Thank you kindly for the information, but I am having trouble finding a camera at a reasonable price, what do think of the JVC tk-c1480be and the tk-c9200e cameras would these be suitable. Colin

I do not know the make of my existing cameras can only tell you, they have a sony 1/3ccd 600tvl 2.8-12mm lens and 78 led, which covers the ground in front of my property and entrance gate, I am trying to get a really good night vision camera, we have already had an intruder so this why. I have placed a bid on Ebay for a JVC TK-C1480be box camera, what do think of that camera

I would like to shorten a premade cable which at the moment has BNC plugs each end and 2.1 plugs as well (not coaxial size cable ie RG59), could i cut the cable at the required length and then fit a BNC balun, should i fit a balun both ends or should i use a soldered BNC plug on the end i cut. Advise from anybody would be most helpful

i am having trouble sorting out how to look at my cctv system on line, i thing my router is the problem, but i need some to tell me. The router is a ECHO life HG520b supplied by Talktalk, i am unable to find a port in this router and to me this is the problem

Thank you Sector Security for your information so far, my question is the information you have given me for domestic use which i am or for a company with say a fixed IP address

I have a camera at each end of my garage and one in my car port, one of the garage camera and the car port camera get there 12 volt supply from the same s/socket, the other garage camera gets its supply from the garage, this camera at night shows the interference badly and slightly on the other 2, i have fitted ground loop isolators to all the cameras, which has not solved the situation. Has anybody an ideas how to get rid of the interference, would suppling the faulty camera with the same 12 volt supply as the others solve the problems

If a method of working works and gives a good result who is to say it's wrong? Single boxed power supply and distribution boards are popular because of their convenience but get a good one if you get one as they can develop faults. The Dantech PSU's are very affordable and have the benefit of locating all the power supply lines and fuses at one single location and they also all share a single potential to earth. This is helpful in avoiding ground loops but not the whole answer. Sometimes and it's happened to me, a cheap boxed power supply goes faulty (or is faulty out of the box) and can CREATE interference like rolling lines If you are suffering rolling lines across all channels and using a single power supply, the power supply is an item you should check first. Conversely if you are using several power supplies, a single one can be faulty and cause all the other channels to display a fault, but there's more to check out. It's not an easy fault to remove and takes trial and error, but the point is it's not always a earth loop.

do you mean i have to get the 12volt supply for all 3 cameras from the same supply socket, via say the Dantech distribution board

I have inch wide bands that move up the screen which is more prominent at night the other two have the interference but not as bad, but if i disconnect the offending camera by switching off the supply to it,then the other two are fine
