Nicely stated video. To save costs on installation. NVR's are generally better for cabling and terminating cables end to end. The old bnc type connections can be restrictive running within cable pathways both at home or in the office. When someone has to re-terminate ends it can be more time consuming on the overall job especially if pre terminated cables are not long enout to reach their destination. Thanks
I'll just add that you can use Cat5e cabling for DVRs too, just gotta connect the BNC jack on both ends hehe (Blue & Orange), Then for the power, just use DC cable & jack. You can even extend existing wiring using a BNC Male-Male Adaptor, you can measure and cut to size that way, helped me a ton sometimes.
Question: Can I set up a NVR system without connecting to the internet? Do you have a video on how I can set it up. I bought some DAHUA cameras, then a DAHUA NVR and can't figure what next.

Last week whilst replacing my dvr step down transformer I were prompted to ' upgrade software ' in which I did but lo and behold all my 4 channels video feed went blank immediately ? Is there any way to downgrade back to old software to make it work again ?
Hi I have a camera system from lorex E892AB. I like the 4k video but I need one that has a louder speaker and more sensitive to sounds that are 25 feet away. Do you have any recommendations?
We Do! Its a prop mic that we use to make the scene look better (the real mic is tied to my shirt!), and we usually remember to direct the cord so it 'looks' like its plugged in :) We noticed during editing that we forgot to run the cord and thought "we'll just leave it in as a silly goof rather than refilm the whole thing".

Friend.. if I connect several IP cameras via ethernet cable, will that make my internet a little slower?... I understand that Wi-Fi cameras do make the Wi-Fi internet slower, but I don't know if I should do it via ethernet also make it slower
Hi Jorge! There are a few possible situations in which this could be the case. There are also ways to avoid or prevent it. First on an NVR with onboard PoE, where the cameras connect directly to the NVR, you probably won't experience much internet slowdown. Keep in mind every time you open up your app to connect to the camera system, at these moments the system will be utilizing your internet and depending on how much bandwidth your ISP plan provides, it could have a brief effect during this time. You wouldn't experience any more or less internet usage than a COAX system which is also remotely viewable For cameras that connect to an external POE switch- generally speaking- if this switch is on the same network as your ISP router, it could cause local traffic slow downs. For this reason with external PoE cameras, it is often recommended to have a second, dedicated router just for handling these cameras.

I have an NVR system, my recorder is about to die. Can you recommend a universal recorder, that can use my pre-existing cameras without having to purchase a new system?
Hi! Thanks for the question. The cameras themselves that come with your NVR would have to be equipped with the universal Communications protocol called ONVIF. This protocol called ONVIF is what allows CCTV devices from different manufactures to communicate. If you can confirm that your cameras have ONVIF then any one of our NVRs could potentially be compatible. For more info, contact sales M-F 9am to 6PM EST at 561-288-5258.
Can I network an external poe switch to the internal nvr switch? and connect ip cameras to the external switch, that will be given ip addresses from the nvr internal switch as if i connected those cameras directly to the nvr internal switch?
Why is it not recommended? By using the nvr’s internal switch to communicate with an external switch, that is only connected to that internal nvr network, it would keep all cameras off of the external network, so they are only accessible by the nvr, on the nvr’s isolated internal network. are there any specific reasons why this will not work, is there a limit on bandwidth, or other hardware or software restrictions? please advise
You cannot connect a PoE Switch to your NVR. You connect you PoE Switch and your NVR to your router. Everything goes to your router. Unless your NVR has two RJ45 connections with one being used for the router and the other being used by your PoE Switch, but you would need to use a different IP scheme for each RJ45 connection. This kind of setup isn't as quick and dirty, but it does have some advantages such as eliminating IP conflicts on a large network.
Hi. First of all thank you for the vedio. I am glad that you said all the processing is done by the camera not the NVR therefore in theory my old/existing HD NVR will work 4k if I just upgrade the cameras alone. Could you please confirm this or if I misunderstood. Thank you.
While processing is still done by the cameras and not the NVR, the NVR still needs to be able to properly connect to and see the cameras in order to retrieve data from them. You would need to ensure with the manufacturer of your NVR confirms compatibility with newer cameras.
@@Securitycamerakingcom Thank you again for prompt reply. I have existing SANNCE HD NVR system.

