Need Outdoor PTZ, Wireless, Under $500
What is a good PTZ with wireless the can be used for outside perimiter surveilance? Preferably not costing too much, and preferably can be used with Avigilons VMS
THanks
You want integrated wireless? That's fairly rare and tends to be on consumer/residential PTZs.
What type of specs do you want on the PTZ? How much cost is 'too much'? $500, $1,000, $2,000?
The problem is that we are dealing with a very very big building. There are old analog cameras thre, but they no longer work.
We would be looking at about 6 cameras, and $500 is the optimum price (I know that is sortof unrealistic)
$500 for an outdoor PTZ with wireless? Also, even if it has integrated wireless, since this is a 'very very big building' I would be very careful / concerned whether it would work.
Is there a way to have a few PTZ's hooked up to some sort of wireless bridge?
If not, is there an adapter of some sort that can put IP over old analog cables?
Sure, adapters for IP over old analog cables is called "Ethernet Over Coax" (see Altronix eBridge Examined and Lowest-Cost EoC Yet? (EnConn Mini-Power)). Even really low end ones will cost ~$150 per pair.
Alternatively, you could run cabling from a few IP PTZs to a switch and a wireless bridge (like Ubiquiti whose radios are very inexpensive but you increase installation cost/complexity).
Presumably, if he uses analog than he does not need an IP radio if he is already considering reusing the 'old analog cables?'
That said, how much are you going to save going with an analog PTZ?
Ok
Scenario # 2
4 Analog PTZ connect to Avigilon encoder then use EOC to connect to Avigilon VMS
He can get decent Analog PTZ for $ 500 plus ( depend what He want for optical zoom factor )
and EOC He can get way under $ 150 per set
Specific examples of EOC 'way under $150 per set' and decent analog PTZ for $500?
Poster here - Once I am doing that, why wont I have the 4 aqnalog PTZ's going down the coax cabling, and then hook it up overthere to the Encoder? Rather then using the EOC?
If you use new analog cameras, presuming the coax is still good, you do not need any EoC adapters. Just put the encoder in the headend.
You and Him was talking about Adapters
I just join conversation :)
What would be a good analog ptz for that price range?
Sorry, do not use Analog for a whileThe same EOC you posted
Will not say a lot about my suppliers
but 10X from CNB u can find for about ~ $ 540-600
then we have Dahua,TBT and so on....
