Testimonial: "I have tried other software to manage my cameras and find them hard to use and get really frustrated. I have visited your demo and can't say enough about how easy it is to use. I like the clean look and the navigation is simple. The video quality is great too. I will definitely be visiting your web site again and you will probably be hearing from me soon."

Cabling Guide
Power-over-Ethernet Installation
Power over Ethernet or PoE technology describes any
system to transmit electrical power, along with
data, to remote devices over a standard twisted-pair
cable in an Ethernet network. This technology is
useful when it would be inconvenient or infeasible
to supply power to each camera. Maximum distance per
run is approximately 300 feet. The Category 5 (Cat5)
cable runs may be either plenum or non-plenum.
For the byRemote surveillance system using PoE-ready
cameras:
-
Run 1 Cat5 cable
to each camera location and terminate with RJ-45
connectors at both ends. See RJ-45 pin-out
below.
Low-Voltage
Installation
When the cameras are not capable of
Power-over-Ethernet a power source will have to be
provided. Instead of having to install an electrical
outlet near each camera location, it is recommended
to run 2-stranded, non-shielded 18-gauge electrical
wire to each camera location. This can be run at the
same time the Cat5 cable is run. All cabling should
come back to the main location where the router will
be placed (typically the office area).
For the byRemote surveillance system using non-PoE
cameras:
-
Run 1 Cat5 cable
to each camera location and terminate with RJ-45
connectors at both ends.
-
Run 1 18-gauge
electrical cable to each camera location and
splice with the power supply. Please note
whether the camera is AC or DC on the power
supply that comes with each camera.
RJ-45 Pinout
Ethernet 10/100 Mbit (Cat5) network cable wiring
and layout of 8 pin RJ-45 male connector. For
straight-through cable, terminate the same at both
ends of the Cat5 cable.
