Hello guys, I am looking for suggestions and ideas.

We are planning to fix two CCTV(s) in my grandparent's house as my grandmother currently staying with one my Aunty.

One at the hall area and kitchen area.

Wired or Wireless CCTV is the best option?
Now the house without internet aka WIFI connection but we plan to fix it later before CCTV for remote viewing.

We want the cheapest solution as possible.
My grandparent's live around Sungai Nibong Area.
Any recommended CCTV shops around there.

Is the wired CCTV with remote viewing expensive?
Got monthly bills for CCTV since I am new to this stuff.

consider getting dahua/hikvision ip camera, remote viewing is free. app used in ios/android is dmss (just search it up)
im selling it but no installation, can PM me for quotation.

Hi all, thinking of setting up CCTV at home. Seeing some brands like Hikvision, Dahua always quoted here, I engaged a Hikvision salesperson for a quotation as below. Main purpose is just general security and in-house monitoring of maid.

Due to existing wiring (installed many years ago) the person told me I can only use analog camera up to max of 5MP.

Seeking some opinions from sifus here on whether...

- the package is good (any glaring problems)
- the price is reasonable
- any other items

Quotation CCTV 8CH

Hik 8ch dvr system
2TB Hdd
Hik 5mp IR Dome x 4
Hik 5mp IR Bullet x 4
12V Switching Power Supply
Installation, Testing & Commisioinning
Internet Setting
----------------
@ RM 2,900.00
----------------

ONE YEAR WARRANTY

Payment Terms
50% deposit upon confirmation
50% balance after installation

Optional
1) Upgrade to 5mp clrvu (full time clr) Camera
-------------------
@ Add rm 150/unit
-------------------
2) Upgrade to 5mp (Audio) Camera
---------------
@ rm 150/unit
---------------

Thanks sifus

r they going to redo new wiring? for hd-cvi cameras, average price for a 5mp is average about rm200-350/unit depends on the feature, 8ch dvr average about rm450 that supports at least 5mp on all channel, so u can agak agak how much is the labour cost after minus the material cost.
if ip camera route, 5mp price about rm400-600/unit, depends on feature, 8ch nvr starting from around rm400.
hdd i suggest get at least a 4tb since u recording 5mp video, and this could keep yor records for at least 2-3weeks before it get overwritten.

edit: ** need to remember that sometime, things after a week before it is realise not there, so u can have at least 2-3 weeks of history video to view back. dahua DVR got smart search feature where it try to find motion or u can have certain area is motion only capture.

would like to ask, these cameras will store the videos inside the sd card right?

is there any option to upload the videos into the home pc hdd via wifi or those cheaper NAS like WD MyCloud?

thanks

if direct to PC, u can install SmartPSS, software by Dahua, this can convert yor home pc into a NVR. if u have a NAS, use iSCSI protocol to connect and use as a drive, which yor video can store it inside.
but i havent really went to test it yet, there is wiki from dahua on setup: https://dahuawiki.com/SmartPSS/How_To_Setup_PC_NVR

hi, would like to know a bit more on this. my house is currently under reno but i didn't plan for the cat cable, as i was thinking to rely n the wifi to save cost. may i know what will be the issues if only using wifi?

thanks

100% wire is preferable, after all, the point where u install the cctv will need a power outlet as well, might as well just get a CAT6 cable lay for it. CAT6 is sufficient as most camera havent even reach 1Gigabit yet, all still using 10/100 ports (so far havent seen any 10/100/1000 ports on camera yet)

Look for CCTV for the IR distance, but no matter how far it is, the further the object is, the image wont be as clear as it is near, it will look like those horror movies.

or try get those CCTV that has built-in LED spotlight but the range are also very limited.

just get any of those switch rack will do, a good quality 6U/9U rack would easily be around RM250++ not including the accessories.
