So you are saying the IPC-T5442TM-AS has infrared capabilities, and since I do not want to run white LEDs then the IPC-T5442TM-AS is what I need.

I need to order a camera and see at Andy's site that the IPC-T5442TM-AS and IPC-T5442TM-AS-LED are almost the same cost. If the cost difference is not an issue what criteria should I use to select one over the other?

Is a particular crimp tool required or will a tool for regular Cat 5 connectors work with these connectors?

Changing the laptop ip address into the 192.168.1.x network worked. Thanks!

When I try to initialize a IPC-T2431T-AS camera with the ConfigTool (downloaded today) it fails and says 'network error, maybe timeout'. My network setup: Netgear Router [192.168.0.1] <--> Ethernet Switch <--> PoE+ Switch ConfigTool is run on a laptop [192.168.0.120] cabled to the Ethernet...

On Amazon the EmpireTech listed IPC-T5541H-AS-PV 2.8mm is now unavailable. It's available on AliExpress from Empire Technology (I assume this is also from Andy). Will it be available on Amazon soon, or should I order via AliExpress? And will you get more stock if you sell the two you have at...

Customer answers and questions took care of the ONVIF question.

Concerning at Andy's Amazon store the IPC-T2431T-AS 2.8mm camera: I am thinking of getting this camera to start getting experience with setting up a camera with Blue Iris. Is it an ONVIF compatible camera, and fully compatible with Blue Iris? If this camera is wall mounted outside like with...

I like the recommendation above to purchase a varifocal camera like the IPC-T5442T-ZE to test for camera location requirements. Seems to me I would need to use a Windows laptop with Blue Iris, a PoE injector or switch, and hold the camera - all near to the test location. I searched Ipcamtalk and...

The IR Illuminator link on the Wiki doesn't work.

What is recommended for long running PoE ethernet cables through attics and outside under the roof? UV rated? And is shielded cable recommended? Solid wire vs stranded? Cat 5e good enough for cameras, or Cat 6 or better?

I found a 2022 "EmpireTech Spring Sales.pdf" that shows the IPC-T5442T-ZE discounted to 169.99 I see a higher price using its link to Amazon. Is that sale still going?

At his amazon store I found the EmpireTech PFB203W White Water-Proof Wall Mount Bracket . Will it support the IPC-T5442T-ZE camera? and any other turret cameras in your store? I did not find it in the store here.

In your store there are only a couple of cameras that explicitly are described with AI. Do you have any articles on AI vs non-AI cameras and Blue Iris? If I have question about your store cameras or accessories should I continue to ask here, or what other forum?
