    Is there a 180 degree horizontal and around 90 degree vertical IP camera that's under, say $300

    The Annke FCD600 have an 81 degree vertical FOV. I have some and can confirm that it looks like 90 degree to me. Their NCD600 only has 54 degree vertical. The FCD600 does a pretty decent job but not as well with night color as the NCD or Empiretech's full color 180 camera but are well worth...

    please help Dahua 5 mp PTZ ip cam

    From the photo, you should be able to use an ohm meter to check what pins correspond to each wire with the little bit of wiring remaining on that female RJ45 plug.

    Cellular cameras

    Nice! Would you mind reposting a link or the name/model as Amazon is giving me "page not found"

    Pretty Kitty, but what made him flinch?

    Another example where "more cameras, the better" paid off.

    Tree Install

    I would take advantage of that space in the box itself and see no need for using a weatherproof box. A dab of dielectric grease on the connections.

    Beginner question - POE 12V, 24V, 48V

    The camera has internal circuit board which converts the 12 from the pigtail to the needed 44-57 volts needed.

    Doubling Up CAT Cables

    I have used the simple 2 pc split/combine units and they are fair but sometimes can be flaky like @bp2008 mentioned. If I had it all to do again I would double pull my runs even if I thought those runs will never be needed.

    Remote/Wireless POE Switch?

    I did not mean for "old school" to be bad. I have lots of cameras running on the 10/100 systems and do not even have any gigabit units.

    Remote/Wireless POE Switch?

    The Nanostation LOCO M5 sold by BHP for $67. comes with the 24v passive Poe injector. The LOCO AC for $49. does not include the injector. The M5 is old school in that it has 10/100 Ethernet where the AC is gigabit.

    Zerotier help needed

    You may also try Tailscale. I use both but find it flawless. I have one account that I monitor where Zerotier frequently fails to connect where Tailscale never fails. Setup is a little easier and the devices do not need to be authorized. It provides an IP for each device that you set it up on...
