Beggers can't be choosers. topic moved to CCTV section, please try to observe the titles of the differnt forums and post accordingly.C. Ok sorry about that Wireless is ok, assuming you site survey etc.But cheap wireless (and im assuming here also) isnt. This stuff works and works well http://www.radiodata.co.uk/Products/rdt-video.htm The stuff built into the camera is awful and barly does 10m. The stuff I'm using, you cable from cam to transmitter and the transmitter obviousley needs line of site with the reciever and branches of trees blowing seems to be affecting the signal on off on off .

james.wilson Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 yeah cos its sh..... I know the units, very popular on ebay and certain importers. But we have only ripped em out, had one that was doing 6m line of sight, reciever was rammed in a plastic box mounted outside. Even that one lost signal at different times of the day. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
masonc Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 We are doing a wireless project for a property that has no cabling and wants outdoor cameras quickly. We are using a WiFi WDS network backbone with client bridges on each camera pole, and using IP cameras. That works beautifully if you know how to do a serious WiFi distribution system. We are using inexpensive Access Points and Client Brides, the work is all in the configuration and survey.
james.wilson Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 agreed but your tlking IP, modified aerials and channel distribution. Well done, and if you spend a simialr amount of money you could go a lot futher with an analouge setup from RDT. I think the basic message is pay securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
