gadfly 0 Posted October 3, 2012 Settling now on a network IP system with NVR. Looking over the myriad of camera options out there and when searching for 2mp IP cameras I'm noticing that some of them are indicating they have a BNC output on them. How exactly can you access in IP 2mp digital camera over a BNC connector and how are you supposed to hook it up and control it from an NVR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vector18 1 Posted October 3, 2012 When you read that they have BNC output, they mean they ''also'' have BNC output. If they are IP, they MUST have ethernet connection. Some IP cameras do not have bnc output as well so again, if you read bnc output, they mean ethernet AND BNC. Now, if you connect the BNC output to a monitor, you will not be getting the full resolution of the camera. You will only get the highest analog resolution.

gadfly 0 Posted October 3, 2012 aha....thank you much. Apparently when you start digging into distributors or mfg. they must expect their market to know this stuff as they're not geared for the do-it-yourselfer. Now it's on to find the best price on this equipment. Thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
