    Property marker LPR camera

    And we usually get afternoon thunderstorms around 3ish, but they don't last long. Half hour usually. Hurricanes and tropical storms are a whole other thing, you wouldn't see anything in detail anyway with all the wind and torrential rain.

    Property marker LPR camera

    Not really blind, more like vision impaired. You'll still get color and type of vehicle, but maybe not exact details. Still useful for observing and maybe recognizing subjects

    Property marker LPR camera

    I currently have two turret cameras mounted on posts elsewhere on the property with no visors. Yes, they will get droplets on the face of the camera, but even the turrets I have that are under the eaves will get water on the face during many of our storms here in east central Florida because of...

    I highly doubt this message is from someone in the US, more likely China or Russia. And the message provides absolutely no useful information

    Security Cameras

    AI can be a great benefit to the world, but like all things, it will likely end up being used more negatively than for the benefit of society. I really hate the AI marketing phone calls, texts and emails which seem to have rolling accounts, because no sooner do you block them, you get another of...

    Running multiple NVRs Pros and Cons

    Perfect. I presume using 2 NVRs you have twice the bandwidth?

    Property marker LPR camera

    Latest update on the install. Wires run in conduit to the Marker camera and installed. Still have yet to run the cables to one of the current camera locations to use a splitter/combiner. Photo of the installation at the end of the driveway

    Running multiple NVRs Pros and Cons

    I have more cameras on the way and will likely be above the 16 channels of the NVR5216-16P-4KS2E with the additional cameras. I have the Lorex NVR which works fine for the older style camera GUI's. Can and/or should I run the Lorex in conjunction with the Dahua NVR to get a maximum of 32...

    Buying a used Dahua NVR - yes or no?

    I ran 2 conductor wire with the CAT6 lines to all my PTZ locations, it was easy enough to do during install since all connections come from the attic which was relatively easily to access at the time. If I didn't have a power wire run, then the only options would be to run a cable (not going to...

    PTZ6C2M-45X vs PTZ5A4M-25X

    This part I understand. Does the external switch uplink/data port connect to one of the NVR ports or to your LAN?

    Buying a used Dahua NVR - yes or no?

    Which is why I just use the power supply included with the camera. No worrying about exceeding the maximum POE output of the NVR

    PTZ6C2M-45X vs PTZ5A4M-25X

    Ok, one port out of the NVR to the external switch and two POE ports out of the external switch connected to the combiner end to a single cable run for 2 cameras and you use the splitter end to connect to the cameras?

    Buying a used Dahua NVR - yes or no?

    They're just standard POE ports like the rest

    PTZ6C2M-45X vs PTZ5A4M-25X

    Nope. Looks like all ports are just the garden variety standard POE ports

    PTZ6C2M-45X vs PTZ5A4M-25X

    Ok, just so I understand your connections, the Netgear POE switch is connected to one of the NVR POE ports and your larger PTZ cameras are connected to the Netgear POE switch ports?