Most of our NVRs and DVRs will have an Alarm-Out Relay that can be connected to any siren or alarm system you already possess.

Great video. Quick question I have a old system installed in my office the problem I don't know the password and the old owner don't know as well my question can I just buy a new nvr system and plug it to the cameras and it will work or the cameras locked as well ?
When we mentioned that NVR's only work with 'IP or "Network"' cameras, those are cameras that have to be on a network to transmit their data to recorder or server. They have RJ-45 jacks for connectivity, are assinged an IP address from the local network and GENERALLY can also be accessed and streamed remotely to other locations. The cameras themselves are basically little computers with built in cameras. Our systems do not have paid apps or require a subscription service, but there are plenty of NVRs and IP cameras on the market that do. I hope that helps answer your question.
Simple Quick Question. I lost two cameras in the Typhoon here in Philippines last December. Now I want to replace them together with new power supplies. My system is NVR 8ch Wireless. So cameras only need power to transmit to base. Will any wireless camera transmit to base or do I need a camera that transmits on same Freq? The control box setup is a Cheapo from China. But I overpaid to a CCTV company to do it for me a few years ago now. There is "noname" of the supplier on the inside or outside of the Box. By noname I mean Makers name.The only good thing is the SATA 1tb Hard drive. So now I have only 6 cameras instead of 8, I would like to know which cameras to buy Please.
IP cameras are not generally universal, we would need to know the exact make and model of your recorder, in order to even try to suggest a camera for it. There is never a 100% compatibility guarantee when mixing brands. If you are able to obtain this information, then we can try and asssit. Otherwise, I would suggest potentially replacing the entire system.
Our System is designed to support natively our own cameras. However, if your wifi cameras are ONVIF, there is a chance of compatibility. It is not something we can guarantee. We offer a 30-day return window on all products for testing.
Yes but nvr cameras will use your internet, for customers in rural ares where their internet package maxes out at 10mbps download all of their internet get a used up by 4 cameras and their ISP gets calls on why their "Netflix don't work!"
While end-users with limited broadband access (particularly in regards to low upload speeds, most users with 10 Mbps down probably get 1 Mbps up) will certainly struggle to view their cameras remotely, this is neither an NVR specific problem nor are you required to have internet to use an NVR. DVRs may often feature lower resolution cameras, but if you want to view your cameras from a cellphone or computer the base issue remains the same- not enough available bandwidth. NVRs with built in PoE ports only require a monitor and mouse to interact with, they can be run completely offline should you so choose. NVRs without PoE can be run similarly over local network with some additional setup. Users with bandwidth issues may want to set up a seperate 'Home View' in your phone/PC applications using your NVR's local IP address instead of using the P2P/QR code setup so you can connect to your NVR over your local network instead of off a P2P server. P2P will always connect over the internet, regardless of whether you are on the same network as your recorder or not. Connecting to your recorder over LAN while at home will solve bandwidth issues for users when connected to the same local network as their recorders. Additionally, our systems do not cause much outbound traffic when they are not being viewed so they should not interfere with your download speeds unless they are being actively monitored or you are pulling footage from your recorder.
so, what i'm getting it you need to physically connect an NVR to a camera for it to work? i was looking for an IP camera that is battery powered, but the one i asked said i still needed an NVR?
Marianette, IP cameras only have to be connected to the same physical network (whether that is via switch or WiFi) as the NVR, they do not HAVE to connect directly to an NVR. Most modern NVRs contain embedded PoE switches for a more unified and simplified setup and installation, but they are not required to be used. DVRs on the other hand do require a direct line from the camera to the recorder if you are using anything based of coaxial cable. We are not currently carrying any battery powered systems, however. We have a solar/lte setup for semi-permanent remote deployment (a construction site, for instance) but it is not what most residential customers are looking for. If you can get power to your camera, our www.securitycameraking.com/product/4mp-elite-network-ip-wifi-wireless-ir-bullet-security-camera/ can connect to WiFi and either record straight to an SD card or to one of our recorders.
Tengo un servicio de internet lento y con cortes. Teniendo en cuenta esta aclaración ¿es mejor NVR o DVR? Tengo entendido que NVR usa datos de internet todo el tiempo y DVR sólo usa datos cuando se conecta un dispositivo remoto para ver las cámaras ¿estoy en lo correcto?
Hola Emanuel. Los dos DVR y NVR usan el internet el mismo y solo usan datos cuando quieres verlos al remoto. IP cameras no requieran internet para functionar si tienes un NVR, los camaras hablan con el NVR todo el tiempo, no el internet.
Joe, at 3:20 you said “you’ve got two great videos describing the benefits of DVR and NVR recorders AND THEY’RE LINKED IN THE DESCRIPTION BELOW.” But, Joe.. they’re not.
Hey I got a question. First let me say your video was easy fir me to better understand. Now question I want to purchase a security camera system. We live in a rural area, what cams would you recommend? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
There are many different reasons for Channels.. When you look at your NVR and load a camera it can ask you for a Channel, If your Camera is a Multi Channel camera setup with 3 or 4 different cameras in 1 system you can choose to setup what channel you want to view on your NVR. Say you connecting a 2 Channel Camera to your nvr and your on channel 5, when you setup your NVR you would choose the channel of the lens you want to add to channel 5 of your NVR, Lets say Ch2 because it happens to share space of your NVR's CH4 then in your NVR Ch6 you could setup the Ch1 of the camera with the lens facing a different area or maybe it was because that camera is just a 2 lens camera with one B/W and other Color however you don't have to do them channel back to back you could add that channel to say 16 if you had a 16ch NVR and wanted that to be your B/W spot only needing to be seen when you choose. Like in my 16ch NVR I watch the main first 9 channels and the last 7 are on Motion Tour so I can see if there is motion it will pop up on the screen. These channels are less traveled and shouldn't have much traffic if it does I want to be alerted..
Can someone recommend No Wi-Fi micro sdhc card camera ( not wall plug type) that can be plugged in wall with cord or USB powerbank charger again no Wi-Fi
i have a dvr that run 7 analog cameras and i have 1 ip camera with my dvr i have to switch from ahd to ip on my dvr box so i cant view all my cameras on one monitor screen and what i want to know is can i connect a poe switch with up links to convert my analog ahd cameras to ip will this work or it doesn't happen like that i don't want to change the cameras i have as they work really good
Unfortunately, we have no way of making a coax camera into an IP camera. A pentabrid recorder can take in all those various signals and display them as if they were one unit. If you currently have one of our recorders, please contact our support department to have them assist you in adjusting your channel settings to get your cameras to show up the way you want. If it's an 8 channel recorder, you should be able to set channel 8 as IP, connect your 7 AHD cameras directly to the recorder in channels 1-7 and have it display in your grid view as if it were physically plugged into your recorder. If your recorder is from another manufacturer, you may want to consider switching to an Elite based system (compatibility with 3rd party cameras would be over ONVIF only, however). You can contact us at (561) 288-5258 ext 2 for sales and 3 for support.

