Evelina69 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I have some units which are currently fitted with CCTV. I have recently purchased two units opposite and want them fitting with cameras (four). The distance is about 300 metres accros the yard but I would like to view these additional cameras with my existing set-up. It would be great if these could be connected to my existing 16 channel dvr. There is no way of these additional cameras to be wired so the set-up would need to be wireless. Is this possible?

james.wilson Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 You will need something to split the screen at the remote location so you can either use a dvr to do this or a splitter only. Anything is possible depending on the available budget securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

james.wilson Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Use decent cameras and a wireless transmitter.

PeterJames Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 The cameras output would go to the monitor first before they are transmitted to the DVR, or you could use two wireless recievers one at the monitor one at the DVR Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/32977-adding-cameras-to-new-unit-over-yard/#findComment-284474 Share on other sites More sharing options...
