Appreciate your thoughts 
I prefer to have a CCTV system that really serves the purpose. Still looking around for options, prefer something that is reliable and last long especially outdoor one. Prefer NOT to use wifi one even they are easy to setup. In the end I still need to pull power line, why not just go for POE I think.
I had some Hikvision cameras with NVR, not POE, they last long but image quality not as good.
As for Synology surveillance station that only support 2 free cameras for free, it seems like I won't use it as I might have 16 cameras in total (indoor & outdoor). Also my nas might not strong enough in video transcoding.
Appreciate if you could suggest some CCTV system or camera models, I will looking into it.
Thank you =)

1 pairs for data, 1 pair for power, 2 pairs unused
You will need a 12V adapter spliced to pure 12V and GND lead to put the 1 power pair inside, data using so called video baluns for BNC connector on camera and recorder side
China cameras are cheap, quality decent for what they cost, I personally don’t use them as I don’t want China based brands to handle my surveillance and network, personally am using fully Ubiquiti setup (4x cam with recorder+router for > RM3k)
But one 2MP IP camera from Hik costs about RM130, analog sub RM100. Put a few of of them and use their recorder for an overall low cost setup. Main price contributing factor is just the cabling cost
With Hik only hardware for my setup equivalent, sub 1k is definitely more than enough