Pretty well explained, but with a short video like this a lot of information is left out. For example, analog is much more reliable than IP. But setting up IP can be much more dynamic than analog, etc. etc.
Thanks for the feedback Rick! This video is specifically about DVRs and NVRs, rather than the technologies IP and COAX. Keep in mind many DVRs can use IP cameras as well, so IP and NVR are not mutually exclusive. The merits of using IP vs COAX are important topics to cover though, and that's why these topics are covered in our other videos: Top 5 Reasons to go COAX: ruclips.net/video/r1j-4s7JrHM/видео.html Top 5 Reasons go IP: ruclips.net/video/A7Baeyr7Z-A/видео.html Thanks again!
Not particularly. None of our recorders have integrated WIFI; a lot of consumer WIFI is still inconsistent, unmanaged or provided via ISP and is not our recommended default connectivity option. While we recognize running cable sucks, particularly if you don't do it for a living it really is the most secure, consistent and stable method to connect your cameras to your recorder. Also, it can be the easiest to program on NVRs as at worse, all you have to do is initialize the camera on the channel, at best it's literally plug and play. Coax recorders with built-in PoE exist, but they're super rare and we haven't had one in years. If you have a hodge-podge of equipment, you might need a hodge-podge of connectivity options to make everything talk to one-another.
I never seen a DVR (which uses coax) with built-in WiFi for receiving a camera signal. In fact, I never seen a NVR (which uses IP) with built-in WiFi for receiving a camera signal. I don't know if they are even made. Wireless cameras usually sent their video to a wireless router which sends the signal to the NVR. Your best bet is to buy a PoE Switch for your cameras and connect it to your router.
@@MAGAMAN You can use any hard drive brand you want if you don't care about reliability. But I don't think he knew how to ask the question. Since you were the one who didn't answer his questions you might be the one needing more researching.

