Really happy with http://www.vigitron.com/ They even have a 2-wire with POE solution

So is this the whole system or are you connecting to a larger system? It sounds like a 2 door video intercom system is what you need? Paxton does have a SIP video door entry system that might do what you need H_TJYnAZ_a8

FYI I have the 6MP 30fps Hikvision camera

Do you have any screen shots you can share of the interface in Milestone?

Sure how about a 29MP camera that can do what you want. What is your budget?

What happened when you tried the HTML5 web interface? When you reduced the client settings what did the bandwidth drop to?

Just remember you get what you pay for and there is a reason some VMS software is free. I would also recommend you order the cameras from a authorized US distributor and don't order direct from China. Hikvision is starting to shut this supply chain down, lock the firmware and will not support these cameras in the US. A 40 - 60 camera IP system is not a small system and if this is your first time installing one you will need support at some point.

This is going to be your problem "80 m/s, so not the best." The video should stream fine but PTZ controls will be rough. I would recommend setting up PTZ resets for the remote location to use. You will have a lot better results then trying to PT the camera over a connection like that.

What are your ping times from your remote location to the sit with the recorder? I would be very interested to see the quality of the 1MB/.5MB link What are the bandwidth settings for each channel of the encoders? FYI you can change the display quality of your remote client only which will not effect the recorded video. @ Remote Client > Client settings > Display> Change Display Quality (High is the default) Another option would be to use the HTML5 web interface. As it trans codes the video for lower bandwidth connections.

What fiber are you using? We had a similar issue with a customer where the fiber plant was 52/125 but one of the patch cables was 62/125. Couple of cameras on the switch worked fine but then when we added more cameras we had random network issues. Once the patch was switched to 52/125 it worked like a champ.

The unit is from Dynacolor but multible manufactures OEM it. http://www.dynacolor.com.tw/prodDetail.asp?id=92 Use this so you don't need extension cords http://www.veracityglobal.com/products/ip-camera-installation-tools/pointsource.aspx

Good luck.... The main unit that I know of gets very bad reviews from installers. Best option is laptop + POE with battery

Really hard to troubleshoot this without a network layout. I can tell you have have much larger systems using all Cisco 500 series switches without issues and I all have 700+ camera systems with HP switches without issues.

Please call support this issue was resolved in 5.4.0.32. Let them know you at still having issues with iOS and the Gateway. Are you having any issues with the HTML web interface?

Have you tried restarting the service? What version gateway are you using?

Easy fix Make sure "enable http authentication" is NOT check marked.

Yea this is a really bad idea.

I have to say I am very impressed with the analytics in Avigilon's H3a cameras. Snowing like crazy and only recording when people or cars are in the FOV.

I think the WDR in the Vivotek is good but since the FOVs are different you can't compare the details in the image.

It looks good because there are more pixels on target because of the tighter FOV

Why is the FOV tighter on the Vivotek?

HID has new NRC capable readers that work from a smart phone. Might help depending on what your trying to accomplish. Can you give more details? j-Z1T7czV7Q

FYI not much action in the dealer forum... your not missing anything

With Avigilon we can use this unit from Moxa to add trigger I/O to the system if we need more than what the cameras can provide. Another option is to get a cheap encoder which has trigger I/O. Most of the 4 channel encoders have 4 inputs / 4 outputs http://store.moxa.com/a/product/iologik-e2210-series?id=M20090324001 I would check Milestones supported list and see what network I/O devices they work with.

Do you have a link for where you can buy such a PC (or parts if you built it yourself)? I've never seen any that small. Thin clients yeah, but not actual PCs that can run full blown Windows and CCTV monitoring software. Here you go Intel NUC http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=nuc&N=100006668&isNodeId=1 Gigabyte Brix http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=gigabyte+brix&N=-1&isNodeId=1
