You know it is kinda like COVID, it is better to do your own research then listen to someone's opinion... I know many try to follow Warren Buffet and those who are rich but I believe most of what they are doing does not apply to us. Worked for a company where we were replacing old CAT3 cable to...

Not surprised. Amazon's a rough place to buy cable from.

Not familiar with Voltive but it looks OK. Monoprice is a great place to buy cable. If you buy the Klein termination tool (Home Depot) and pass through connectors it is easy to learn to terminate your own cables. If I can do it anyone can :rofl: Your link is broken for me, cleaned up...

Don't know about your fire codes but typically in the UK people woul;d use silicon sealant to waterproof around cables on the outside, and often the in. You can also buy cable entry covers to make internal entry points neater eg...

Wow the "likes" poured in, wasn't expecting that many thanks everyone glad you enjoyed it. Line of sight is problematic from here to that outlet, no clear shot. Tried wireless from that outlet to where cam 1 is in the field but still needed power out at the cameras location. Had 12v power...

You could also use a dedicated RF link to get to that outlet. That would remove at least that part of the cable The best way to buy cable is in bulk, 500 or 1000 feet. If you're running it outside make sure it is rated for outside, UV rated.

Yea I have to come up with a final plain and then buy cable. The cable I bought cost almost as much as the camera did, knowing what distance I'd be running I didn't buy cheap cable. One large dead limb, one fairly good size tree falls....I gotta buy and string a new cable. Having to do 2 or 3...

something sebastian knows but maybe forgot to toss out there... SHIELDED cable is no fun at all to put through a house structure. Especially Cat7, which I've never touched. Heck...Cat6e shielded is like pulling stiff coaxial cable. With all those bends and corners and getting around HVAC or...

I chose those lens after testing with a varifocal and to get maximum night performance, We're out in the rural area of southern NJ and while there is a street light about 200 feet away, there's not a whole lot of light. Night time coverage is a key factor, at least to me. I use external IR...

@spe99 , In addition to using CMR rated cable for in walls, attics, crawl spaces & between floors as advised by @biggen , insure the CAT-5e or CAT-6 is solid (not stranded) copper (not CCA, Copper Clad Aluminum). If exposed directly to the elements (sunlight, rain, etc.), use outdoor-rated...

Probably not very easily. I've bought 5,000 foot rolls of #14 solid copper THW but never cables longer than 1,000 feet Nothing wrong with that if done properly. BUT......Installing cables that distance would be a huge chore and protecting the cables (as in conduit) even bigger. I can't even...

It's going to be really difficult. Can you actually buy cable easily at that length?. I wouldn't be joining cables. I'd also take the epoe specs with a grain of salt, they would probably only apply in ideal world conditions. You would also need to look at very low powered Poe cameras, no IR etc

i believe I want cat 6 for a new surveillance system, around 8 cameras. I do intend to run it around 200 ft or so outside. Mostly around the house but also to a stand alone garage. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Great place. Regarding their CAT-6 RJ-45 connectors, I like their 2 piece. You may prefer the pass-thru type with appropriate crimper, as many on this forum give them high praise. I cannot comment on those. The camera's pigtail MUST be protected from element (moisture and sunlight). If you want...

Nope you are correct...this is probably the area I did the least amount of research on. Looks like I have more to learn. Thank you for your reply...I had planned to have a dedicated computer, an older one, but looks like I might need to look into something newer. It looks like the place to buy...

The price of the cameras is the price of the cameras, they dont change based on a random budget. As explained, it is within you budget even with a pc. You dont need to build anything. Building is for suckers. You can buy an hp 8300 i5-3570 for 100 bux that will run your load with zero issues

My upload speed is 1.57 Mbps according to M-Lab. Does Andy have any discounts currently to put 4 of these cameras within my budget? I still have to build a media PC and buy cable and anything else I may need for the setup.

That cable's fine. If you buy cable from someone on nextdoor or craigslist, bring along a cable tester.

I have 16 cameras in my stables and paddocks. As others have said, you can use Cat-5e, but I would recommend Cat6 so you never have to pull cable again. What custom lengths are you looking for in the cable? I've found reasonable "custom" cables (say, 100', 150', 200') on amazon. Of course, the...

Actually the cable looks to be a quality cable... tested out fine...

DO NOT BUY cable like Zactron that is not known....Cable is one of the CHEAPEST components of a system but the most time consuming to replace and diagnose if there is an issue. Stick with known suppliers of quality cable.

Also, taking this discussion one step further, I would love to be able to offer my tenants fast high speed wireless internet. This space seems to be rife with inefficiency and bad information. Do you have guys have any thoughts on this? My alternative is to bulk-buy cable from Comcast...

Never EVER buy cable on ali or similar sites...buy from a trusted retailer...also you dont want flat cable, the copper is thinner...

You don't want that flat stuff, it won't work properly. Myself, I wouldn't buy cable from China. See this: 500FT Cat6 Bulk Bare Copper Ethernet Network Cable UTP, Solid, Riser Rated (CMR), 500MHz, 23AWG, Blue - Monoprice.com

This cannot be emphasized enough. I am even skeptical about Monoprice as I come from an industry that only accepts Belden. But I have been influenced by others here to trust Monoprice. Of all the places to save a buck, this ain't one. I would never buy cable on Ali.

No..im not dumb enough to buy cable that cannot be properly tested without spending money on a lab from an unknown seller on ali...The WORST thing you can do is run subpar cable...causes all sorts of unexplained issues, and more importantly lots of work to rewire... and you have not tested it...

Hey Fenderman, Have you used or tested this brand of Ethernet cables?

very bad idea to buy cable direct from china....who knows wft they are making it out of..

Yeah, that's what i thought originally too. The cable that inputs to the switches is >20 ft. It operates the switches fine. If I take that cable and remove it from the switch and plug directly into the IP cam it won't work! So it drives the switch but not the cam. This is two different cables...
