How do you set this camera up? And why does Amazon recommend buying the RCA cables with it?

Hi, You can directly connect the camera to your TV to view. Or you can connect it to a PC, via the USB DVR device ( not included). You need buy RCA cables and power supply separately since they are not included.

The RCA plugs are strictly analog. If you want to use HDMI, you should look for a monitor that has allows digital connection (HDMI. DVI w/ adaptor).

Does it have a RCA input? there is nothing that makes cameras compatible or incompatible, If you are in the correct region and the monitor has then input then you just plug it in. It like asking if a certain dvd players is compatible with your TV.

BNC. These are good cameras for the money. Amazon has BNC to RCA adapters if you need them.

The cables do not have an RCA or BNC connection for TV. Its strictly an IP camera.

the cable has two RCA connectors on each end one goes to the camera and depending on the make of your DVR there should be A RCA plugin underneath the camera BNC connection if you dont know BNC is the twist lock connector at either end of your cable and the cable comes with two BNC too RCA thats has to be connected to have your RCA`S at each end hope this helps know its A little late busy with installing my own system

There should be a three prong connection toward the back. You will connect the black,orange and brown cable to. Then connect the other end to the camera.

No s- video, but you could use RCA plugs, but not sure what the pic quality would be. Time to upgrade

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.

This may help. I had this camera hooked up to my swann dvr and cables. It worked fine, I just didn't like the picture.

you can use the S-video cable and just not hook up the yellow video on the RCA cables (just use the red/white for audio). this might make the picture a bit better than the RCA. cable from wall to RF modulator. I wanted to use this to set up an older VCR and DVD. they were so old that the format didn't work with the new RF modulator. good luck!

I have a bunch of cameras and monitors. Any of them that have RCA connections work with each other.

There is a cable that comes with the Camera, the connection to the Camera is proprietary (not universal). The out connections are regular USB and those White/Yellow/Red cables you hook up to a TV.

1) You can use the red and white (and yellow) RCA cables. 2) Should work all right.

For that, I bought a 3.5 mm to RCA cable separately. It is under 10 dollars typically.

I personally haven't figured that out yet :/ I've been unpluging and repluging the rca's when I want to use my second camera...
