    Wireless video links

    Thanks, I think your suggestion of going to IP based cameras is a good one. However, at the receiving end of the radio links, what should I use to convert the incoming IP based video to analog video for inputting to my existing DVR's?
  2. I am in charge of a legacy video network that is comprised of a number of analog cameras at several locations many miles apart. Each camera feeds a Pelco Net300T, the ethernet output from that is transported through 5.8 GHz radios to a central location where all of the incoming ethernet streams are routed to Pelco Net300R's, the converted video then goes to a DVR along with a number of local cameras. This setup was put together more than 12 years ago and worked well for a long time, but recently I have had more and more issues with the Pelco equipment not connecting. A further issue with the Pelco units is I can no longer program them. Unlike 12 years ago there are now many more choices of video conversion products from a number of suppliers, it's clearly now time to replace the Pelco stuff, my question is, does anyone have a recommendation for video encoders & decoders that have been proven to work reliably over a wireless network?
  3. I still have a few NET300R's and NET300T's running on a network. They continue to work OK but I have a few additional units in storage at the shop that I cannot reconfigure. For example I can access a NET300R with a laptop running Windows 7 through an ethernet cable, I can see the General Setup page no problem, but if I click on any of the subpages such as Network Setup or Video Decoder Settings, it brings up a page that is mostly blank, the area where I used to see configuration and other data is just blank. I used to be able to access these with an older laptop running XP. Has anyone seen this particular issue? I can send a screen shot if someone wants to see what I'm seeing. Terry
