I am currently interning at a plastics manufacturer and am in charge of installing a new set of security cameras. We ordered 8 new QTN8037B cameras to go with our new Q-See DVR. After reading through part of their manual I saw that they recommend attaching an external power supply if the camera needs more than 200 feet of cat5 cable. With almost all of our cameras exceeding that distance I was curious if anyone has had experience with this and if adding the external power supply is necessary? Thank you all in advance!