An NVR does not require an internet connection to operate, especially one with one with onboard POE. However in order to monitor your cameras without the internet you'll need to have a TV or Monitor with HDMI available to connect directly to the recorder. You can also connect an NVR to a local network and use a PC to view it. Local networks do not require internet.
I would like to make a TV with a DVR by adding a hardrive and needed electronics. Not sure how adapt RF signal to make it work. I'm looking for a partner with the electronic ability. Prototype to be taken to patent office and manufactures. Anybody interested ? The simple DVR should not have cable company and government control. The fair use act of 1976 still applies !

By noname I mean Makers name.The only good thing is the SATA 1tb Hard drive. So now I have only 6 cameras instead of 8, I would like to know which cameras to buy Please.
IP cameras are not generally universal, we would need to know the exact make and model of your recorder, in order to even try to suggest a camera for it. There is never a 100% compatibility guarantee when mixing brands. If you are able to obtain this information, then we can try and asssit. Otherwise, I would suggest potentially replacing the entire system.
hello there. i was wondering if i can use multiple mini WiFi security cameras with the NVR system ?
Our System is designed to support natively our own cameras. However, if your wifi cameras are ONVIF, there is a chance of compatibility. It is not something we can guarantee. We offer a 30-day return window on all products for testing.
I am now even more confused then I was before watching this video
Seemed pretty clear to me. Do you have some kind of learning disability?
Make notes.
Yes but nvr cameras will use your internet, for customers in rural ares where their internet package maxes out at 10mbps download all of their internet get a used up by 4 cameras and their ISP gets calls on why their "Netflix don't work!"
While end-users with limited broadband access (particularly in regards to low upload speeds, most users with 10 Mbps down probably get 1 Mbps up) will certainly struggle to view their cameras remotely, this is neither an NVR specific problem nor are you required to have internet to use an NVR. DVRs may often feature lower resolution cameras, but if you want to view your cameras from a cellphone or computer the base issue remains the same- not enough available bandwidth. NVRs with built in PoE ports only require a monitor and mouse to interact with, they can be run completely offline should you so choose. NVRs without PoE can be run similarly over local network with some additional setup. Users with bandwidth issues may want to set up a seperate 'Home View' in your phone/PC applications using your NVR's local IP address instead of using the P2P/QR code setup so you can connect to your NVR over your local network instead of off a P2P server. P2P will always connect over the internet, regardless of whether you are on the same network as your recorder or not. Connecting to your recorder over LAN while at home will solve bandwidth issues for users when connected to the same local network as their recorders. Additionally, our systems do not cause much outbound traffic when they are not being viewed so they should not interfere with your download speeds unless they are being actively monitored or you are pulling footage from your recorder.
Good nice presentation 👍
good
so, what i'm getting it you need to physically connect an NVR to a camera for it to work?
i was looking for an IP camera that is battery powered, but the one i asked said i still needed an NVR?
Marianette, IP cameras only have to be connected to the same physical network (whether that is via switch or WiFi) as the NVR, they do not HAVE to connect directly to an NVR. Most modern NVRs contain embedded PoE switches for a more unified and simplified setup and installation, but they are not required to be used. DVRs on the other hand do require a direct line from the camera to the recorder if you are using anything based of coaxial cable. We are not currently carrying any battery powered systems, however. We have a solar/lte setup for semi-permanent remote deployment (a construction site, for instance) but it is not what most residential customers are looking for. If you can get power to your camera, our www.securitycameraking.com/product/4mp-elite-network-ip-wifi-wireless-ir-bullet-security-camera/ can connect to WiFi and either record straight to an SD card or to one of our recorders.
