    NVR Camera Ports

    How does putting the NVR into bridge mode help? I read your thread but don't really understand why it would matter? Are you saying that if you assign the IP Address per camera then the port on the NVR doesn't matter?

    NVR Camera Ports

    Kind of a tangent, but how did you mount the NVR? Would love to put it on the wall, but the only points I see are used by the HDD's screws....

    NVR Camera Ports

    So, as an update, I got my NVR today and plugged things in. Turns out the port seems to assign the IP Address, I can swap camera 1 and 3 in ports 3 and 1 respectively and whatever was showing as camera 1 in port one shows as camera 3 in port three. So the camera doesn't seem to have any memory...

    NVR Camera Ports

    I plan to set up the cameras with the NVR on my bench and then make sure the installers know which camera is which when they install.

    NVR Camera Ports

    OK, so the port it is first plugged into is remembered, even if I plug camera one into port one, then swap it to port 6, it will still show up as port one on the NVR. That's going to make installation a lot more fun :)

    NVR Camera Ports

    Getting a new NVR and 8 cameras and I've read this: ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch Curious to know if I plug in camera one into port one, is it always assigned port one from then on out? Or does the port number change as I swap cameras into different ports...

    Video Detection Issues

    I could do that, but what I was hoping for was a way when looking at the detect motion overlay that it would flash or something telling me which portion of the overlay was causing the motion detect. I don't really see a point of recording 24/7 and motion detection, just do one or the other and...

    I could record continuously, but then my SD card would fill up fast with 22 hours of not much happening that I care about...Then it gets really hard to tell when something happened....

    Video Detection Issues

    I've got three Amcrest cameras that are set to record on motion, however the motion of the three camers i on water, which any wave action seems to trigger recording, even when there are no boarts making the waves, or the boats have long since passed. Is there a way when watching a recording to...

    By stright I meant right from the switch into the device. Without a need for an adapter of any kind. Like how a camera can be plugged in directly from a POE switch...

    Do you have a link to the outdoor model, if all it is is an inline converter, that would be very useful to me

    Point to Point Wireless Bridge Recomendations

    Thank you, that is what I had read in the wiki, but couldn't figure out why the Ubiquii would allow both 48V 802.3af and the 24V passive, sounds like it is a rareity for them to be able to accept both...

    That makes sense. Would have to hide the SSID so no one else go on it, but that would work.

    Doesn't that bring issues of don't use a IP camera over wifi? Or is it only if the camera itself is connecting via wifi?

    Point to Point Wireless Bridge Recomendations

    In this instance, what does Passive POE matter if it powers the device from a POE switch? If they are 802.3AF then it should be able to downgrade the power from the 48V of 802.3AF to the 24V the unit needs to power? Isn't it similar to how a 802.3AF camera can work from a straight POE switch...

    Point to Point Wireless Bridge Recomendations

    No worries at all, you have been very helpful. Was hoping to get a standard 808.3af so I could just plug in a POE cable and be good to go, but doesn't look like that is the case :(

    Trying to keep it as simple as possible. If I can use standard POE protocol and only need one cable connected from the transmitter and receiver to a POE type switch, then that simplifies things greatly...

    Point to Point Wireless Bridge Recomendations

    No worries. Just wanted to confirm that I'm looking for standard POE 802.11F or whatever the standard is so that I don't need a power injector at the point of transmission, I can run it from a POE NVR. Sounds like Mikrotik SXTsq 5 AC wouldn't work for me, but would the ones you suggested?

    Point to Point Wireless Bridge Recomendations

    There is a building with power between where the pole will be for the receiving transmitter and where the camera will be. Both camera and receiver will connect via RJ45 to the POE switch and get power. The main issue I'm having is getting from the NVR to the far out camera, because I have to...

    Saw this but was concerned with only one Ethernet port? So it would have to go into a POE switch.
