I was lucky and found IPCamTalk and was able to spend the time to read and learn. One of the first things I learned was Andy is the guy that could hook you up on the latest technology quickly and affordably. The dilemma I now faced was what cameras and NVR would be used for the unusual setup/conditions at the sight, meaning needing 600 feet of night vision with no man-made lights in the area, long runs of RG6, and wanting the latest AI out there. So, I reached out to Andy and sent him a list of the installation requirements (Camera to DVR lengths for cable runs, FOV and distance at night needed, etc). Andy sent me a list of what he would suggest:
2 SD6AL433XA-HNR Laser PTZs
8 IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E Bullet Cams
2 Hi-PoE Adapter for the 2 SD6AL433XA-HNR
1 NVR5216-16P-I AI NVR
Along with Junction Boxes for each camera
I checked out Andy's suggestions and said this would be perfect to start with and 5 minutes later money was sent via PayPal and 3 days later the cameras were delivered to the east coast of the US. I checked the packaging on each camera and it was perfect, and now that half of the cameras are installed (second half tomorrow), I can say, Andy made the perfect selection for the application. I could not be happier with Andy's customer service, knowledge of his products, and attention to detail, it was a true pleasure to work with a professional like Andy.
Now the bad news....I love the PTZs, I think I'm addicted, but, unwilling to go to meetings, Momma always said "I never liked a quiter". I would love to find an 8 MP PTZ that sees as well at night as the 433XA's do out at 600 feet.
Thank you Andy and thanks to all who take the time to post on IPCamTalk, looking forward to reading many more.
