bbmikeb Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Hi guys, I'm looking for a piece of kit that will allow me to convert 8 coax cameras to IP then back to Coax. Looked at a few encoders and decoders but none seem suitable.. Basically for a ANPR system when I have 8 coaxs which are wired back to a switch which is on a dedicated IP camera system. The ANPR PC is located elsewhere, my thought being to convert it to IP at the switch then back to anologue at the of (another switch is located here). Any ideas?

BUSTER Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Dynamic do a coax to ethernet adapter which is supposed to be good for 90 metres Quote Any comments / opinions posted are my opinion only and do not represent those of my employer or Company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyTheTech Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Hi Mike, To clarify, are the ANPR cameras and Server analogue and you need to transmit it over an existing IP network? If so an encoder decorder system should work. however this would also depend on the bandwidth availble on the network and how sensitve the ANPR system is on video and lag etc. Edited November 19, 2014 by DannyTheTech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywalker Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 that is a very expensive way to do it!could you not use IP cameras? would take a bit of the cost down (you can still convert them to analog at the dvr end) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbmikeb Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 That's correct Danny but also back to coax at the ANPR pc. Changing to IP is not possible, site spec theses ones and have some existing. The network is dedicated for the CCTV so I can't see bandwidth being an issue...

bbmikeb Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Anyone no any decent 8 Channel Encoders and 8 Channel (BNC) Decoders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyTheTech Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hi, We only do single channel encoders/decoders, but i have seen multi channel rack systems availble at IFSEC from our friends in the far east, not sure if anyone in the UK distributes them though. We dont really get the demand for multi channel systems. (we used to do a 4 channel encoder, but its now obsolete as we hardly sold any). Might be worth testing a single channel unit first, just to ensure that he ANPR server is happy with the video etc. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