Tengo un servicio de internet lento y con cortes. Teniendo en cuenta esta aclaración ¿es mejor NVR o DVR? Tengo entendido que NVR usa datos de internet todo el tiempo y DVR sólo usa datos cuando se conecta un dispositivo remoto para ver las cámaras ¿estoy en lo correcto?
Hola Emanuel. Los dos DVR y NVR usan el internet el mismo y solo usan datos cuando quieres verlos al remoto. IP cameras no requieran internet para functionar si tienes un NVR, los camaras hablan con el NVR todo el tiempo, no el internet.
Joe, at 3:20 you said “you’ve got two great videos describing the benefits of DVR and NVR recorders AND THEY’RE LINKED IN THE DESCRIPTION BELOW.” But, Joe.. they’re not.
But Greg you're right!
Well, get right on adding those links!
Hey I got a question. First let me say your video was easy fir me to better understand. Now question I want to purchase a security camera system. We live in a rural area, what cams would you recommend? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
See this is the problem with all the acronyms. To me NVR stands for No Voltage Release. It's a type of switch.
There are quite a few tech Arconyms out there, that's why we are glad to be able to help clear things up!
i had to google NVR and was rewarded with this bad-ass video! #totallyworthit
So advice from someone whose mic is not plugged in?
I'm completely distracted by your unplugged microphone...
:D yeah, normally we do a better job of routing the prop mic cable, guess we missed that one!
@@joeshopsin4060 Great video.. Was just teasing you...
@@raybois No worries at all! We appreciate the friendly banter and are glad you enjoyed the video!
@@joeshopsin4060 ✔
I noticed this as well! Great video
So the dvr would be better cause it does all round cameras if your dvr can be connected to a switch
What does having different channels do and purpose?
There are many different reasons for Channels.. When you look at your NVR and load a camera it can ask you for a Channel, If your Camera is a Multi Channel camera setup with 3 or 4 different cameras in 1 system you can choose to setup what channel you want to view on your NVR. Say you connecting a 2 Channel Camera to your nvr and your on channel 5, when you setup your NVR you would choose the channel of the lens you want to add to channel 5 of your NVR, Lets say Ch2 because it happens to share space of your NVR's CH4 then in your NVR Ch6 you could setup the Ch1 of the camera with the lens facing a different area or maybe it was because that camera is just a 2 lens camera with one B/W and other Color however you don't have to do them channel back to back you could add that channel to say 16 if you had a 16ch NVR and wanted that to be your B/W spot only needing to be seen when you choose. Like in my 16ch NVR I watch the main first 9 channels and the last 7 are on Motion Tour so I can see if there is motion it will pop up on the screen. These channels are less traveled and shouldn't have much traffic if it does I want to be alerted..
Can someone recommend
No Wi-Fi micro sdhc card camera ( not wall plug type) that can be plugged in wall with cord or USB powerbank charger again no Wi-Fi
Ohhh wow, ok, I didn't no 8t was for cameras
i have a dvr that run 7 analog cameras and i have 1 ip camera with my dvr i have to switch from ahd to ip on my dvr box so i cant view all my cameras on one monitor screen and what i want to know is can i connect a poe switch with up links to convert my analog ahd cameras to ip will this work or it doesn't happen like that i don't want to change the cameras i have as they work really good
Unfortunately, we have no way of making a coax camera into an IP camera. A pentabrid recorder can take in all those various signals and display them as if they were one unit. If you currently have one of our recorders, please contact our support department to have them assist you in adjusting your channel settings to get your cameras to show up the way you want. If it's an 8 channel recorder, you should be able to set channel 8 as IP, connect your 7 AHD cameras directly to the recorder in channels 1-7 and have it display in your grid view as if it were physically plugged into your recorder. If your recorder is from another manufacturer, you may want to consider switching to an Elite based system (compatibility with 3rd party cameras would be over ONVIF only, however). You can contact us at (561) 288-5258 ext 2 for sales and 3 for support.
@@Securitycamerakingcom You can always use an IP to Analog converter which is a decoder/encoder. You need to do a little more research.

