October 8, 201510 yr comment_432093 Hi, Recently looked at a PTZ which was wired to a switch in cat5 (both terminated rj45 at the switch and in the camera) and it then had a cat5 patch lead from the switch to the dvr which brought it into the system and its own seperate local supply wired into terminals in the PTZ, is there a name for this as i havent come across it before, its not HD its an ancient system which presumably was cutting edge on install because the quality is much better than most of its age! I cant remember the name of the dvr manufacturer but its old american pc based. Any ideas or previous experience with this sort of PTZ? Basically want to know if I upgrade to an HD IP PTZ and upgrade the switch to a PoE switch will it come on the ancient dvr or any potential issues?

October 9, 201510 yr comment_432126 Sure the cat5 from the camera isn't wired into a patch panel and not a switch? Does the patch cable to the DVR turn into BNC?

It's definitely a switch, and no it goes from switch to the back of the DVR.

December 8, 201510 yr comment_436484 Sounds NVT. I went up into the attic...I found a Stradavarius & a Picasso. Unfortunately..... Stradavarius couldn't paint, and Picasso made a shocking fiddle.
