So at night how many feet is the camera good for and can I use it with Swann security system with BNC cables

I found the camera is good for about 50 to 60 feet at night and it can be used with swan or in my case zmodo

If you look at the reviews for this item, you will see a video attached to my review. The second half of the video clearly shows a cat on a fence at night from about 70 ft.

My installation can clearly illuminate approximately 50 feet using IR mode. Additional IR emitters can be added for fill. It works to my complete satisfaction for day and night use. It will work with any system that supports NTSC signals using BNC connectors including Swann.

The cam connects with BNC...Any IR cam only really does about 1/2 of advertised night vision..i bought a couple power splitters on Amazon and a couple external "illuminators" (ir units).. greatley improved range.

The cameras come with 60 feet of cable and a plug in power supply. The camera itself has a male push on type connector and the cable has the male end of the push on power connector. The video is a push and twist BNC type connector. Each of my 530 cameras looks across half of my front yard, over the street and all the way to my neighbor's house. The color picture during the day is really good for the specs of the camera. The night picture has a little snow but it's amazing how well such an inexpensive camera works. It's a good deal for the money. I plugged my camera power packs and DVR into a UPS power supply which keeps it up during power glitches and has surge protection on the power.

I have this camera set for motion detecting, but I believe that is a DVR setting. Camera works great set up this way. Excellent quality. The poset supply that comes with it goes direcly to an outlet. I purchased a separate cable that was 100'; it was a combo.cable that went to DVR and one to the outlet. Hope this helps

It should come with four 60ft BNC cables for each camera. You can purchase other cables from 25ft up to 150ft through Amazon. If your just setting up for your house then the 60ft should work. I would suggest checking out the cameras when the package arrives. Hook them up and make sure they work. What I can suggest to you is to pick up some cameras that have a higher TVL (Television Lines). Like a 400TVL to 800TVL which improves the quality of the video you're seeing. You could buy the DVR by itself, the cameras separate, which some of the cameras come with 50ft BNC cables.

it has a standard BNC connector on the base side also a power connecter. An "F" plug on the camera side along with a power mini plug I have no Idea about SWANN cameras. It is a standard cable for video monitor. Radio shack has the same cord but much more expensive but great for a visual comparison. BNC is a type of push and twist connection but is also universal size.

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.

The camera is great in short distance, up to 20-30 ft. The camera does not have any IR light built in, so you will need at least two or more good IR lights. the quality of camera is good and I use it in every night investigation I do. Best within 20ft but nothng over 30ft

CCTV . closed curcuit tv. Its a security camera. The 700tv line quality is more like 480 or 520. 48 led night vision is actualy prety good. I have mine indoor and al around for the money its good. We use it for a 24hr nanny cam for my wifes bedridden grandmother.

This from the website about the camera; "This camera has a great combination with 480 TV Lines, a 6mm lens and 30' Illumination range. This combination works great at an affordable price. It provides an excellent picture during the day and 30' night vision video in complete darkness. It is a perfect solution for home, halls, warehouses, and small office areas. The camera can be mounted on the wall or ceiling. This IR or night vision security camera is compatible with all professional grade video security and video surveillance security systems. The camera provides a BNC connection for video and RCA connection for power. Easy installation, just plug and play." I own the system with 4 cameras. IR Irradiation Distance: 30'

Yes, you can see IR at night. I use it for 2 legged trespassers as well. Mostly for deterrent. I have other security cameras installed and use this one pick up the back of the property where other security cameras can't get at night.

I have Cam 4PK-600, 4PK Hi-resolution 600 TVL security cameras with 100 ft. night vision. I am sure I ordered on Amozon. BUT, I had trouble with one of the cameras about 6 weeks ago and ask for help from NightOwl, even had a responce # of some kind, and NEVER HEARD ONE WORD FROM THEM. I am not impressed with the cameras at all. And the night vision sucks.

One of my camera cables was too short (it has to go around the house and through crawlspace), and I made my own out of old cat-5 cable. It is close to 100ft. Camera works well. There is definitely no 15 ft limit.

To be honest with you I haven't installed my cameras yet but I've installed three motion detector lights and they work in the 35-40 feet range so hopefully these cameras will too. I should have mine installed in a few weeks so check back a little later for the most up to date answer.

The camera has a standard BNC video cable and 12volt power cable. You can connect the BNC video cable to any compatible recording device. Typically for a home security system this would be a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) that can either record continuously or when it detects motion in the image. Search for CCTV DVR and you'll find plenty to choose from. I have a Zmodo 8channel (it can record 8 cameras at once and allows remote viewing from my iPhone or computer). Be aware that you won't get TV quality images with anything other than very high end equipment but I've been happy with what the Zmodo DVR does for home security purposes.

I have two cameras over 110 feet away. I ordered the 150' and 100' extension cords. Just make sure you route the cable correctly. The power lead has a male terminal on one end and female on the other. Don't mix them up. I ran two cameras out to our detached garage. So I buried the cables in plastic conduit underground. So far, no problems, they work great.
