Survtech, Thanks for the input. I have another building I service and they have 18/2 for the elevator camera. It seems to work, but has a little noise every time the car begins moving. Has anyone ever used shielded cable for this type of installation. Max distance, 200 feet. Seth

Looks like they have an affordable 16 ch DVR, and a full range of IP stuff. My distributor is trying to get me to buy some of their low end IR cameras for a current job. I dunno, it looks like CNB, so why not just buy CNB? http://www.idview.com

Is it possible to stream one channel of an IP camera(looking at ACTi TCM-3411) to the NVR, and have one channel either stream video to a website, or be accessible via Internet Explorer or iPhone/Android? I have a project at a condo building, and they want to record the front door camera, yet have a web login to view live images. Sorry if this is rudimentary, but I have never done this before. Thanks for any help, Seth

Has anyone ever used the IPRG59 from Speco Tech? Looks like a passive transmitter for 10 base T ethernet over Coax. http://specotech.com/Catalog/?action=viewprod&catid=309&prodID=1006 Since 10baseT is 10 Mbps, and an ACTI ACM 3401 is up to 3 Mbps, this would work, right? I know that any higher streaming rate would not work, but in theory... If you think that this product is garbage, or awesome, please let me know. Thanks, Seth

That is just great. I would turn that video over to the police. Ha!

AK357, do you know if that component is sold through distribution, or from an online vendor(preferably a sponsor of this site of course.)? Their "Where to buy" link leaves much to be desired.

That would surely work for a better camera. Now how do I hide it in the dome housing?

I am thinking of using it to upgrade the camera on a apartment building's front door. The 480 TVL camera there is OK, but a 1 megapixel camera woud capture a larger image. Plus, the customer is already used to the low frame rate ACTI's ACM series provides, due to their old DVR.

Thank you for the response. That is what I thought it meant, but I have never set it up. I will pick up a Vivotek to try out, as it looks relatively inexpensive. Lets see what I find out.
