    in doing more research, don't forget to also get a junction box for your hikvision turret to hide cables, etc. a different model is needed if you go with a dome/bullet cam. http://www.nellyssecurity.com/1280zj-m-junction-box-for-h-series-exir-dome-security-cameras.html

    quick question for you ipcam pros - why is it that the Hikvision 8-channel NVR below "only" have 50mbps throughput while cheaper models from other brands show a much higher number? Is 50mbps enough bandwidth for 8 x 4/5MP cameras...

    Any particular reason why go with turret over bullet? I'm not seeing any Hikvision turret cameras available on nelly's security.

    Using Nelly's Security for reference, would the following be a good starting point? Do I need to purchase special CAT5 cables for the camera or would standard ones work? 6 x Hikvision 2MP bullet IP cam...

    Hisilicon sounds like the processor inside is made by Huawei as most of their android phones use their in-house-designed processor with the same name.

    this will definitely be my very first system but I also don't want to cut corners on quality as again, I plan for the installation to last quite some time (barring any defects or equipment breakdown). are there any other reputable resellers worth looking into?

    Thanks for the replies so far. I'm definitely still learning/reading up on all of the options. Nelly's Security has come up in other searches and their markup is quite high for Hikvision versus what I see elsewhere but you do get 3yr warranty and guaranteed updates from Hikvision for cameras...
