    hybrid nvr/dvr

    the wavestore NVRs are good at this.. The NVR is IP based, the DVR has a stretch card which will accept it.

    Recommendations for good 1080p DVRs

    the wavestore NVRs come with 'card' which does offer hdsdi support. cant remember what but calling them might be a start triski

    New IP Camera system we installed

    Whilst I am the same, exposed cable is a big security risk in itself. All it takes is a sharp bolt cutter or less to cut the cable and you have immediately lost your video feed. (Just saying)

    Alternatives for large Analog CCTV System

    if it does specify analog - which in this day and age is insane.. Then you could get an encoder/ balun to fibre and send it across an entire building easily.. I would suggest just using IP from the get go. Axis encoders are probably best, then distribute video to the network, and if need be use fibre. A mall is likely to have fibre/ ethernet infrastructure, A colleague does a lot of work in South America. We are quite big in that region triski

    Beyond Property Surveillance?

    Sorry for the delay in response, been stupidly busy. In short certain better camera manufacturers have built in analytic's. Motion + (Bosch), Axis have some etc... In short try and get a camera that has this built in. Any good VMS will 'listen' to that type of analytic and create an event or alarm. As for distinguishing between animal and person, its about sensitivity. We have something facing the road that distinguishes between vans and cars (I know larger), but the same concept.

    Has anyone tried system like this?

    Hi, yes I have installed something almost similar. Its a mesh network design for safe city projects around the world. However my design was slightly different, where each remote camera connects to a POE+ switch, the switch connects to the wireless router/bridge for the data transmission. This limits exposed cable (Which is a security risk). If you need good VMS software let me know, triski

    Beyond Property Surveillance?

    Hey Pax, Sorry Ive been insanely busy with work. I understand, avigilon cameras are not cheap. Personally I have a good relationship with Axis so they just gave me a couple cameras. I used the on board storage locator to access a hard drive (on a 9TB NAS, 4 bay QNAP) and it just records directly to it. I then use the axis software to watch video. My 2 camera system including the NAS came to £300.. I know i got cams free, but even then it might have been 450. I suggest getting cameras that can see 'network storage'. All the analytic stuff is fancy for no reason, and many of the lower end ones do not work.. e.g theres a partciular facial recognition company that sell their products as a single box solution.. But if you compare it with NEC neoface OR herta facial rec software you see why its soo cheap. And actually why its soo bad. There are thousands of small installers who can do a lot of 'fancy' analytic nonsense, but I suggest you stick with a good camera manufacturer that can embed certain analytics into the camera. Bosch and Axis are just a couple, where the software gets loaded into the camera.. and done. I do work with avigilon and they have some really decent cameras, but I do not have the full knowledge of them. I have not deployed many demanding projects with their hardware. Recently they have changed business model too, so I am unsure what the result of this will be. Look for a light finder camera 2TB might not be enough storage unless you are only using 7 days or something.
