Oh right ok. So I could use my POE NVR ports for the fixed cameras (only about 5w each) then patch cable out of one of the NVR ports to one of those mid point 60w injectors then out to the PTZ. I presume I wouldn't need the bulky injector reciever at the camera end since it's POE anyway. That...

Yeah 5220 is the one I'm leaning towards this morning. Do you run it POE? The spec sheet says max 32W but reading about POE+ it seems that the 802.3at standard only allows for up to 25w per port? The Hikvision NVR's don't list the max power per port either which adds to the confusion.

Morning all, I'm new to this forum (see noob introduction section) and I'm looking for help to choose a PTZ for the home CCTV network I want to build. My requirements are: PTZ IP camera, power over Ethernet, over 30m IR preferably 100m and good optical zoom. I thought I'd found what I was...

Hmm ok you're right maybe that wasn't the one I was looking at. The one I wanted could do IR for a long distance because I was surprised how large the distance was. I'll report back!

Yeah ok I'll check it out, I've only really been looking at Hikvision but only because I started looking at the reviews of the 4MP fixed domes then picked the rest from that brand too. So yeah I'll check out Dahua tommorow cheers. I want the PTZ from the start if possible as the rest is going...

I'm following this thread to as I'm about to build my own system and I'm including a POE PTZ cam with an NVR so I'm interested in how I can control my PTZ, I'd like to be able to watch it on the TV and control it with a physical joystick as opposed to software or ipad/iphone. I don't think the...

Hi all, I'm a relatively new IPCam user although I do have a cheap wireless Chinese bullet cam bolted to an old tool box which has a 12v car battery in it! I built this wireless portable CCTV solution to figure out if I had rats in living near my chickens and I certainly did! But now I'm...
