How to connect network switches to an NVR in IP Camera installations

[@drameriemmanuel1187]

Good had blessed you to be lecturer,thanks for sharing your knoledge

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

We thank God for granting the wisdom. You are most welcome

[@tonny_n]

Another Great presentation..I like the methods you used especially no2 ..if you have multiple cameras you have to put into consideration the BEST WAY to manage Traffic..BRAVO..learn a lot

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Thank you very much Tony for your review as always

[@michaelolusegunakinbote8435]

Yiu are a good teacher. And besides l have issues with 128 channel nvr that goes offline with all the 125 ip cameras installed on it randomly almost two or three times a week. You need to switch of and on before all the cameras connect. What is the way out sir?

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

I suspect network congestion. 1. How many network switches are used in the installation 2. Have you connected the switches through a router? Please link up by WhatsApp on [phone]

[@stephendrawdy1549]

This was great and saved me alot of headache thank you very much

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Am glad it worked for you. Thanks for sharing this experience

[@alexobinyan7399]

I enjoy your presentation. I have a question...I have an installation that is spread out to more than 100meters apart. The longest distance to the NVR is 300m. I am installing Poe every 100m. Do I need to take cable directly from the last Poe (300m) to the router ?

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

I will suggest that you place your router at a central location which can be reached from every POE Switch in such a way that your cables from each POE Switch will be less than or equal to 100m. It is necessary to have all your POE switches connected to the router, that will make your network very fluid and effective. Kind regards

[@alexobinyan7399]

@@Tech_Inside_Out Thanks for your reply. centralizing the router is not possible. I have 6 Poe in 2 directions. 4 in a direction and 2 in another direction. Can I connect the 4 Poe together by looping and then to the router? Thanks 🙏

[@reccakarl]

Will the number of ip poe cameras based on poe switch Ports or the numbers of channel in nvr??? Let's say 40 ip poe cameras do i need a 40 ports poe switch or 40 channels of poe nvr??

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

The number of Cameras you can use depends on the capacity of the NVR, not the POE Switch.

[@reccakarl]

@@Tech_Inside_Out meaning, some 32 channel nvr having 4 poe ports at the back so the remaining 28 channels of poe nvr can be used by external poe switch? Am i correct? Thanks Sir

[@Phavouriteinstallations]

My question exactly?

[@germanmoreno1032]

@@reccakarl You mean like the Reolink rln36 nvr which only has 4 ports at the back? Those ports are for poe switches since that nvr doesn't have a built in poe power injector. Best to distribute the cameras in as many poe switches to balance the load.

[@thamjeedha]

Great idea, if have more switches and router have only 4 port available, what we do

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Hello, You can use more than one router, where you can link one router into the other through the WAN port whilst the switches are connected to each router.

[@michaelolusegunakinbote8435]

Good one from you our lecturer. Can we use only non Poe switches in place of the Poe switches. I am having issues with network congestion. I will give this a trial. Thanks brother

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

You can use non POE switches, provided you have an alternative means of power to the cameras other than the POE Switch.

[@creativemind3562]

Great video, talk about wireless Network bridge

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Thank you. My difficulty currently is the ability to acquire most of the devices. But I believe I will cover all those areas

[@viae3973]

Is there any setting configure in the router?

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

No, i didn't do any settings on the Router.

Very thankful bro I've learn alot from you.

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Thanks very much Mark. Good to hear from you, more to come

[@AbdulLatifHamidu]

Please sir, can we use any of the ports for the connection or there is a specific port for the connection??

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

The normal switch ports should be used for the cameras whiles the Uplink ports should be used to pick from the switch to the router. For the router, any of the LAN ports are thesame

[@MrSaint980]

Your are such a great teacher, can I get your contact I really want to learn more and practically sometimes

[@creativemind3562]

How about in a case where there is a 32 channel NVR and A 32 channel POE switch, how can we make this setup

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Switch to router, NVR to Router

[@profittola3222]

Hello i have a same project 12 cam. The cabling must done in a way that in a switch we have 7 cam and the other 5 , im planin to put 2 switches for the cams and another one to connect this two , a cable from the router to this switch and another one the goes to the nvr. Is that correct?

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

It should be a cable from each switch to the router and a cable from the router to the NVR.

[@profittola3222]

@@Tech_Inside_Out where is the difference cz the cabling is a little bit a problem, and also the router actually has only a port left cz the client as a nvr with other cam already

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

@profittola3222 In that case you can loop one switch into the other and pick from the second one into the router

[@augustineonyebuchi6448]

Can the second setup with the router work without internet? Or must the router be connected to internet before it could work smoothly? Thanks.

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Hello Augustine, Internet is not a requirement for the router to be able to play its role as a gateway to the network. Internet is only needed when you need to connect to other networks at remote locations.

[@MelloThatDude]

Thank you for video. You made it simple and very understanding. Much appreciated sir.

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Thanks very much

[@jarvisprasad1525]

How do you configure the router to connect the cameras, cheers

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

This router is plug and play. There are however customization settings but for having to use it to link he cameras, you need no special settings

[@ajadiolalekan1320]

After connecting 3 POE, then i tried connecting the poe to the NVR but couldn't come up. Although, the distance between NVR and POE SWITCH is over one hundred meters. But when I brought the NVR close to those POE, the cameras came up. I want to ask what could be done. Thanks

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

It is not recommended to run network cables beyond 100m.

[@bitrusdenis2373]

There are poe switch extenders u can use, each 100 meters require one and the maximum u can use is 500 meters

[@cardanium5790]

Hello there .. i have a question. I have only one port left on my router, and i already connected it with a 24-port normal switch-1. My question is, can i have a second normal 48-switch connected with ethernet cable from the first 24-ports switch to extend my network? Thank you

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Yes, you can loop the switches and it would work but the network efficiency might not be very good especially when the cameras are many

[@cardanium5790]

Thank you for your response. But it's not cameras.. it's tv's, 5 laptops, and many Raspberry Pi mostly

[@cardanium5790]

​@@Tech_Inside_Outi have more than 60 Raspberry Pi

[@Phavouriteinstallations]

My question is this sir, this nvr with one port, do they have a number of camera It can take or any number at all

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

They have specific number of cameras they pick eg a 4 channel nvr can take upto 4 cameras and nothing more than 4

[@shahrizal7885]

How to use 2 nvr, 8 camera. 2 nvr same control camera. Help plss

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

In a case like that, you would connect the cameras to a switch and then put the 2 NVRs also on that same switch.

[@bitrusdenis2373]

Will connecting an i.p camera to each switch automatically show up on the monitor?

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

You will have to run a search of the cameras for them to show up

[@joysolutionviewtech6647]

My Jovision poe switch is not powering .please can it be repaired??

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

That will depend on the kind of damage on the switch.

[@joysolutionviewtech6647]

@Tech_Inside_Out I think is power issue please. Thank you

Hi, possible for you to help me setup nvr for remote viewing? I am willing to pay you for the service

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

Yes, i can help. What is your camera brand? Please lets communicate by WhatsApp on [phone]

[@JamesNjenga-r9j]

how about the settings can we have a hint please

[@Tech_Inside_Out]

The switches are non-Manageable switches and so you dont have to do any settings. As you plug, it plays. If there are settings, they should be those on NVR and DVRs for the cameras
