I agree with your comment but small doesn't always mean inferior as I am sure there are plenty of smaller companies that predominantly do subcontract works, which is basically what we need, rather than a company that we may compete against. Or do I have the wrong end of the stick and you mean ourselves?

Hi We are a small company involved with installing various types of commercial security systems (CCTV, Access Control, etc), but have secured a project involving two gate automation's and are looking for a small partner to work with us on this and future projects of this type in the Greater Manchester area. I say small as we still want to front the installation and avoid logoed vans, etc. Please PM me if you are interested in this and possibly other types of security installations for projects that we are currently securing. PS. I hope I have posted in the correct section! Regards Craig

I think you will struggle with this type of cable and I am sure its against standards to have bundled data cable, probably due to alien crosstalk as the cables will be in the exact same position throughout the run. It was in abundance a few years ago but not seen it used in along time. At best you may get a shotgun type cable. For that distance I would definitely be looking at a fibre link and would be surprised if it didn't work out cheaper due to capacity, plus no issues with distance or interference from power. Have a look in to pre-term fibre if you don't do it in house. HTH Craig

We use HIK regularly and Chrome is a pain in the ASS. To the point I was trying to trouble shoot the DDNS and couldn't figure out why it hadn't taken. Switched to FF for config now and all is good. Had issues with Chrome for a while now on other sites, which is a shame as I fond it so convenient to use with synchronised info to the android phone and tablet.
