Can this DVR (ds-7208hghi-f1) support cameras @ 1080p ?
I have Hikvision DS-2CE56C0T-IRP dome cameras but it doesn't display any images.
Cables, Baluns, adapters all verified and all OK.

So was wondering if the Dvr only suports 720p cameras or is there any settings to be done ?

According to the specs, the DS-7208HGHI-F1 supports 1080p cameras, but the DS-2CE56C0T-IRP is a 720p camera. It should work on that DVR, however. All of the 1080p DVRs we have tested support lower resolutions. 

It's odd that it doesn't display any images. Can you check to see if the DVR is set to NTSC or PAL? Maybe it's set to a different standard than the camera. I've seen that cause odd issues.

Have you tried connecting it to the DVR with a short length of cable to see if it works?
