    Emergency Power/Storms/Prepping etc

    After my last outage I learned that 6kw is actually plenty. Most of the time we were sitting well well below 6kw. The only things that spiked it over were using things like the Microwave and Air Fryer at the same time, oven, big AC (We also have mini splits) So, I could easily "get by" with...

    Emergency Power/Storms/Prepping etc

    I have my big liquid cooled Generac, and I have some portable generators, but the portables are not very tough, and I don't really trust them to run for weeks on end. So I wanted a better backup to the backup generator, if that makes sense $1200 later, I found it! Its only 6kw output, but its...

    Ethernet Surge Protector OUTDOOR INSTALLS

    Surge protectors are very low resistance, so when you get a surge the current wants to go there. The longer the wire run, the higher the resistance and the less effective the surge protector is. He probably wants to protect both the camera and the switch side This is why you want a surge...

    Ethernet Surge Protector OUTDOOR INSTALLS

    Run a nice thick copper wire up from the Intersystem Bonding Connector of your house, make sure you don't add another ground rod or you could end up causing more damage that what you are trying to solve Make the wire as straight as possible with as few sharp bends as you can get away with...

    Fiber instead of PoE, what about power?

    Why are we splicing fiber at all? Termination is not splicing If you’ve never heard of professionals using pre-terminated fiber then you may not know many professionals Also, why do we care what “professionals” are doing? OP is installing a few cameras, not a mission critical undersea cable

    Fiber instead of PoE, what about power?

    I don't mean to come off as rude, but what are you talking about, and how many hardened DoD facilities have you been to? This comment comes across like its from someone who has never worked with fiber before in their life. Running fiber is trivial and often times easier than copper as there are...

    SOS, Need a 220v Ethernet switch

    Almost any modern network equipment will run between 100-250v In fact, 99.9999% (Dare I say 100%?) of rackmount switches will do 220v without issue, as datacenters typically have 208v
