Hi Kiwi, thanks for the reply Analog over CAT6, didnt know this. I assume i would buy the analog cam and need to buy a coaxial to RJ45 adapter, then pick up the signal via the network just like a IP cam? Your right the 2 cams dont have the same software requirments. The Baby monitor wont need any software, just be able to view via a web browser. But the other will. Havent the budget for 2 outdoor cams. I've been recomended this outdoor cam in another forum, would it do the job? W W W.ipcctvcameras.co.uk/CAM_R3020HQIPIPCCTVCamerasProductDetails.htm A little more than i wanted to spend, but if it does the job, fine.

Hello I’m in the process of installing data cables (CAT6) around my house and will be looking for 2 IP cameras to hook up to it. 1) The first will be an indoor baby monitor so we can watch our newborn at night from down stairs on the PC, also the grandparents can watch by login in from their house. This camera needs to see in the dark quite well, but won’t be used during the day. 1 way audio pickup would be a bonus 2) The other cam will monitor our front garden where the fence keeps getting kicking in. I will install the cam under the roof arch so it won’t need complete waterproofing. This one will also need to be able to pick out faces from about 22feet (5.5 metres) in darken light. The council have just put a big street light outside our house so it’s not in complete darkness. I will require PC software to control and record this over the Ethernet, I was looking at LuxRiot. I’m not looking to buy a DVR or PVR as both will be accessed and operated via a PC. I’m also not looking to spend loads. Budget for baby monitor cam £40-80 and the outside up to £150 Any help or advice would be welcome as there are so many cams around I’m just getting lost!
