Hi. You need to run Rg59 and not 6 for your camera

You may try and confirm it. To me, they would show the same picture. Showing different cameras in different configurations would cost a lot bandwidth. So in general, not allowed by its chip set makers. Why is every post about chip sets ?.....?? And why talk bandwidth . When it has nothing to do with this post . You have a few options in not bought your dvr Look for units that have a programmable spot out Or look for dvrs or cards that have a local cms built in Aver units all have 3 outputs all programmable Geo has two

Hi. 3k is a good budget and I don't think you will reach that amount You most expensive will be the ptz ..... The dahua 2mp with IR will do what you need and good distance day and night Your othe 7 cameras can be 2mp dome or bulit also dahua and run Poe from the nvr making your system plug and play ... Except for ptz run that on its own power supply

Hi being a IT PRO you should know how to do a reliable local network You are only talking 100 m your switch idea is right but I would group an area and run back to recording with each switch cable Over your 100m there are some Poe plus data daisy chain cameras out now 1st camera 100m and daisy upto 300m

Which is why I asked for a link to your baluns ..... There are God and bad baluns and ....... Baluns that are sold as baluns but are not How have you run the power ? How have you split video and power It can be a long guessing game if you don't want to answer questions

Hi. KVM HDMI will do what you need ...... Don't buy cheap And on some extenders you will need two cat cables

i dont think its the baluns, because half of the system works fine. Well we don't know what type you used or if they are baluns

Hi. Last update for that dvr was 2007 ...... .. Is this an installed unit or are you just trying to get it working ? You might be better with a new dvr as that pano OS low frame rate and your not going to have remote viewing on modern equipment

Hi. TP link do a 5 way switch for around $15 Add more cameras as needed

Hi. As well as DVR being powered down was the power to the cameras switched off ? And have you switched that back on

Hi. I would make it visible .... Or all your going to be doing is still cleaning up mess. Don't just see your investment as a dog crap monitor see it as protecting your car at night .. Who comes on your drive IP camera with SD card will do what you need

Can you post a pic of your baluns

Hi. Very well explained will help lots of people with BT hubs. As far as static IP goes business static IP is now free and in most cases now they don't change with business accounts

Hi. This is a problem with cheap cameras were either camera cable or inside the camera both power neutral and video neutral are connected together.

Another post taken of topic The op came on for advice and he did state change DVR ONLY SO ALL ABOVE IS MEANINGLESS

Why not post your reply instead of redirecting

Hi. Matbbk Yes your old lg is out of date ..... Like you have said replace dvr first with a hybrid and then take time to upgrade to IP Take a look at the avermedia

Hi. I would not go 16 Poe nvr in a store application

So analog has never been able to identify anyone ?

Does it matter about the format. 69 years of analog and still used today it still works and does the job and still sold ..... In some cases analog can do a better job I.e plate capture IP HD and rest .... Yes better image but all still works

Not really. If systemQ, for example, had anywhere near the amount of bad reviews that Ali and ebay had, I wouldn't touch them with bargepole. But like you say, each to their own. Not used system q in years ..... Even when spending 1000s with them got let down

A hybrid would be your best option .... Use your existing cameras and add IP later and run both Aver or dahua units

Voltage is not your problem it's your amps Your camera might only be 1amp ..... But you will need 2 to 3 amp for that distance ..... And also take into account IR

Hi do you get the screen up on dvr once it starts ??? Alarm could also mean camera loss ..... As in no power to cameras have you checked your camera power supply
