I use blueiris. Use the reolink desktop app to enable RTSP and done.

My BI instance is running off an intel N100, 6W of power, handles 12 concurrent video streams no problem, including AI subject detection.
Thank for your info.

I also just bought an N100 EQ12 miniPC , want to migrate off an old I3 which probably takes 40W .

Do you have it running in a VM inside a hypervisor, or just baremetal? I'm thinking of putting Proxmox and a couple of VMs like pfsense, a Unifi controller VM and a Windows VM for this. That way I'd have all the "homelab" stuff running on 6W or whatever on a UPS.

How much RAM ? how big an External drive or SSD ? I have a current 6TB purple surveillance drive and wondering if I should connect it as an external drive, or just go SSD. I think SSD can't be bigger than 1-2 TB for both cost and compatibility reasons.

you route the cables through the attic usually.
Usually, and that's what I did, but that doesn't seem like what the person I quoted was suggesting with a PoE switch outside

I really wanted to get this camera and avoid having 2 cameras in each corner of my garage, but it seems picture quality suffers greatly with the 180 deg cam even though it's using 2.

Will these run fine using CAT 5e or to get full quality out of this would I need CAT 6 (already have cat 5e run and really don't want to run new cables).

On the NVR does it show as one really wide channel or two channels?
Just one channel is used. I have the eight 8 camera NVR and with this camera I have seven others running for a total of 8 on 8 channels

No the picture quality itself is great. All my other cameras are 12mp, and the duo 3 is comparable to those pretty much, although they may have taken two 8mp sensors and since there are two called it a 16mp. The difference is in the aspect ratio. Reolink needs to have a setting for a wide aspect camera in the how many camera view on the DVR.

i would be weary still of installing anything with power running thru a hot attic. the cables need to be superior grade, grounded and secured well away from anything electrical as well. not sure how easy it would to even inspect someone's work in an attic which would be another concern. I think for a commercial building with sprinklers a poe nvr system is fine but in a single family home I would be extremely cautious!
Attics don't get hot enough to matter, and if they do.. you've probably got bigger problems.

Upgrading to Cat 6 is only needed for 10Gbps devices.

5e can handle PoE and these cameras easily.

I have 2 N100's. The first one has two 2.5g ethernet ports, and I run opnsense on it (firewall, router), linked to an aruba 24 port poe switch, and I use Aruba accesspoints with it. The second one has 1 2.5g port, and it runs windows 11 with blueiris. No vms.

I have an old amd 3900X with 64gb ram and 5 22TB drives that runs Truenas for my media server. It runs a bunch of stuff, sonarr, radarr, plex, audiobookshelf, teslamate, etc.

I recently bought cat6a cable and its rated for 175F or so. Cat7 can be rated even higher.
