Little Help for a newbie

[Craigb86]

Hey all hope your well.

I've been thrown into the world of cctv and have a lorex kit which I've set up all went well I would really like a spy hole camera in the front door however the connection differs to my dvr I'm not sure what route to take as I have 4 channels spare just connection is different View attachment 6583

Looks to me that the DVR is 'BNC' and the door cam is 'phono'. Without knowing exact models hard to confirm 100% but a simple BNC plug to phono socket adaptor should work.

Hope this helps. I'm sure the CCTV gurus on here will be able to confirm 100%.

Yep they're BNC connectors. Are they still using those things? I remember hooking 2 vcr's up with them to copy videos, long time ago... Anyway you'll get your leads on ebay, I remember soldering them up lol, dammit I'm old.

Happy to know that you have successfully completed the project. It is always good to experiment on things. Now I'm sure that if you get one more chance to connect a CCTV camera you can complete it within a short time.
