Frequently asked questions
Do IP cameras need PoE?
PoE simplifies power and data on one cable. Non-PoE IP cameras need a local PSU plus network.
Can I view IP cameras on my phone?
Yes through the NVR or camera app when internet is available.
How much bandwidth do they use?
Remote viewing can be limited by your upload speed. We tune bitrates during setup.
Is cat6 required?
Cat6 is preferred for new runs. Quality cat5e can work on shorter links.
What HDD size for 8 IP cameras?
Start at 2TB for short retention; 4TB if you need longer history.
Can you migrate from analog later?
Yes in phases, but hybrid plans should be designed first.
