Choosing the Right Monitoring Cable: Twisted Pair vs Coaxial Cable for Home Surveillance

I warmly welcome,
What cable should be laid for monitoring at home? Because I read and stupid already, how many professionals so many opinions and one opinion excludes another, one writes that there is bad image quality on the twisted pair and only praises coaxial cables. + 2x0.5 for power supply. The other writes that concentric is obsolete and that now it is only twisted pair (and if twisted pair is a specific type, some recommend cat5, others write a quote: "cat 6e at least, CAT5 was 10 years ago"). Still others lay shielded and make adapters to IP cameras using HD video transformers: http://www.e-alarmy.pl/5829p-pix-tr1dc-rj-hd---zestaw-transformatorow-video-hd.html

So how is it with these cables? and with the cameras themselves? I will be grateful in advance for professional advice, because I am in front of plasters and I want to put it so that in the future you can have the use of monitoring what is happening on my property and not spit in my chin if in a few years it turns out that something is outdated .
greetings

Lay the twisted pair with a good quality CAT5.
In addition, attach the power cables then you will then apply any camera system.
The poor quality of "no IP" cameras over twisted pair is not true. If the lengths of cables are too long then you can release the power via the twisted pair.

Ok, give me only a good quality CAT5 bearing and I buy that (or producer) because allegro says that they have good quality cables. Only do I really understand it - IP cameras go to the router (via twisted pair with power supply?) Directly and I can (but do not have to) connect to the router to record? And with CCTV, first cameras to the recorder + power supply, and then the recorder to the network if I want to have a preview via the Internet (and in this case a coaxial cable)?

Good twisted pair are eg Bitner, Emiternet, LinkBasic. You have a lot of such topics about systems, look for and read.

I bought the twisted pair for about PLN 90 and for about PLN 280, if you want to make sure everything will work, I definitely recommend the more expensive one. These 100% CUs are really hard and it's a pleasure to put them in them, not like the cheaper ones. If you want to have power from the twisted pair then you need to have a POE (power over ethernet) switch with a maximum distance of 100m, but also the quality of the twisted pair.

Selected switches will handle much more than 100m.

If there is a possibility, it should stick to the rule up to 100m.

None of the sellers will assure you that a switch that has up to 250m written will work for you on the installation. I checked with various suppliers and the technical department will not be able to explain

In my opinion, this is the last solution that should be used. The most commonly used should be when someone has laid the wires and we have a distance above 100m.

The difference between IP cameras and AHD (CVI and various analog - what you call industrial television) - is that the IP camera has a built-in webserver (the network address itself has an "http site", you can "enter" it and set it ") works in LAN as a network device, twisted pair and 8p8c plugs (rj45) are used for connections, and the AHD camera is plug & play - no passwords, no login - you just need to connect it - you can use a coaxial cable, and you can use twisted pair (by transformers), the plugs are BNC - the signal is digital quality comparable to IP - although the connection method brings to mind an analog signal.
Registrar in the first case must be hooked up to the network to see the cameras and to have remote access to it (there may be a router without access to the Internet, it is about creating a lan network structure), and in the other maybe be connected to the network to have remote access.
In general, for me, a more flexible system is IP, but it is more difficult to "work around", I would definitely lay down an FTP twist (bitner), because you will do any system on it. I probably would not use additional wires to power the cameras - if it's a house, I assume that the distances will not be big, you'll power on the twisted pair.

Such a small detail: classic analog (CVBS) and popular technologies CVI, TVI, AHD are analog signals.

Super, thanks for the explanation, looking at allegro I found S / FTP for PLN 150 price very attractive for such a cable, it's worth it? http://allegro.pl/skretka-s-ftp-kat-7-drut-awg23-lsoh-100m-leoni-i7285256722.html#thumb/4

Personally, I would not choose it (if I did not have it in my hands), although the description shows that it is great. Go to some local warehouse and check what they have.

attractive price because I think someone has a cable and wants to sell it. I think ...

I would choose any twisted pair because we can go after it with all the analog and effects vide AHD, CVI etc and DUHD (!) And IP.

The auction has 21 items of 100m, so rather some niedadadanie with the place of installation? Well, no more about it.

It may be as the previous speaker writes that he did not get along with the investor and he has a lot of it, the price is very low for quality, I also have a bitner which you recommended in the forum, the price is very similar only for F / UTP kat.5e http : //allegro.pl/polski-kabel-skretka-w-ekranie-ftp-5e-bitner-miedz-i6761436329.html
I am thinking now whether to take a chance and take S / UTP or buy a proven F / UTP?
