Wireless CCTV guide please.

Recommended Posts

Hello i need abit of help

 

am new to cctv but i have been asked my a friend to set one up for him because i work with computers ( i know that means nothing when it comes to cctv but hey )

 

I need to set up 8 to 10 camera's using wireless - what i need to know is this possible 2 our door and 6 to 8 indoor. I understand they all need hard wiring in to the mains but i wanted to know is it possible to have a dvr that takes all 10 wirelessly?

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Thank you

Dave

Wireless cameras really should be avoided - until you get into big bucks for purpose-designed hardware, the results will be less than satisfying, especially as you add more cameras. Range will be a big limitation, and interference between cameras as well as from other electronics will be an issue.

 

If you MUST go wireless, use network cameras with WiFi adapters, and an NVR (network video recorder) connected to a WiFi router to record them. It's still not ideal, but it's better than the alternative.

 

The ideal is to find a way to wire the cameras.
