Hi, I'm new to this forum and frankly my knowledge of CCTV is pretty basic. So please be gentle!
I installed a Swann 8 channel system in/around my garage. It is a pretty basic plug and play install and connects to the network via SwannLink P2P. The garage is located away from the house roughly 20M distance so I use a TP Link powerline extender to connect the DVR to that using an ethernet cable.
I have 6 cameras setup and working with no issues for the past couple of years. Currently there are 2 channels spare and following a trespass incident at the back of my garden, I would like to try to extend the system. However, there is no power where I need the cameras and the run is 100M to 150M from the garage.
1) Is it possible to run Power over Coax cable using a BNC connector??
2) if not, are there any options I would have other than getting dedicated power in the vicinity?
3) Or would you suggest an completely new system that could handle PoC or PoE - if yes, what?
Thanks for reading and any advice welcome.
Andy
