Two Monitor two Views CCTV installation system

Recommended Posts

I have installed an eight Camera IP CCTV system for a Kindergarten. After completing the installation (working), the Administrator wants a second Monitor with an independent view from the first to be included in another room. Here is the condition that DVR is now: The DVR has one RJ45 cable as input (from the Cameras) and one VGA coming out. Splitting the VGA will not help as the views of the two Monitors will be the same. I am thinking of splitting the  RJ45 cable just before entering the DVR and plugging each to a different DVRs with their separate Monitors. Does it work this way ?

Thanks for your helpful feedbacks.

Hi. If your recorder has rj45 inputs then it's either a IP system or a old 100ohm system 

DVRs are BNC camera input

 

can you give name or a picture of your system

Hi. 

If using that system are you also using a switch ?

how many cameras are you looking at displaying on other monitor

There are 12 Cameras. They want all the 12 Views to be displayed in each of the two Monitors.

Hi. Your making your own post complicated.

if to be the same then yes a VGA or HDMI splitter will do.

So take the second hdmi feed to the second monitor using a hdmi externser over Cat5
