WoW ... learned alot from this post.. Thanks a lot. So the question i have for you guys is then what type of premium cable do you use? Also what about power, can power be ran to at least 600' from the PDU? Thanks

so what do you use? what DVR card? What kind of Dome 480 tvl do you use? ... something below 150? Thanks

I believe max run would be 400' - 500'. Well if i can run the power locally, that would be the best but, lets take the worst into account. Are there any good priced baluns out there? ... ive compared Cat5e + baluns (32) and RG59 coax ... both 3 x 1000' spool and the siamese wins by a lot. However if you use Cat5e, then in the future you can use IP based. Whats your take?

Hey guys, Building a new system for a hotel. 16 cams. I was thinking 480/480 (might change if the price is high) and definitely need Web View/Remote View. So question is geovision, avermedia or a dedicated DVR system? I have always use geovision, and i like them, but since the price of this gig will be high, i want to cut down some places. FYI: Cams: C420MDVAIDC ... Arm Electronics. google them and visit page 17. Remember i need the varifocal because the hallways of the hotel are long so i need to focus them. btw, open to suggestions. Another question. RG59 (siamese) or Cat 5e with baluns? PS: open to suggestions / criticism. Thanks

Hey guys, quick q.. What is the maximum length a RG 59 and Cat 5e cable can transmit analog signal from the camera before it needs to be repeated? 16 Cams going into a hotel. Thanks

yea u did exactly the same thing as we did.. exact without the sharp camera.. um basically those cameras are alright...we liek the nuvico's but are planning to try new things like http://www.armelectronics.com/ http://www.pelco.com/ other stuff GE is good ...as i heard.. read around

Lan is pretty fast..actually its good stuff ..

medium i guess. 480 is considered high for color ... anything beyond that is great resolution 380 is like default

I dont think it works but you can check this out List of computers tested with Geovision cards http://www.polvision.com.pl/files.asp?lang=en&id=85&find={datasheets}

that actually looks great thrugh online... must llok great locally then.. also can you post a sample video? btw what cameras did you use?

will do that sir ..

o yea btw .. i forgot to mention that before they put in the UPS the image qualty was the same..

alrigt rory .. how do you know if the UPS has AVR or power conditioning ...because the link that you gave doesnt say AVR or power conditioning anywhere

thanks alot another thing is that ... i spoke with rory and he HELPED A LOT... but im asking other people on the forums to.. are there other setting in the geovision software to change so i can get bette picture then?

damn i didnt even know that.. um can you point me to the right direction as in which UPS to choose from ? for CCTV? and where to buy them?
