looking for camera recommends

Hi Crash. I did the same project a few months ago but did not find anything which Cat 5 could power. I purchased three of these and have had a great luck with them, although the wire is a bit thinker (video plus separate power feed).

Thanks,

I;ll probably end up going with Greyfox, but wanted to see if there were any alternatives. The homeowner only ran Cat 5 to fd & rd and the house is a flattop, so running cable now is not gonna happen.

For the life of me i cant remember which product line had it. But i have seen some domes that come factory with cat5 connections for video and power. ill see if i have the specs at work tommorow. but they are available

I'd appreciate it ... thanks.

If you can't find suitable network cameras, try something like this:

It will let you feed video cleanly over a twisted pair, and you can use another pair for power. That'll leave you two more pairs for whatever else you want :)

I have a couple of small cams that are connected using cat3 phone wire (video, power, and ground). You could try the cat5 and see if it works. Analog cams can usually operate more than 100' on such a wiring setup.
