Hi, first post

I have bought a few Philips observation cameras cheap from Ebay to have a play (I've already built a PC based camera recording system for my office) but would like to have something else to mess around with over the next few months!

The model number of the cameras are : VCM7C130/00T. They have a 24vDC input at 2.5W (presumably through the only connector at the rear, an RJ11 socket?)

What else would I need to get these working?

Trying to post a pic but I don't think I have enough posts

Thanks for any help, as I said they were pretty cheap as a job lot on Ebay so if I can't get them to work, it's not the end of the world...

regards, Allzo

They are only sold as part of a complete system which includes the monitor. The monitor itself provides the camera power in those types of systems and they typically use 2-pair twisted-pair cable to connect the camera to the monitor. One pair is for power and the second pair is for video.

Here are the camera's specs:

VCM7D130/00T, Eazeo Digital Color Camera
1/4-inch minidome camera with 3 mm integrated lens, PAL

Here is a link to the systems that use those cameras:
