ethernet

I reconnected some Ethernet cables and now the camera fails to connect. I deleted the 1st camera thinking I should set up the camera again. Shouldn’t these port assignments match?

Ethernet was damaged checking to see if anyone has any info on the pinout to rejack it ? I have contacted Brickcom but no reply FYI this is for a personal project not for a client install.

I'm looking for some advice about pro's/con's of cat5e versus cat6 for long distance runs to IP cameras. The distance from the network room to the furthest camera is approximately 450 feet (137 meters). There are several IP cameras at this distance. We are organizing to use Dahua 4MP cameras...

Hi everyone I'm new to the forum. I have searched everywhere and still can't find a solution. I ordered an 8 camera Wifi cctv system a while ago (it's a chinese one). The only branding I could find on it says it's a Sinye Tech Wifi CCTV camera system. On the cameras itself it only says Model...

Hi, I notice on the live feed from my DH-SD49225T PTZ that it can be a bit jittery on large scenes with fast moving objects. Seems to be less so when the camera is zoomed in on a smaller area. Recorded playback seems to be smooth and so does live view on mobile devices. The DH-SD49225T IP PTZ...

Hi All, I just purchased a new POE 8CH Amcrest system with 4mp bullets. While ordering, they said they were sending Cat 5e cables. But, now that I'm installing them, I see that they only sent Cat 5 cables. Is there a big difference in video quality on the lower quality cables? Should I wait...

Hello everyone. I am looking to get an IP Camera for my home to be mounted outside. I live in Canada so it has to be cold resistant. I'd prefer PT but if the angle is wide enough stationary is fine. I have access to a plug which is feet away, so I'll use a powerline ethernet adapter for the...

Had an issue where our outdoor cameras ethernet port was sitting in water. The inside was all corroded. We thought 'no problem' we'll just cut it and attach a new end. We were unaware that there are only 6 wires and none of the colors match? We contacted Dahua and we are 17 days out of warranty...

Hello, Need a little help with cables. I need several 50-75 foot runs that will all be in the same general area. I am not too thrilled about putting plugs on my solid cat6 (have about 500ft available) so I was thinking of running solid cat 6 from the POE switch to a patch panel near the cameras...

Hi All, I've just signed up in the hope of receiving some help from you all. I have been hovering around here for quite a while so i have seen the knowledge that most of you bring. Now before i explain my issue, let me first start by saying that i was looking for a fairly basic and cost...

I want to coordinate the activity of a servomotor with the displacements of a camera. Therefore would like to listen to the Pelco-D frames sent by Ethernet to the camera by my USB port thanks to the USB-to-RS48 converter. Yet, for the moment, when I send a command by the local server (by...

I have two 1000' rolls of CAT6e cable that I purchased online and I am looking to get this CAT6e to all of my rooms and living areas in my home for both an IP camera (somewhere near the ceiling) as well as a box at normal floor level for other devices. So, this would be 2 cable runs leading to...

Hi I have been browsing the forum for a while now, and decided to join b/c I have some questions. I have a basic understanding of networking (set up my own home wifi, guest wifi, and port forwarding for the DLinks 930 + 932 that I have). I want to take the next step and move to a true security...

Hello I did not secure the Ethernet port of DS-2532F and during rain - water seeped into it. Seems there was spark, and my PoE switch shutdown the power(Its a Nortel switch). Unfortunately, the pins of the socket got consumed in the park. The camera powers up(12V) but doesnot respond to...

Hi I am not far off buying my first Hikvision POE camera. The model I would like is DS-2CD2632F-IS. I see the from photos of this camera for sale, there are 3 leads that come out it. One is obviously for the ethernet cable. However I would like to know what the other 2 are for? I guess one is...

Ok so I am planning on making a setup of IP cameras that I wish to record. I am going to have 8 IP cameras but I am going to record them using Ethernet cables directly plugged in rather then using the internet. I am wondering how I can record these as obviously my computer does not have 8...
