CC, you may be my new best friend.
That diagram mimics the install I'm looking for.
It saves me time and money as I'll need fewer VTNS, they don't need to be cascaded so no 50m limit with associated install costs (getting power to switches etc) and, bonus bingo, I can use the existing network we installed a few weeks back for the CCTV.
Because I'm a curious guy, not that it has too many practical uses, but do you think this idea could be extended to allow a remote VTO-VTH setup?
If it's all IP protocol then I see no technical reason this couldn't work, it works for IPCam/NVR configs e.g. an NVR can be configured to access an IPC over the internet, so in theory a VTH should be able to remotely access a VTO, with the correct port forwarding etc.
As I say, not much practical use as if you wanted to view the VTO remotely you'd just pull up the app on your smart device, but, as I said, I'm a curious guy.
Thank you again, I can now order the kit I need in confidence.
1) as I only have 1 VTH connected, I cannot comment. What I would suggest is to configure the VTO on your NVR, and let him take "snapshots", then you'll grab faces even before (or without) having to press the buttons.Hi @catcamstar i have a couple of questions about intercom system.
1-when i started i set it to take snapshot when someone ring at the door and it was ok, now i have just noticed that it isn't working (it takes pictures only manually).
I have set "auto capture" ON in the main vth (the one with sd card) and enabled "auto snapshot" in the vth. Did i forget something else? do i have to set auto-capture ON even in the slaves vth?
2- Since i have 2 free ports in the vtns do you know if it's possible to connect another ip camera and make it works with the others that i have connected to a nvr (which is in the same net of the intercom)?
I'm not sure the vtns provides 24v. Maybe you got confused with the input voltage. Since the vth and vto input is 12V the vtns output must be 12v as well.1) as I only have 1 VTH connected, I cannot comment.

2) if I read the specs right, the VTNS provides 24v Passive PoE outputs, which is double of the normal PoE (like my HFW, it needs DC12V, PoE (802.3af)(Class 0)). My electrical engineering classes are from looooong time ago, you could try to "downscale" to the POE-standard (af) by cutting the 24V into 12V, but I wouldn't risk burning the cam.
Hope this helps!

Hi
Any reseller contact to get the intercom ?
I already contact Andy, but he doesn't sell it anymore
@EMPIRETECANDY can you please confirm if you can get this as i am after the same setup.
Can i use this without the POE switch, just wondering whether the NVR POE can power this?
Two wires is intended to be used as replacement of a traditional intercom leaving same cables.does anyone what is the 2 wire monitor and how is it different to the other version?
What is the difference with the VTH 5421 which includes wifi, i guess we can also connect via cable/poe if needed?
I am currently thinking of getting a 10" monitor and the price difference between VTH1660 and VTH5421 is nothing. I like the white colour with VTH5421 but not sure if it would work the same way as in this thread as i need to connect all using UTP cabling and not wireless.
