I got 14kw kohler installed for ~$7k. That was genset, transfer switch, electrical wiring, plumbing, and pad. Re: generator pad. I used an elevated pad filled w/ rocks to absorb vibrations. It's through the bedroom wall, 4 feet from my head, and I can barely hear it.

Damn it..... Seek and yee shall find... Apparently sometimes I act like I just arrived on this forum.. :p :rofl: https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/ipc-t5442t-ze-poe-pinout-tip-for-broken-connector-rj45.65340/post-696077 EDIT: Keystone is on and working with the A wiring...

I have a 5442 that started cutting in and out on BI. I unplugged it, then plugged in again, and not long after that it quit for good. One of the connectors on the camera ethernet plug corroded away-- it's GONE, and the plug is shot. SO, I am going to splice a keystone jack onto the wires in...

I had the same suspicions but according to the spec sheets of the both the 2mp and 4mp cameras the power requirements are pretty much the same. What bothers me aswell is that the yellow and green port lights on the NVR come on, albeit static instead of flickery like the others, and the NVR...

You are pushing the theoretical distance limits of POE and I suspect this camera needs just a little more juice than the 2MP you tried. We have had MANY people here after running cable and the tester shows it is fine but doesn't work. The consumer grade testers only test continuity. Unless you...

Thank you @fergenheimer and @tigerwillow1. The major cost will be the trenching operation and closing up, and this is going to be a one-time shot for me. Am inclined towards 2", because we all know how regret tastes later. Wire conduits of these lengths should be at least 1½” (in this case 1"...

I suggest you assign unique, static IP's to the camera in the same subnet as your BI's server's LAN and router's LAN/gateway but outside of your router's DHCP pool. This can be changed any time should you go with VLAN's later. Just be prepared to receive contradictory advice regarding static...

Thank you both for your responses.... I'm starting to make good progress. I now have several of the camera's showing up in the new switch and therefore, have been able to add them to Blue Iris. I was previously using GeoVision's NVR software. The cameras are assigned addresses via DHCP. I've...

As it relates to fibre there are many types of end connectors. Generally speaking, you would be using (LC) connectors. Since you have limited space in the conduit your choice has already been decided for you unless you had the skill, tools, and knowledge to split & join fibre. In this case you...

@Teken thanks for your suggestions. Fiber sounds promising and would be something new for me to work on. Thanks for the alert on grounding. About a year ago I got coax based internet service. They brought the service in at the opposite end of the house that electrical service enters, and thus...

Request input on expanding network wiring from inside the house to more of the site. Here is the situation, questions follow: Existing CamPoESwitch01lives in my “wiring center”, where all my wire home runs terminate (except electrical). CamPoESwitch02 will be around 75 wire-feet away, down a...

The definitions Chris linked above define Electrical Work as follows

My $0.02 from the peanut gallery: - conduit appears overkill to me. Camera itself just as easy to damage/rip off as cable, and weather/sunlight exposure seems at or near near zero under roof right above... so I don't get using conduit?? I am assuming a quality outdoor rated cable (not...

They do for fire and alarm systems. This may help clarify what some of the different licenses mean: https://www.mass.gov/doc/electricians-consumer-fact-sheet/download One could argue that installing cameras is basically the same as installing network wiring. Call up the state DOL (just don't...

Hello, I am currently taking on a project to put cameras on light poles surrounding our property. I have ordered 6 of the LAP’s (building is massive and that many is required to have line of sight to the nanostations) and I’ve got 10 nanostations (1 for each pole). I’ve been able to log into...

We must be on the right track the number of cameras has grown from the initial one cam to now three cams and counting. Now I am beginning to see a cam on the control pedestal, and one each on the pillar – maybe more. Initially I was camera-shy about a slew of cameras on poles that would make...

It would help a lot if you would provide: Camera make and model A clear, still image of the wiring, separated a bit show colors

A bit more playing with it and I'm able to get 16 IP cameras on this NVR without using any of the POE ports. So no harm, no foul :). I'm converting all of my wiring to POE and using the splitters to power the cameras that aren't made for POE. For $25 you can get an 8 port POE switch. This...

Lots of good information provided thus far so will only add a little more insight as it relates to other options. By far using several spotter cameras is the easiest option to assist a PTZ camera to track a person. The other alternative is to use external mounted sensors that connect to the...

I recall in my stint in Naval Air there was the unit "RCH"........well, you can read for yourself, the first entry: :highfive: https://www.allacronyms.com/RCH/military

Guess it’s better than getting my short hairs pulled! :lmao:

You can also pull things back half-a-hair* to avoid the stubs* and not ending up flush. ------------ * Precision wiring terms.

If you’re serious it comes down to money. If your budget doesn’t allow a large outlay in cash the best value is to use external accessory to obtain a microphone / speaker. Yes, having to enclose extra wiring and components is a PITA if there isn’t room for the same. Even with a POE splitter...

The plastic piece is called a (Load Bar). We only use these in our installations as noted it makes the insertion and correct wiring fool proof. :thumb: As others mentioned pass through connectors are great but are not to be used in exterior installations. As this is another entry point for...

I may be in your boat.....I have a 180 turret that was hooked to a Cisco POE switch that is 802.3af and im starting to think my wiring may not be my problem....ran cable twice....I think if a guy calculates the LED's and the the 2 cameras running inside.....it might need at 802.3AT switch or...

I use Klein pass-thru RJ45 connectors, and the Klein tool, for the same. Their website has a how-to-use video, and I found it very helpful and watched it multiple times. Prior to using the tool, I never had much luck with RJ45 connectors. Different outcome now. BTW, I got into RJ45 connectors...

Finally got a PTZ1A2M-25X installed. Still trying to figure it out. I tried some ONVIF stuff and ran into some issues but I haven't dedicated much time to it yet. Eventually will plan on wiring up a microphone and will try to have it look in various directions based on sound or based on...

I don’t exactly think a firmware update is going to fix my issue. It sure looks like I’m on a version of firmware that isn’t even listed —old. Kinda figure at this point what can it hurt. There certainly seem to be valuable improvements in the updated firmware over what I currently have. My...

Thanks for sharing. I guess you're an example of someone having pretty good SPD setup. I'd also love to hear of experiences of people with less than ideal setups. Hopefully living in places with lots of lightning and highly charged rain. To explain what I mean by highly charged rain consider...
