Residential CCTV Help

Thanks for that.


Thanks but I think these are POC Coax cameras and I want ones that will run of cat5e cable instead, POE.

I did start to look into all the various things to look for in a camera on ipcam but it's a bit overwhelming, certainly a lot more complicated than I thought it was going to be.

It might be worth giving a supplier a ring that's what I did and they were pretty helpful, I did look at the IP cameras but they where a lot more expensive than the TVI cameras you do get a few more features with IP cameras like virtual lines so if anyone crosses it you will get alerted but I was being tight and didn't want to spend the money. Also the TVI recorder I have is a hybrid recorder I can add up to 16 IP cameras onto it if needed too, I would just need a POE switch to power them

You can run the POC cameras down cat5e you just need POC Video Balun, haydon sell them.

I was not aware that you could run the POC down cat5e so thanks for that
Will the cat5e also carry the power?

Yes with correct baluns

Yes sparkymarka is right you can run the power down the cat5e with POC baluns
