Greetings all. This is my first post as I am at a loss for identifying the issue that I am having with one of my cameras. Typically I am able to find the answers somewhere in the forums. After a house fire 17 years ago, I had the security alarm company run a line for me to use for a camera on the front porch. There was concern at the time that the fire was set intentionally and I wanted to have something to monitor who was coming and going from the front of my house. When I finally went to install the camera I realized they installed a coax line with power to be used with an analog camera. Do to that reason I ended up having to postpone the camera install till I could figure out how to either replace or use the existing coax.
A few years ago I started working on this project again and I came across these POE over COAX converters that would allow me to use the existing line that was run. Everything seemed great at first till several days later I noticed that the feed from that camera was delayed by just over a minute. If I reset the camera it goes back to being sync with all the other cameras, but after a couple days it is delayed again. The camera is an Amcrest IP8M-T2599EW. I've tried changing the bit rate and other configurable variables based on guides here in these forums, but nothing I do seems to fix the issue. I'm also using BI for currently 3 cameras, 2 are WiFi and the third is the problem child. I have no issues with the WiFi cameras at this time accept when our microwave is in use. I am planning on running a new cat 6 line to the garage as I will be adding a second camera there and I want to change the current camera with another Amcrest bullet. Both of those will be powered by a small POE switch in the garage.
I'm hoping someone here can help me figure out where else to look to try and solve this issue or am I stuck with it because I am doing the conversion from IP to COAX and back.
Thanks in advance.
