Maybe worth it if they didn't want to charge an extra 65% on top of standard pricing. I can...

    New server, primarily to get off of XP, but camera upgrades are possible.

    Hi all, I am weighing my options on this server. It currently runs XP with 14 cams. It is a Dell Precision T3500 with a 2.4ghz Xeon W3503 (this CPU supports x64 support but not Quick Sync), 4gb ram, C: 150GB, D: 250GB, E: 1TB, F: 1TB. I either need to get it off of XP with a W10 license for $120...

    Thanks for the added info! I was planning to use imports too. If one goes out within the standard warranty. I may just eat the cost. Not sure - maybe I could express the cost difference as an option and let the customer chose, but that would be tricky.

    Thank you very much for the info! Can you describe the job a little more please? For example: Did they hang cameras at existing locations? Did they have to run the cables in attic space, below ground? Did they have to put up poles to mount the cameras? Is the NVR setup basic or did they have to...

    Anyone have any input here? As of today, I officially need to provide a quote. I know cable pulls can range from $75-$150. I have heard hourly rates can reasonably be $100/hour. Does this sound right? I guess I would break down each portion of a job by hours: cable run x hours, configure cam x...

    POE on different power standards (120v AC, 230v AC etc etc) - confused

    I received the camera on Tuesday. It powered up via POE. Everything is working well. It only has a PAL option in the dropdown. The image is currently showing the lens cover, my lens is in the mail.

    Newbie Trying to Decide on NVR or BI PC Setup

    The first question you need to be able to answer is whether you want the extra features that come with BI? I am not seeing any comments in your post indicating that you do. Second, are you okay with the time it takes to learn how to set it all up? If so, I have a 4MP, 3MP, and 2MP running on an...

    Small Poe nvr with ssd for vehicle use?

    The NVRs Nelly's sells are pretty small, though I can't say I have looked closely at the size of many products. However, I might look to solve your problems with different solutions. You can get el cheapo backup cams online for under $15 and 4" screens for a similar amount. That could be your...

    POE on different power standards (120v AC, 230v AC etc etc) - confused

    Hi all, I am looking into buying this camera from Aliexpress. The seller is passing on some confusing info from Dahua. If POE uses a power supply to convert from whatever variety of AC to DC12V/AC24V, PoE (802.3af), is there any way the AC power source would matter? Here is the conversation I am...

    Replace failed analog license plate reader

    I just asked Lin Lin if she could ship soon. I am ready to order. She wanted to make sure I could work with the PAL signal. I told her the ACTi IP encoder it would be connected to accepts PAL and NTSC. She replied I am not sure what changes could be in place that would cause issues with either...

    Replace failed analog license plate reader

    I agree that it looks very likely based on the specs of the other Acti models. I may see if Acti can help me ID the converter tomorrow. I am guessing I will be routed through a reseller though. I need to get some more info and then email Ubiquiti before I go back for an update.

    Replace failed analog license plate reader

    Dropping analog probably means I might have to pull a network cable through a 20ft conduit and then up the pole the cameras are mounted on. I wish I had the model number for the Acti analog to IP converter. Their listed models all handle both. However, I didn't get the model off of the one that...

    Thanks again for the additional information. I sent them a message about NTSC. Hopefully Lin Lin responds soon. - - - Updated - - - She is fast! She replied while I was typing that last post. She doesn't have NTSC.

    Replace failed analog license plate reader

    That looks like the exact product I am looking for! The way I read it's specs, it can provide a digital or analog stream, it has a crazy fast shutter speed, ultra low lux requirements (I think there are street lights at this location anyway), I don't see any higher rated camera on their site of...

    Replace failed analog license plate reader

    I need to replace a License Plate Reader. The current one is analog. It connects to an Axis Analog to IP converter, then to a Milestone server via a cable modem. I would like to get an analog option as well as an option for an IP cam. The camera is mounted about 10' up on a pole. The info I can...
