Thank you, I am getting there slowly with info from here

Thanks for the info Don, sorry for being a pain with what must seem like obvious questions. Thanks Dave

Hi all Will this do for the PoE network switch using CAT 6 ?? A friend of mine has one I can have http://www.thebestcomms.com/Planet_4_Port_PoE_Injector_POE_400_p/planet-poe-400.htm?gclid=Cj0KEQiA1qajBRC_6MO49cqDxbYBEiQAiCl5_O_YPKjQKsomFVGxySPgOG44s2Z1_pjRhX4qTBxCshYaAuu88P8HAQ&click=2

Hi Boogieman Strangely enough I was talking to an installer of CCTV systems last Friday and he said to use ip cameras with Cat6 and not Cat5 so I think that's the way I will go. I know about NVR's but could you clarify please..... "You can save lots of work in some cases because you dont have to homerun the cables to the NVR...you can bring the cables to a poe switch somewhere in the house then run a single cable to the NVR. Also you dont need to run independent power ...you just use a poe switch or nvr equipped with poe." Many thanks. Dave

Thanks for the info Don. Now you have given me more things to contemplate and read up on HDCVI - HDTVI OFF TOPIC, Was in your city last week, first time visit, enjoyed it immensely, disappointed with the New Freedom Tower, it seems like it needs finishing off at the very top. Dave

Hi all I'm a newby so stick with me. Home use, 4 x HD 1080p cameras, 20 mt range IR I talk to suppliers and they are telling me for what I want SDi is the way to go and then I speak to another and they say IP and Cat5 is the way. Can somebody possibly point me in the right direction with an unbiased opinion, make and model of cameras and recorders please. Don't want to spend over the top, £400 / £500 region all in. Thank you
