    Ip Cameras and network traffic

    I'm planning on setting up an IPCAM system currently it will be small 6 cams, I will eventually expand to 26. My current network at my office is a 192.168.1.* network, would I also use this this same subnet for my cameras? or is it best practice to setup another subnet? If I put all cams on...

    IS SADP from Hik used for mulitple camera recordings?

    I just got my cams and I'm setting them up, I used SADP to configure I can set recordings and playback but I was expecting something different I expected to see multiple video windows open with the camera captures. Does SADP do this? Or would I need something like blue Iris, sorry I'm a newbie...

    nvr or computer 5 cams.

    I plan to install about 26 Hikvision 3 MP cams around my office and factory, but we may be going through some renos here so in the mean time I want to install about 5, since I will eventually use these same 5 when I add the extra 21 cams I'm hoping I can have a temporary nvr / computer solution...

    OEM vs Retail.

    Buying a 25 Cam system I've decided with Hik it seems to be the best bang for the buck, many of the selelrs I find sell as Hik but then when asked they state they are OEM. Which I've read relates to service and warranty. Does anyone have any insight on this? Would you buy OEM are they fake...

    Building Your Own NVR

    out of the 26 Cameras about 19 of them are for doors, and parking lots, so if these were set for motion, 3 cameras in detail (reception) and the remaining on the entrances to the parking lot. Would this take a significant strain off of the NVR? Or does the NVR record nonstop regardless of...

    Building Your Own NVR

    OK this clarifies some of my question so to build an NVR there really isn't any need for a compression card if the cameras do the h264, I won't be putting the cams in full res because it's not necessary maybe the cameras which I may try to catch license plates coming into the lot, but I know...

    Building Your Own NVR

    Thanks for the quick reply and I appreciate the advice, I'm familiar with networking, the networking part I should be ok with. Where I am confused is how the computer will accept the video, 26 cameras recording at 30fps at 3MP going into a single 10/1000 Nic, will it be sufficient, I'm...

    Building Your Own NVR

    So this network POE switch will have all the ports for the Camera and only 1 connection (Cat5/6) into the NVR? I'm assuming the POE switch must be a gigabyte switch? Also is the NIC on the server a special NIC to handle this data? What cards or hardware will process all the video to come in...

    Building Your Own NVR

    Considering building a NVR for 25-26 Cameras I'm a complete novice but a quick learner. Here are my concerns / questions. With 26 cameras do they all get wired into the NVR? if so which cards are recommended for the Server? Do thee Cards provide the PEO? How do I know which Cams are...
