Testimonial: "Having a video surveillance system in our 24 hour health club was essential for us to open our doors. The security and peace of mind that it gives our members is important to them and to us. We can check in on our health club remotely anytime we want. This gives us the ability to get other things done in our lives by not having to have an employee at the health club monitoring it all of the time. The byRemote system is easy to use and the service and support that we have received has been excellent."

Cabling Guide
Power-over-Ethernet Installation
Power over Ethernet or PoE technology describes any
system to transmit electrical power, along with
data, to remote devices over standard twisted-pair
cable in an Ethernet network. This technology is
useful when it would be inconvenient or infeasible
to supply power separately. Maximum distance per run
is approximately 300 feet. The Category 5 (Cat5)
cable runs may be either plenum or non-plenum.
For the byRemote surveillance system using PoE-ready
cameras:
-
Run 1 Cat5 cable
to each camera location and terminate with RJ-45
connectors at both ends. See RJ-45 pinout below.
Low-Voltage
Installation
Most commonly, the cameras will not be capable of
Power-over-Ethernet and will also need to be wired
for power. Instead of having to install an
electrical outlet near each camera location, it is
recommended to run 2-stranded, non-shielded 18-gauge
electrical wire to each camera location. This can be
run at the same time the Cat5 cable is run. All
cabling should come back to the main location where
the router will be placed (typically in an office
area).
For the byRemote surveillance system using non-PoE
cameras:
-
Run 1 Cat5 cable
to each camera location and terminate with RJ-45
connectors at both ends. See RJ-45 pinout below.
-
Run 1 18-gauge
electrical cable to each camera location and
splice with the power supply. Please note
whether the camera is AC or DC on the power
supply that comes with each camera.
RJ-45 Pinout
Pinout of Ethernet 10/100 Mbit (Cat5) network
cable wiring and layout of 8 pin RJ-45 male
connector. For straight-through cable, terminate the
same at both ends of the Cat5 cable..
