calebpinter 0 Posted September 16, 2016 Hello, I'm looking at setting up a cctv system but needed some advice. I am looking at using a Q-see 720p system that has good reviews at costco but the issue I'm concerned about is that I need to run 70 meters of cable for the camera that would be farthest away from the DVR. I'm wondering if theres anything I can do to avoid losing the entire signal over the course of the cabling? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

calebpinter 0 Posted September 17, 2016 So I'm not positive yet. I was looking to get this system: http://www.costco.com/Q-See-8-Channel-HD-Analog-DVR-with-2TB-HDD,-8-720p-Cameras-with-100'-Night-Vision.product.100161016.html but I'm guessing i can't since the maximum operating range is 100'?

calebpinter 0 Posted September 17, 2016 I guess what I'd really like to know is what is it that determined the length of cable I can run? Is it the DVR or the cameras? what do I need to look for to be able to run 70m of cable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it the DVR or the cameras? what do I need to look for to be able to run 70m of cable? Hi I would go with lorex cvi .... The q-see is the same at Costco but it's old model. Cvi is good for 500m Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calebpinter 0 Posted September 18, 2016 Ok thanks. I'm considering LHV16212. Is CIB security a decent, economical brand? I've noticed this at newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIABE94HW0076 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus it's not cvi or tvi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
