  1. Thanks boogieman! the word budget almost gave me a scare hahaha.... the mobo are awesome but im sure it will be over the client's budget. I will try to find those PIR type covert if they have it in ip or hd and definitely wall mount it instead. i just need to have an ok from the interior designer.. thank you!!
  2. Hey guys, wanted your input on this coffee shop im about to do an install area has low ceiling, if i jump a bit i can reach the ceiling, im bout 6 ft. the interior designer is bout to install pendant like designed lightings dangling from the ceiling. from render its about 24-27 inches dangling from the ceiling how do you even install cameras in this place? and do u know of any system hd or ip that has camera lenses that will cope with this glare?
  3. Hi thanks for the reply. This is just an artist perspective render and from the lightings plan, its a bunch of these lightings all over the room even on opposite sides. How bout wall mounting instead of ceiling mount ? Placing it lower than pendant lights? I just need a decent looking upscale camera hehe
  4. Hey guys, my client wants to install some kind of audio pickup in his hotel front desk... any suggestions on what audio accessory to use? I'm thinking something that can be put up front or under the desk instead of placing the sensor high up beside the camera... any thoughts or suggestions? thanks

    thanks guys for your recommendations! =)
  6. Hello Sirs! Have a prospective project that i want to close. Bear with me for my descriptions as i will try to go into the details. Basically i am surveying for your professional inputs on whats best to make this installation a success and (convenient for me and economical for client) haha! -Its a 40 floor residential condo wherein EACH floor is about 3.5 meters tall -Has some sort of a T-shaped walkway that spans about 60m for main walkway and 55m on adjacent walkway. -Will require about 6 (I'm thinking 4.0 -6.0mm cameras.) One on each end so thats 3, plus 2 back to backs on the middle of main walkway and 1 more on the middle part of the second walkway -Since its a condo, lights should be on 24/7 on walkways so cheaper if we use cameras without IR -On every floor there is a "utility room" where electricals of the tenants units are housed and will serve as the "access point" of the cabling from each floor down to the basement where the security office will be located. -Has 4 elevators and will require one camera each. -Cat5e will be used. Will be using EMT conduits. ANALOG SETUP 1). one cat5e to one camera? 6cat5e's/floor x 40 floors = 240 Cat5e's? or 2). one cat5e to 3 cameras? 2 cat5e for 6 cams/floor? 2 cat5e's x 40 floors = 80 Cat5e's 3). what do you suggest to use as power? Where to place power? On each floor's utility room or let it run to security office for centralized setup? 4). definitely be using baluns on every camera end. but how about the middle part? About every 80meter runs? and considering that the cat5 will be inside EMT conduits? 5). 240 cameras divided by 16ch = 15DVR's. are there rack mounts for DVRs? haha 6). 15 LCD or LED Monitors? whats the best size 32" or 42"? 7). if clients want to view them remotely, will need to open 15 ports?! IP SETUP 1). one cat5e to one camera? 6cat5e's/floor x 40 floors = 240 Cat5e's? or 2). one cat5e to one camera on every floor but put a switch hub on every utility room? so instead of 6 wires only 1 will pass through the floors ? 3). will i still need baluns in the middle parts of the cat5 if there is switch hub on every floor? 4). is it "safe" to run CAT5 on elevator camera? 4). do i still need NVR if will be using NAS? or it depends on brand of IP Camera? Hope you guys can share me your inputs on this ambitious project of mine =)
