    DC 24V power connector for a DH-SD5A445XA-HNR

    Hi everyone! I'm preparing a power cable for a DH-SD5A445XA-HNR camera that’s currently installed in a remote location. Previously, I powered it via PoE, but that's no longer an option. I’ve confirmed that the camera requires a 24V DC power supply, but I’m unsure how to connect the power cable...

    POE NVR not providing power to devices

    PoE switch *powered* by PoE — does such a thing exist?

    This isn't a BI question per se, but that's what I use for all three of my cams (power use lol) — hopefully soon to be four — and couldn't think of anywhere else to ask this. So — I have a hardware/power issue. The short of it is: Two of the three cameras (and if possible, three or four of...

    DC input as output when utilizing POE?

    i have noticed that when utilizing POE, if you test probe the DC input (be it barrel jack or wires depending on camera) you can measure voltage on it with a voltmeter. is it possible to use the DC input as a power source when utilizing POE instead of a power adapter? what kind of current...

    Saving a little power by writing to SSD first?

    Hi, My new set-up storage-wise consists of a 128GB SSD and a 2TB WD Purple HDD, and currently 2 cameras (about 6MP in total) recording continuously. I've read on here (and it seems logical), that there's no performance gain in writing video to the SSD first, so I just used that for system disk...

    Low Power Consumption PC-Based NVR?

    Hello! I like the benefits/pros/flexibility of a PC-based NVR, however, what I don't like is the cost to run a PC 24x7 (e.g., https://www.google.com/#q=how+much+does+it+cost+to+run+my+computer+24x7). Do you have any thoughts or experience in PC hardware set ups, with a focus on low power...

    Has anyone found a work around to forcing the camera to stop reverting back to 30 minutes for DST time bias on power reset? I have a bunch of different model cameras that do this and it doesnt seem to always happen.
