Building a system for blue iris. My options for storage are buy 3 WD purple 1tb drives for $150, or I can put 3 SSDs I already own in raid 1 to have 700GB. I'm leaning towards the free option because the build is costing me $1200 and thats not even including the 4 cameras I have to buy and the...

This forum seems like it's populated with folks who really know their stuff, so I'm hoping some of you kind people can point us in the right direction! We're looking into setting up security cameras at a number of our offices, and are having quite the time trying to navigate the landscape of...

Not exactly but ... Any good places to order equipment from? (amazon seems loaded with certain brands) AliExpress any good? I checked out some of the Dahua setups there. (they seem to be recommended here) I need a 4 camera PoE setup. Open air carport, back door slider on deck , 2nd floor...

After ton of reading and research for the past week, I am getting closer to a plan for my install. Orders have been placed and I need some guidance to see if there are any issue with this plan (Network Diagram) Anything in RED on the diagram I am not sure about the placement and /or issues I...

Hey Folks, Discovered this site about a month ago and finally joining and absorbing it all. In the process of setting up my own DIY system with a Netgear GS724TPS 24 port switch as my POE backbone and a Dell Optiplex SFF PC with a Core2 Quad 2.67 Ghz CPU and 8 GB of DDR3 RAM running Windows...

Hi all! I searching a good Dahua NVR with 8POE ports &H.265 important... There is: NVR4108HS-8P-4KS2 or NVR4108-8P-4KS2 NVR4208-8P-4KS2 NVR5208-8P-4KS2 I want use max. 8*4Mpixel Dahua cameras (so, not 4K, but better than 1080P) maybe.. 15fps is enough, with high bandwith as possible... I don't...

Hey Guys, Been reading this forum for years and recently got around to mostly finishing my Blue Iris build and Camera installs. The system runs great even with all the MP I am pushing. I hope this helps someone as I have had issues finding hard facts on a larger system. CPU (i7 Specs) sits...

Impressive what can happen when your PoE connection gets wet for about a day. Looks like the third conductor down from the top is half etched away from the PoE voltage. This pic was after I cleaned it up with alcohol and a q-tip, before the area was all black. This was a casual install just as...

So I have a Security Labs system. Unfortunately with them out of business, I have had to trouble shoot issues myself. So far I've done OK but now I'm stumped. I have an 8ch POE system with 8 cameras, (7 bullets and one dome). They are all of the same brand as the NVR system, so no hardware...

I got Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P NVR w/ POE running on the latest firmware, 1x DS-2CD2442FWD-IW(PoE 802.3af) and 3x DS-2CD4135FWD-IZ(PoE 802.3af) on the latest firmware. First time doing test I put everything together and managed to have all cameras working through NVR PoE ports. Then left it to...

All I want to do is connect a PoE enabled camera on our local network at work which will be used for remote monitoring of a robot in a machine. No recording needed. All of our switches in the building are PoE. Also I'm not worried about network security, since this will be on an isolated...

I've just found these Wifi Texas PoE 8w LED floodlights. Would they be compatible with the PoE switched built into the Hikvision NVR's They're a good price (1/10th of all other PoE illuminators I've seen) and have a pass through for the camera so don't take up a port or need an additional cable.

HI guys wondering if i can get some assistance. I currently have a hikvsion 7732 16c NVR box running 8 cameras. 6 via POE plugged directly into the box and 2 pluged in via a POE switch. im using my own ip addess 10.0.0.x and all the cameras seem to work fine. im now trying to add 2 more...

Hello, I see model DS-7616NI-E2/8P/A has 16 channels and 8 PoE ports: DS-7616NI-E2/16P-Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co. Ltd. How do you make use of the 16 channels when you have 8 network ports ? All others PoE models I could see have the same number of channels and PoE ports ? Thx.

Hello everyone I'm working on building a new set of PoE camera system, I have DS-2CD2145FWD x 3 , and also have the DS-7108N-SN/P. I can use the application iVMS-4200 to connect each camera without any issue. but the NVR doesn't seem to recongnize any of those cameras. what did I do wrong...

All, With your help, I’ve learned, experimented, etc. With cams hooked up temporarily, I could move them easily to dial in cam height/location/FOV. Temporarily: Cat6 cables strung out my 2nd floor office/shop, across the roof, thru garden, or down my inside hall. Now I’m ready to; -...

I have 2 Hikvision cameras that went out on me this month. The POE stopped working but I can put them into a 12v power supply and they work fine. These were in locations though where a 3-6ft power cord is not long enough. I have tried using a POE extender / injector and none of those work...

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 currently have a mix of cameras: 10 x Dahua IPC-HDBW4221E 1 x Hikvision DS-2CD2032F-I 1 x Hikvision DS-2CD2342WD-I I have 2 x 4TB WD Purple HDDs and over time I will be upgrading the cameras to 4K so it would be good to have a NVR capable of recording 4K (h.265 support would be a...

Hi folks I am having trouble finding one of my 2342 cams on my LAN after I initially trialled this on my DS-7608NI-I2-8P NVR. I also have another 3x of the 2342 cams that are working fine on my LAN via PoE switch - these are all viewable on NVR browser and VNS-4500. I have tried SADP but no...

Morning all, First post, so bear with me. I'm currently using a HIKVISION NVR with 6 cameras all set up, working perfectly with DDNS and port forwarding. I'm really happy with the setup - but I'm now concerned as there really isn't enough ambient light at the front of my property to provide a...

So, reading through threads on here has of course been useful and educational. Given the amount of issues I've seen with people trying to access their cameras through their NVRs (and the clear advice from nayr), I'm going to invest in a separate POE switch. I'm not a network engineer and this...

Hi, I have three CAT6 cables I had run to the front, side and back of my house as part of renovation work and before I go off and buy some IP cameras I just want to make sure there the cable will support power over ethernet. There is no reason why it wouldn't but I just want to be sure. So how...

I have a bunch of Hikvision cameras and want to get a Hikvision NVR. I need Alarm IO, but I don't need POE. I bought this NVR (NSN-616) from Nelly's and the specs are confusing: http://www.nellyssecurity.com/media/specsheets/hikvision/nvr/nsn-616.pdf It says the Alarm IO is optional. The one I...

So I've got a Hikvision DS-2CD2742FWD-IS. Worked fine for about 1 month but in the last day decided to stop working properly. - only thing I changed was the password on my NVR but all other 7 cams (same model) still work fine POE lights on NVR don't flash anymore - but on the camera the red...

Good day everyone. I am hoping that somebody on this list can help me with this problem. The female end of my Hikvision 2032F-I got corroded and needs to be changed. The wire colours are however, not the standard "Value" series colours. My colours are: Orange Yellow Green Purple Black Blue...

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...

Hello, I am interested in getting 6-8 Hikvision cameras and I am looking for a good switch to power them. Is the NETGEAR ProSAFE JGS516PE 16-Port Gigabit Rackmount PoE a good option? Thanks.

Hi everyone Hoping you can give some advice. I am looking to purchase H.265 compatible cameras and NVR. Are these any good? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hikvision-DS-2CD2145F-IS-4MP-Dome-Network-Camera-2-8mm-Audio-PoE-1080P-H-265-IR-/112055399188?hash=item1a1705b314:g:LN0AAOSwepJXVWEp or...
