My Security Cameras - Home Surveillance

In this video I show my home surveillance camera setup. I go through each camera brand and type that I have on my house and their location. I talk about how I chose to use dome IP cameras but would use turret cameras if I were to do it again. I also talk about the IT networking aspect of a camera system and usage of network switches that support PoE and PoE+.

Your videos are so helpful to both beginners and advanced BI users. You are able to explain terms like POE and advanced settings for the BI program-nice work and thanks!

Great video. I am running 16 Amcrest cameras in harsh mountain winter conditions. Work great. Only 1 is dome and agree will never buy another one. The rest are Turret and Bullet. Now doing the same with pointing cameras back to the house for same reasons. Once infrastructure is in place with BI, switches etc., not very expensive to keep adding one more camera. BI has worked fantastic for me. Want to add the PTZ one of these days.

Good job Joe! Btw, audio sounds fantastic, really dialed in. Listening on the AirPod Pros. Have a great day!

I like Milesight IP cameras and NVR. Will give BlueIris another try. I sold all my 4K Hikvision IP mini bullets and NVR. Only kept the Hikvision cube cameras for indoors.

I will have to check out Milesight. Let me know what you think of BI. Thanks for watching.

Amcrest fan checking in here. Good video!

[@learnblueiris]

Thank you! Yes, Amcrest has been great for me. Especially the PTZ camera. Thanks for watching.

[@TVJAY]

I really need to get some cameras!

[@learnblueiris]

Yes you do!

[@SpookyLurker]

Why not run 'em all back to a main switch? I know it could be pretty annoying for some, but I'd be inclined to run 'em all back.. in metal conduit. 😈

ME First ! I refuse to use Dome cameras now, Turret's 100% of the way now !!

[@learnblueiris]

Thanks for watching! Agreed on Turrets!
