not necessary, everything in box...I id however order addl cables for distance on a couple of cameras

Cable is included but depending on the distance you may need to buy additional coax, This pack/model doesn't use CAT5, I believe that you need to look into the HD camera packs to use CAT5 with.

Cable is not included. I needed a long cable so I ordered this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003RCEAB8/ref=ya_aw_oh_pii

I haven't done it yet, but there is a port on the side of the camera you can plug your connection line into. It is the same port I have on my Cannon camera, so I am assuming you can use any connection line you have for your camera.

Larry, Each POE IP camera requires a dedicated Ethernet 5/6 cable. Can't split pairs... Good luck

Each camera connects to the base with a small wireless kit. The kit comes with the connector and cat5 cable to attach to the base, the same as the hard wired cameras.

You can use either. I use cat 5 with video baluns and power adapter (pig tails) wired to the cat 5.

The device came with a CAT5 cable and power cable. I did not need anything else.

we only used the supplied cables. I think you may need a booster to extend cable that far. I would consider wireless if there is power available to the camera.

To be clear, I have not installed the port injector yet. However, the port injector will be cabled (with cat 5e or cat6 cabling) between your network switch and your IP cams.

Yes, as long as you end up connecting the Cat 5 cable to a POE switch, you will be able to access the camera remotely.

power is run thru cat 5 connection, but you may need power supply depending on length of cable

YES! I have installed the 8 camera set from the SDE-5001 System. You'll note the "POE" statements. That's Power Over Ethernet. It only uses 5 wires of the 8 wires in the Cat 6 cable. Cable runs can maintain good quality to 160 feet... sometime even longer runs.

it comes with a female end RJ45(Cat5e) - You will need to run a patch cable from your POE/NVR to the camera - I make my own cables I am an installer -

There's a foot or two long cable between the camera and ethernet and power jack on the camera, then a 6 ft 12v power cable.It's really annoying to cut and extend the foscam cable, since they're coaxial style. It's almost better to just get an extension for the jacks.

No and yes. This system uses a dual (Siamese) cable for the cameras. One is a coax used for the video signal, and the other is a two pair for power. The system comes with the cables. If you really have to use your cat 5 wiring, you could try something like this:12x Camera CCTV BNC CAT5 Video Balun Transceiver Cablebut I have had pretty mixed results with the baluns in general.

You can but I won't advice it. You can use conversation cat5 to coax. Honestly I try it and the quality is not all that grate. If you spend little more time and run cables that came with camera system You will see better quality.

Hi, Sir, You will need a computer to access and program the camera. However, since it is a wireless camera, you do not need to run cat5 ethernet cable to the camera. But you need a lower power source to plug in the power adapter, which is used to power the camera

You can use wifi or Ethernet cable for the cameras but the cable box need to be conect to the modem.
