Hi. Then all you need is a BNC Connector 2 bnc baluns a coupler and a reel of cat5 cable
-
To much messing about ........ Your remote works away from your location So it works No point looking at local connection ..... But that also works . Your DDNS bounces all over the place Instead of using your DDNS acount when away but using same ISP USE your external IP and see if your still blocked For a dahua you should be using port 37777 for your app . You can change it all later but if you keep to makers direction it should be easier to setup

Hi. Will you be recording with your camera ....... Most DVRS have PTZ control which will work with your camera
-
RSTP. Nothing at all to do with your problem. Are you using a apple app to connect to your unit. Like you have already stated you have access from another ISP besides your own ..... So it must be working. You are right about the return path ......... Do you have a personal cloud over your devices

what is best for home cctv cat5e or 6 ..or RG59
tomcctv replied to skywalkerdigital's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Must of had a bad 25 years ........ Cat5 or 6 had no problem At all infact for distance cat5 will out run rg59. Also along with what has already been said cat5 or 6 makes for a much easier install than coax and give much better options over the years for a novice installer -

Overwhelmed By Hikvision Choices
tomcctv replied to MarcM's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Chinese COPY OF the hik then yes I would go dahua You only have to type Chinese hik in search bar of this forum to see the problems. 10 to 12 cameras with no warranty .......... This is the part I don't understand why people say it. Your buying cheap to save money ...... But then not protecting your investment. Also have you looked at licence costs ....... ... For empty property I would look at a NVR . Much easier to hide than a pc plus no licence fee -

tomcctv replied to MarcM's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Hi. ...... Chinese with english firmware is going to be a problem right from the start. Other is buying from ebay ..... Both give you no warranty. Then you have milestone ..... So pc needed ...... In an empty property I would look at dahua if in the UK Mini NVR and there domes ........ And cheaper than buying from China -
Hi. Your interests push towards cctv . But the information you are asking for is the same as network storage Lots of IT books about.

CCTV in Schools - Milestone or Dahua ?
tomcctv replied to alanjh1965's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Lots of government do ..... But also here in the UK ..... You can't just buy anything and fit .... For schools or public space ... It has to be to a standard Can't even use IR on a public space camera. But it's also down to quality ..... When was the last post on here about a bad axis or avigilon camera -
If your already moving a camera about in that location ..... Keep it real cheap and just buy a pan tilt head from ebay. Can find them from around $30

CCTV in Schools - Milestone or Dahua ?
tomcctv replied to alanjh1965's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
The other downside is the licence $12.000 just to run dahua ..... And that's every few years...... That's just a waste of money The more spent on cameras in the UK ... The more money the customer gets back. But like airports .... Schools .... Government buildings ....... Public space ...... You don't go with domestic cameras or software. -

One of the people might of had a samsung. Smartphone in there pocket or android. Nothing will be private soon. -
Sorry that's just more expensive junk Looking for cameras from China ..... You also need to question there spec. And if you think getting money back is easy it's not. I can guarantee that the demo pictures are not from that camera. I might be wrong so worth checking with buellwinkle It's listed as one of his demos ALSO I think we'll I know clouds move and change ......... So even that day and evening image is crap Buying cheap comes with the saying buy twice. It does save money looking at specs doing more homework both cameras listed above are bad spec cameras

Hi. Application does not justified a 500 dollar or 1000 dollar PTZ. But your going to waste $200 First the camera listed is not a PTZ .... It has no zoom lens And ignore there cloud service ...... Why have someone else watch your camera.

Dahua camera cable
tomcctv replied to brian89gp's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Hmm, this rg45 end looks like HIK Hi . AK. Yes the twist waterproof .... Been getting them on both dahua and hik the last few months -
If this is something you are being sold ..... Then don't buy That is an old card ..we used to fit them 5 years ago . If you do start to use .... First you need a standard monitor not wide screen Second you will need to set card for its lowest ..... Which is CIF That card will do D1 but at 32 will only do 3.5 fps And for a card that is still being sold between $500 to $800 it is just not worth it

Can old CAT5 cables handle IP Cameras POE?
tomcctv replied to jmjudy2's topic in Installation Help and Accessories
Hi. 9 times out of 10 cat5 or 6 testing a fault is found at rj45 plug. Even if you take your time it could even be a bad crimp set or very bad rj45 plugs Apart from having cable testers these are ideal to carry in tool box for cable testing. It rules out the rj45 plug on testing.
