Soundy 1 Posted March 26, 2010 What are you trying to decide, then? Whether to use IP cameras, or analog cameras with IP video encoders? If so, there's no functional difference when it comes to the network... your decision should rest on the appropriate camera for the purpose; ie. day/night, IR, PTZ, megapixel, etc. If a megapixel camera is most suitable, then all you need is the wireless link; if you don't need megapixel but need other features better provided by an analog camera, go with the analog and then add the video server. I assume power is already available at the poles? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
