funone 0 Posted May 5, 2013 Hi, is this possible? I have one network cable going in the ground to the garage (as I need Internet connection in the garage). Now I would need 2 cctv cameras in the garage hooked to a DVR at my home. Is there some way getting the signal from these 2 CCTV cameras to the dvr through the existing ethernet cable? Without interrupting the Internet signal? Any advice would be highly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lowpro 0 Posted May 5, 2013 analog cameras or ip cameras? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funone 0 Posted May 5, 2013 Analoc Cameras. That's the problem (?). I was thinking of 2 video balun's through a switch and then in the other end switch and baluns but I hear this wouldn't work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kawboy12R 0 Posted May 5, 2013 IP encoder for the cameras or buy two network cameras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kawboy12R 0 Posted May 5, 2013 But then you're stuck with IP signals at the house/dvr end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kawboy12R 0 Posted May 5, 2013 But didn't you want an excuse to upgrade to network cameras anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funone 0 Posted May 5, 2013 I was just writing a question about that, I need to get some DVR that understands IP. Or is there som gimmick to get back to analog from IP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kawboy12R 0 Posted May 5, 2013 Probably but then you've sunk a bunch of money into your system and are still stuck with analog. If it were me I'd either sneak two wires for your analog cams into the garage or switch to IP before sinking a bunch of money into encoders/decoders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Owain 0 Posted May 5, 2013 If you're using 10 or 100 Mbps Ethernet you're only using two out of the four pairs in the cable. You can try sending 2 x video on the spare pairs using baluns. Gbps Ethernet uses all four pairs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi. you could remove your cat5 from network and use that for cameras and then run your network over garage power using Ethernet over power box. which is not expensive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If his house is not too far from his garage, why not go wifi? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted May 5, 2013 If his house is not too far from his garage, why not go wifi? well the answer to that is in the guys post. and wired is always better than wifi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vector18 1 Posted May 5, 2013 What answer is in his post? I don't see where he says he doesn't want wifi? And if he would use the powerline adaptors, wouldn't he be interrupting his internet? So tell me Tom, what is your data transfer rate with these powerline devices? I like wired over wireless myself, but if your going to say something, at least back it up. Tell me how much mbps you can get with the ethernet over powerline, just for the record. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vector18 take it easy power line adapters very often works just fine u can get up to 100 mbps or even more sometimes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted May 5, 2013 We use 500 Mbps boxes but standard will do for this job ..... As we know the distance is not that great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vector18 1 Posted May 5, 2013 We are just having a discussion here, since you are the one who said wired is always better than wireless. Doesn't the Netgear R6300 wifi router send data up to 1300mbps? http://www.netgear.com/R6300# If my math teacher took his meds when he taught me, than I think 1300 is more than 500, no?

tomcctv 190 Posted May 5, 2013 You asked what I used I told you .....yes you can get high ...so what Is this another post your going to mess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vector18 1 Posted May 5, 2013 Here is a screen shot of my current laptop using the internal wifi card. If I use my 5.0ghz usb adaptor, I usually get 450mbps, and I don'not need no stinkin cables connected to my laptop. So, I'm not sure why you wouldn't just said you can go with powerline or wifi, those are two options you can use because todays wifi technology has come a long way and you can achieve speeds that are acceptable by todays standards. But no, you just wanted to shoot me down, as you always do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vector18 1 Posted May 5, 2013 You asked what I used I told you .....yes you can get high ...so what Is this another post your going to mess Please quote where I actually asked you what you used. I don't remember asking you. I do remember me mentioning wifi and than you saying wired is always better than wifi. I simply asked if you can back up that statement. Than I provided a link to a wifi router that can transfer up to 1300mbps and than a screenshot of my wifi data rate. How am I messing up this post? All you had to do was rather than be negative towards me and my reply about wifi, was to say that either idea would be fine. If you ask me, this is another post that you have ruined.