Pretty well explained, but with a short video like this a lot of information is left out. For example, analog is much more reliable than IP. But setting up IP can be much more dynamic than analog, etc. etc.
Thanks for the feedback Rick! This video is specifically about DVRs and NVRs, rather than the technologies IP and COAX. Keep in mind many DVRs can use IP cameras as well, so IP and NVR are not mutually exclusive. The merits of using IP vs COAX are important topics to cover though, and that's why these topics are covered in our other videos:

@@joeshopsin4060 Exactly, which is why you completely missed the point.
@@masterrickknight pointless comment
@@joeshopsin4060 thanks joe, good stuff
@@nikselec1 Another guy who missed the point.
is there a recording device that does wi-fi coax and poe in one
Not particularly. None of our recorders have integrated WIFI; a lot of consumer WIFI is still inconsistent, unmanaged or provided via ISP and is not our recommended default connectivity option. While we recognize running cable sucks, particularly if you don't do it for a living it really is the most secure, consistent and stable method to connect your cameras to your recorder. Also, it can be the easiest to program on NVRs as at worse, all you have to do is initialize the camera on the channel, at best it's literally plug and play. Coax recorders with built-in PoE exist, but they're super rare and we haven't had one in years. If you have a hodge-podge of equipment, you might need a hodge-podge of connectivity options to make everything talk to one-another.
I never seen a DVR (which uses coax) with built-in WiFi for receiving a camera signal. In fact, I never seen a NVR (which uses IP) with built-in WiFi for receiving a camera signal. I don't know if they are even made. Wireless cameras usually sent their video to a wireless router which sends the signal to the NVR. Your best bet is to buy a PoE Switch for your cameras and connect it to your router.
Can I use NAS Hard drive instead of Surveillance HDD ?
Usually a NVR had NAS built-in, but a NAS is just a 'network attached storage' device..
@@masterrickknight I don't think you understood the question. Do some research and try again.
@@MAGAMAN You can use any hard drive brand you want if you don't care about reliability. But I don't think he knew how to ask the question. Since you were the one who didn't answer his questions you might be the one needing more researching.
ATT upgraded me to 5G and now my Reolinkcameras are not showing on my network Does anyone know how to correct this? their tech support has not been of help.

Does NVR require internet
An NVR does not require an internet connection to operate, especially one with one with onboard POE. However in order to monitor your cameras without the internet you'll need to have a TV or Monitor with HDMI available to connect directly to the recorder.
You can also connect an NVR to a local network and use a PC to view it. Local networks do not require internet.
I would like to make a TV with a DVR by adding a hardrive and needed electronics. Not sure how adapt RF signal to make it work. I'm looking for a partner with the electronic ability. Prototype to be taken to patent office and manufactures. Anybody interested ? The simple DVR should not have cable company and government control. The fair use act of 1976 still applies !
