to have clear picture of the face of all the people who passed our camera especially in the lobby? Thank you very much and more power to CCTVFORUM.

Hi, I am looking for CMS that can support multiple NVR and software based CCTV server. What are my options aside from Aimetis and Milestonesys CCTV systems? Thank you very much and more power to CCTV Forum.

Hi, Any suggestions please? Thank you in advance and more power.

Hi Gurus, What POE switches (4 - 8 ports) brand and model you recommend for ACTI dome IP Cameras? I am using Cisco SG series on my network and will have around 50 IP Cameras. I read on some post about some POE switches that is not industrial grade that supply less power than the IP camera needed. Thank you and more power to CCTV Forum.

Hi CCTV Gurus, I currently have 12 ACTI camera (Dome deployed in resort) running NVR on top of Windows 2003. Every month, I need to restart the Windows server as some camera will not be showing on ActiveMonitor. I am going to add 22 IP Camera (combination of bullet and dome camera models) this year and another 22 next year. I am planning to use ENR-2000 w/ 4x4TB HDD and retiring the current Software base NVR to avoid issues above. I feel standalone appliance will be faster and will not have same issues above (I maybe wrong, please let me know if you have info.). I am getting 2 ENR-2000 to accommodate 32 IP Cameras. I will get 2 more ENR-2000 to accommodate additional 22 IP Camera next year. I will be using CMS to manage the viewing requirements of central security officers and few remote. Based on your experience, is my plan good or which area should I improve? What are the PRO and CONS of using Software compare to standalone? Thank you very much and more power to CCTV Forum.
