I know very little about Cisco as they are a bit proprietary for my liking,

 

he'll have the linksys type

TBH I think the easiest is going to be a rewire-it's all single storey with suspended ceilings so dead easy for pulling network cables and that way I get to sample the joy of IP.  For bandwidth presumably good quality CAT6 or 7 with a clean install and decent POE switch?

You still following F1? Rosberg finally got it (controversially) but it's all got a bit tedious now.

 

If your planning a rewire then that's fine,  just thought I'd mention you can get HD on Coax if required.

Bandwidth of your network not the cable, you need to know a bit about networking to get it right. You don't want the camera system dragging your buildings internet speed to dial up speeds.

Don't believe CAT7 is a standard, Cat5e would be fine but CAT6 is better if cabling the whole building for IP.

Some NVR's have PoE built in or you may need injectors depending on the draw of the cameras or cable length.

 

Motorbikes here, not F1 that would be sjsturner your thinking of.

That sounds like it could work well and I just just found the web based setup for the Ciscos so will give it a bash-thanks!

Hi SWB, yeah the drilling's going good thanks, must be doing something right as they're dying to get in lol

Hey! How’s it going dude?

still torturing people for a living :-)

 

Rosberg is your typical German driver, dirty as you like and win at any cost, but he did the job and he was fast, but the record and history books speak for themselves.

it has got a bit boring now, they need to dial the aero back a bit to make following easier.

Ferrari could have won this year, but they buckled under the pressure.

Still loitering around the paddock at the moment, getting involved in other drivers careers, namely Robert Cubica at present

Dammit, it's the Alzheimers setting in, we've had discussions about bikes too (Tiger Sport here), you did some track days if the memorie's not completely shot?  Actually that HD over coax could be very handy for upgrading home as the cables were a bit of a bitch to pull.  For the bandwidth question I assumed the two networks would be separate with just an ethernet cable to the NVR, could have got that wrong though.  There was a problem with the IP phones cocking up the computer network when the networks were connected together.

 

Ciscos are SPA504g don't know if that's Linksys or not?  It's a centrex system btw, very handy to be able to do everything at distance.

 

Didn't know you were an F1 fan James, what do you think of the new regs? Hoping it's going to be more interesting next year but don't we always.

Hello mate good to hear from you, yeah it's going good thanks, hope the installing's going well!  

 

Yeah Rosberg had that annoying entitled child aura about him didn't he but it made for exciting stuff with Hamilton.  Hamilton's massive engine failure (no, no!) was the nail in the coffin imo.  Didn't Rosberg steal all his engineers too? lol

Totally agree about the aero, they need to make it easier to overtake but the aero is big business apparently so it's not going to change any time soon, big shame.  I have to admit to taking some pleasure seeing Vettel throw his championship down the pan when he drove into Vestappen and Raikonnen

Yeah it seemed like a stitch up but most likely just bad luck, he’s had some better luck this season.

 

i was talking to someone about Singapore after qualifying and I said don’t worry Max is lined up so he’s not gonna give an inch. I didn’t think they would collide but I knew Max would make it difficult for Vettel. Was a glorious crash, just a shame they collected Alonso as well as it would have been interesting watching him flog that Honda.

 

Ricciardo is another class driver, so late on the brakes, Redbull team is going to get real scrappy next year

 

just got to wait 4 months now :-(

Your thinking of someone else again...

Yes. It would be sensible to pull separate cables for the whole network back to a cabinet and patch up as required if your starting again.

I like my motorsport well sport generally, but I just can't watch a full F1 race  just completely uninteresting to watch for a long time now, considering it's suppose to be the pinnacle of 4 wheels.

Yeah it was glorious wasn't it, Hamilton must have had a massive grin on his face as he drove off into the sunset!

 

Hopefully the Renault engine will be up for it next year but a patient  who's a Renault F1 engineer reckon's they're still going to have problems, which is a great shame for the fans.

Yeah the way the building is laid out means the cables can easily be pulled back to node zero to keep the networks separated.  

 

It's a pity that bike racing isn't better televised because the racing is so much more exiting but it just doesn't have that "human" factor somehow probably from lack of publicity.

This last season of the GP has been hotter than ever. While not everyone can access BT Sport they do a decent job of the coverage and improving each season so far.

Unless you ride you are unlikely have much interest or appreciate the talent and exciting racing on show, that's just the way it goes.
