Microseven camera network wiring4/12/2023 Third party cameras or indirect connection methods (LAN, PoE Extenders, etc) are not supported. Extended transmission works only with SCW camera wired directly to SCW Admiral NVRs or SCW Extended transmission switches. This essentially works by limiting the data throughput of the line, eliminating the typical packet collision and packet loss that happens with standard ethernet. In 2018 SCW introduced our Admiral and Imperial line NVRs and PoE Switches which offered extended transmission support to allow IP cameras up to 750FT on a single run. Alternatively, you can connect PoE switches to a regular gigabit ethernet switch and then connect the switch to the NVR. This “daisy chain” style setup could extend to multiple PoE switches if each switch can be connected via gigabit ethernet. The second PoE switch connects to the first PoE switch using the second gigabit uplink port. The first PoE Switch connects to the NVR using one of the gigabit uplink ports. The camera network consist of two PoE switches. In port LAN2 we connect our completely separated camera network. This can either be directly to the network or through a gigabit ethernet switch on the network. In LAN1 we have a connection going to the main network. In the example diagram above, you can see a simple 32 camera Imperial setup. Isolated IP camera networks make IP management easier and increases security by not allowing IP cameras to connect directly to the internet. Each port can create an entirely separate network, so you don’t have to worry about IP cameras slowing down your main network. Our enterprise level Imperial line of NVRs offers two gigabit LAN ports in the 32 and 64 channel model and 4 gigabit LAN ports on the 128. When connected the NVR and the PoE switches they do not necessarily have to go back to same direct router or switch - they can also connect to different network equipment if they’re on the same local network. In this specific scenario, all 16 cameras are connected to a single switch, however the 16 cameras can be added to other PoE switches as long as they all reach the same local network. SCW’s support is happy to help with assigning IP addresses and adding them to the NVR. These cameras can be added to the NVR via their IP address on the network. On the same network, a SCW 16 port PoE switch with extended transmission powers and networks 16 cameras. The Admiral NVR then gets connected to the router for local and remote network access. Thanks to SCW's extended transmission option these 16 cameras can be up to 750FT away, rather than the traditional 325FT. This diagram features 16 cameras connected directly to the Admiral NVR. Take a look at this diagram of a simple 32 channel system above. To add cameras 17-32 they must be added via a PoE switch or switches connected to the network. The 32 channel Admiral Pro has the ability to support 32 IP cameras, but only has 16 PoE ports on the back.
