QUOTE(maresh88 @ Sep 29 2024, 03:13 PM) Hi, I'm planning to get 4 units of outdoor cctv system like tapo cameras and VGI NVR. Any knows what kinda wiring is required for an installation like that? Trying to conceal the wiring as much as possible Used cat6, since not wireless don't get Tapo, the 3 major brand would be much better!

Can only do plug points. I'm trying to conceal the wires as much as possible. Will look into this more. Know any recommended service providers?

I want to install a wifi-based CCTV for inner courtyard. Looking for one that can be installed DIY (beginner level), can trigger notification to handphone apps, waterproof and has motion sensor. Already have a power socket for it and want to point it upwards towards opening at the roof. Any recommendation or suggestion? Thank you

Try used onvif manager using pc to detect if the ipc is online first, if can be detected just add the ipc with the user/password port 80 under Onvif on XVR.

Hi guys, I am about to purchase Xiaomi CW300. Items or storage, do I really need to buy the SD card (64GB, 128GB) or if they provide cloud storage?
Wondering what is the length of a video using 64GB with 2k resolution?
