Wanted to know if anyone had experience that could recommend a product. Here’s what I’m looking for.
- 8 Camera system (Options to add more cameras in future)
- I.P Cam’s (wired) with night vision.
- Recording goes to a premise based DVR (Not cloud)
- Online viewing available with smart phone app compatibility.
- Able to view multiple cameras at the same time.
- Price under $1k (yes, the quality will suffer in this budget).

Doing some research I’ve found several things that meet most but not all the requirements. If I go with an older Analog BNC cabled kit, I can get all of this. However BNC is expensive and old. Prefer I.P For something more moderate and for future scalability to add more in future.

Currently looking in to this but thought I’d ask if any of you had experience with something like this. I have deployed DropCam’s, which are awesome. However the DVR system is cloud based with a subscription cost per month. Plus they are Wireless. I’d prefer wired and forgo say buying an aero hive commercial grade Access point to handle all that WIFI communication.

Appreciate any experience you have.

Thanks
