Wifi Security Cameras at over 1000ft away?!?

- A wireless video surveillance solution we provided for a mobile home park.
Reliably extending security camera wifi range over 1000 feet is possible. We used Reolink wifi IP cameras and extended the RP-SMA connections on the cameras and the NVR to fit high gain directional antennas. This allowed the camera's wifi connection to have much longer range from the NVR with visible line of sight. The NVR is housed in a weatherproof climate controlled enclosure. We did not install any poles, only replace the existing ubiquiti wifi equipment that had failed and replaced the older IP cameras with 4K Reolink wifi cameras.

I did a similar project a few years ago in a trailer park with Unifi network products, Ubiquity point to point and Hickvision cameras. All could be managed remotely and if there was a failure we could pretty much tell where it was remotely. Everything still working fine and no we didn't cut a trench for a hard wires. We put the DVR in the office away from the elements (not in case on a pole) and used Ubiquity point to point so no single point of failure would bring down all the cameras. Of course hardwire is always more reliable and way more expensive. The question is how much did your project cost vs. a wireless system. ;)
I did the job at less than 1/5th the cost of the lowest bid. Hikvision and ubiquiti were what was up there. I have another install for another mobile home complex coming up that has the same ubiquiti equipment that failed. They have no cameras that are working currently. That's why they called me.
I love shit like this. Cool project
Thanks! Reolink made it easy with how quickly the cameras connected to the NVR. Everyone should be able to do this instead of getting charged an arm and a leg by network companies.
Incorrent and mixed terms used throughout video. Not UniFi but mixture of AirMax gear. Crappy looking antennas on flimsy poles blowing around in the breeze. You everyting onto Wi-Fi open to noise sources and crashing while making a crap load of noise in doing so. NVR in box on pole.... Nothing about this says Pro or great.
These are wifi cameras putting out probably 70mw of power that is directed. Less power than the airmax gear at 300mw. This was a budget install and one of those antennas was a Ruckus antenna that costs over $500. We did not install any poles.. The existing ubiquiti equipment didn't work and this was a quick replacement of that hardware which simplified the system. We did this at 1/5 the cost that was quoted elsewhere. The NVR's RP-SMA radio ports need to be close to the antennas. The NVR needs temperature stability to stay operating properly which is provided by a vented weatherproof enclosure.
@@slewride The project was not done correctly in first place, your contribution just changed a lot of things and still far from correct method. PtMP wiress was correct setup but poorly installed by people who did not undertand wireless and networking. Sorry, but your own naration and the video says the same bout your job. I am not going respond anymore as I have been in radio for nearly 40 years and IT for over 25. Take it or leave it.
@@bentheguru4986 thanks for the input, care to share some of your work? 😆
