Ahh I see, I was planning on buying a camera with built in WiFi so would I still need one of the switches?

What is it the POE switch does?

I'm a total noob at this so I don't really understand a lot of that lol, would someone be able to post an example camera I'd be able to buy in the UK, I should have said there is street lamps next to the parking space as well so I shouldn't need an extra ir source, I was hoping to get a camera with wifi to connect to my router then all I would have to do is plug it in, connect it to the WiFi, plug in the sd card and start recording

Thanks for getting back to me, so with the ip camera will that automatically record over the previous footage? Aye it will, works on loop principle Whats distance from location to parking space? You may need a varifocal camera and external don't buy one and put it against the window at night time the IR from the camera will bounce off the glass and all you will get is a blur I'm going to get an ououtdoor camera anyway, thanks, the distance to the car is around 10 metres

Hello, I'm needing some help with a cctv setup, I'm guessing this would be the best place to post and ask. Basically I'm getting a brand new car in the next few weeks and I would like a single security camera to keep an eye on it as it will be parked on the street outside my flat. I'm from Scotland just in case It's different setups from the USA, what I'm looking for is a single camera, reasonably priced preferably with infared to see at night time, it doesn't have to be able to move as the car will be in the same parking space all the time, the camera will be outside just above my window on an overhanging part of the roof facing in the direction of the car. This is where I get confused though, I'm wanting the camera to record for 48 hours then loop over its self, so if I see any marks on the car I will be able to look over the footage from the last 2 days and find out what cacausedt, I would rather not have to purchase a video recorder as well so is it possible tothey a camera that will record 48 hours of clear footage onto an sd card then record over and over? Would also like to be able to view the camera from my phone on an app if possible. Thanks in advance for any help, Dean.
