Can additional cameras be added? If so, how many?

Not on this unit as it is only a 4 channel, meaning it can only handle 4 cameras.

Yes you can set up any number of cameras. The display just shows no video where there are no cameras.

It comes with 4 cameras. You can add up to 4 more, for a total of 8 cameras.

You can do all of the above. Full screen on one, 2 cameras or all 4 at once. If you only connect 2 cameras...go into the setup and disable the other 2inputs...that way you dont have 2 black boxes that say no input or something like that.

Supposed to .. however, foscam doesn't offer additional cameras. You have to buy another set of camera and monitor.. Then you can use on monitor for both cameras or one camera per monitor .. I tried, but you can't have both monitors on both cameras .. as soon as you try to sync the second monitor, it knocks out the first >>>I feel, that with the information given to me in the details of this Item that you should be able to buy additional cameras .. but you can't ... They need to tell you that before you purchase .. because it says that it will work up to four cameras .. Im sure it would if you could get four cameras without having to buy the monitor also.. just saying !! Supposed to .. however, foscam doesn't offer additional cameras.

All u have to do is to switch on the second/additional camera then it will be added automatically to your monitor. Then, for viewing it, on the backside of the monitor u will find a switch that has 4 clicks (1 to 4), the first camera will be assigned automatically to number "1". The second one will be for number "2", just switch it to number "2" and then you will be able to view the additional installed Camera :-).Best Regards,Khalid Aljowder

Yes, there are no issues with installing additional cameras. Your network bandwidth would be the determining factor.

No! The cameras and the monitor are integrated wirelessly and do not allow a different monitor to be substituted or added.

You can hook 2 cameras but I don't think there is an easy way to switch. No buttons easily accessible. I only use one camera but am sure 1 probably has priority over the other.

Hi Michael, Sorry for the late reply. Yes, it is a 8CH DVR, so if you want to add another 4 cameras, it is fine. Do you want to buy another 4 cameras from us? Please kindly advise. Thank you.

I only have one camera so I don't know, but I did not see anything in the set up that would allow more than one!

Any base station will operate multiple cameras. I don't think you can purchase a base station without cameras. I've never seen that available.

The software can handle 8 cameras but the poe switch in the back of the unit only has 4 ports. To hook up more than 4 cameras you would have to hook them up to an external poe switch or use a switch and injectors to get the power to the cameras.

If the cameras are actually available from FOSCAM, i believe you can have up to 4.

The entire amount the system can hold and function with is 4 cameras. So if you buy a system set up with 2 cameras you can add two more cameras to your package. If you buy the system with 4 cameras then thats your max for the set up.Hope that helped Kimberly.

I don't know.. I would hope the cables come with the additional camera. I want to add some myself.
