Hi, a family member wants an existing camera replacing, but they would also like another camera adding to the same location... Im guessing due to the age of the previous one, its a BNC cable, Is there any way to add another camera and share the BNC cable some how?

Is there such thing? I need a button or system, where someone in the home presses a button, and it makes a few calls/texts... is there such thing?

That seems perfect! WHere are you based? I cant seem to find any over in the UK?

That was the only way i could think of too,,,however its quite a run, under a load of concrete and not sure it will be that easy, then if i loose the cable half way im completely screwed!

Hi Im looking for a system that i can make integrate with an epos system. i am aware of several over the pond in the USA, but not seen any in the UK. Can anyone point me in that direction?

Thanks for helpful post mate!

What are the differences between the 2? Any difference in quality? Cost? Or easiness to install? Thanks

gigabit networks on cheap cat5 ...... you should be at least cat5e or cat6 It is cat5e, sorry! The standard now is cat5e so I just refer to it as cat5!

305m yes. What's the difference then? It's been fine for gigabit network and CCTV so far? What's the best way to run cable for them then using cat5?

i would spend more on a roll of cat5 than £15 $26 Why? its all the same, ive installed dozens of networks with that stuff and its fine

Understood. I installed CCTV at work not long back, and used cat 5 and cheap baluns, this worked well. THe only problem i had was the psu and the dvr wernt that close, so i had a big mass of messy wire inbetween where i had to split the pairs in the cat5. WHats the way around this? Runinng 2 cat5? Also, ive seen some suggestions that power should be ran over 2 of the pairs, how and why would you do this? WIth regards to pricing, ive seen the shotgun cable (with power) for about £28+vat, where as i can get cat5 for £15, so yes it seems cheaper. THanks
