RLK16-410B8-5MP

As of right now I have installed 3 of the 8 cameras in the back of my house and garage so far. Running the wire is a task but for the speed and reliability of having the cameras on Ethernet and the ability to access the camera multiple ways instantly is absolutely worth the hassle of running the wires from the cameras to your NVR. I decided I wanted to run my own cat6 Ethernet cable rather than using the cabling provided so that I could cable manage and be a little more accurate with the cable length than the cables that were provided. I also chose to buy a 10U server rack to mount in my basement to hold my NVR and a patch panel to run the cat6 to. I also decided to buy an UPS because in the case of a power outage I still want my security cameras to run. I then got myself 8 security camera junction boxes(on Amazon), some 1/2 in conduit and connectors and a main junction box to run all the conduit to. I then drilled an 1 inch hole in the back of the junction box picked where I wanted all the wires to go into my basement and drilled about a 1 inch hole from the outside of my house to inside my basement. It’s taking me about an hour and a half to about two hours per camera after I got the main junction box, server rack and NVR all set up. That means installing the camera junction boxes where I want the camera, running the cat6 through the conduit, tipping the cat6 cable to connect to the camera through the junction boxes and to the patch panel on my sever rack, hanging the conduit and running it to the main junction box and finally installing the cameras onto the little junction boxes. It is a chore but again for the ability to access the cameras through multiple means instantly is worth it. The quality of the cameras is great especially during the day and the night vision works well in dark areas at night. If any areas are lite at night or cars drive by, I recommend turning the IR lights off but keeping it on auto day and night. That will eliminate the night vision but will record in black and white, which if there is a street light for example on, then the quality will be fine. Otherwise you might get some unwanted glare during night time in those areas. You have the ability to connect the NVR via HDMI to a monitor or computer and can access the cameras and setting right there. You can also get access to the stream anywhere with the app. You will need to creat a log in on the NVR first or use the Admin login information to be able to initially view your cameras but after the first time you won’t need to log in again. And finally you can also access your cameras anywhere on your local network by just web browsing the IP address of the NVR. All of these means of viewing the video stream are instantaneous and light years more reliable then any wireless camera on the market. Even if you don’t want to install the cameras yourself, you can hire a company to run the wires for you. Just tell them you already bought the security system. You’ll probably spend close to 1,000$ I’m sure. Especially if you have 8 cameras to run wires for bit your already about to drop 800$ on the security system itself, just saying. Overall great product so far. Absolutely recommend, especially if you have some sort of general understanding of running Ethernet or wiring in general. And some patience when running the wire if you chose to do it yourself.

I have purchased several camera systems for various locations and they work great; the entire system is very easy to install and operate. The cameras in general are robust and of excellent quality, including everything necessary for a secure outdoor connection that withstands direct rain and extreme sun. Beyond the excellent product quality, their technical support and after-sales service are even better. I strongly recommend purchasing Reolink products.

Ive purchased and installed camera systems in the past few years, for family, at business, etc. So I wasn't looking forward to replacing our aging system at our home farm. Bad memories of Open Ports, DDNS setup, flaky phone apps, cameras intermittently working, and pulling BNC type wire to a bunch of new camera's filled my mind. After serious research, I finally decided on the Reolink POE system. After setup, I have to admit Im very impressed. First pleasant surprise was the ease of connection setup. Simply scan the QR code on front of the unit, and suddenly we were communicating with all the cameras. Next pleasant surprise was the iPhone app. Again, we just scan the QR code with the iphone camera and instantly we were seeing all of our cameras. No port forward setup, no DDNS configurations, etc. It was great. And now for my favorite surprise - wiring. I discovered that if I installed an inexpensive POE Switch at a remote location, I could then run cameras from this POE Switch, rather than pulling new wire all the way back to the Camera NVR unit. Great! I installed a 5 port POE Switch in our barn (about 250ft away from the NVR unit that is in basement of the house) and connected it to our router. Now, using CAT6 wiring, I can add up to 4 cameras in and around the barn, without requiring individual runs all the way back to the NVR. Extended my distance away from the NVR too! Simply fantastic. We currently have 11 cameras online, including 1 to watch the nearby field and treeline for wildlife. The grandson loves to watch this camera at dark, looking at the deer, and zooming in with touch of a finger. We are still setting up the motion sensitivity (a little too sensitive at factory settings) and push notifications, but it should be a valuable addition to our farm when finished. Not disappointed in this purchase, would certainly buy again.

Es un producto bien hecho, trae todo lo necesario para instalarse fácilmente, La aplicación en el móvil sumamente practica, cumplió con mis expectativas. La relación precio-calidad de primera, estoy satisfecho, de hecho compre una cámara PTZ RLC-423 y dos RLC-522, para completar mi sistema de circuito cerrado.

I've tested a few different systems both NVR based like this one and Ring/Arlo cloud based systems too. I needed a NVR based system for a shop with the primary purpose of 24/7 recording. I installed this with 10 Reolink 5MP cameras and it works flawlessly. The mobile app is great for Android. The Windows PC app is also great. and the NVR itself is very easy to navigate around. best of all it just all worked out of the box. I routed all the cat5e cables, plugged in the NVR, plugged in the cameras and the NVR automatically added them. The default setup of the NVR works super well and I've tweaked some of the motion and recording settings. All up this is a solid 5 star system and frankly I was surprised just how good it is and how it competes with the other bag brands out there in terms of mobile apps and reliability. Been going several weeks and not an issue to report. Nice one Reolink!

Esta súper el producto. Fácil de instalar, configurar y de esclente calidad. Lo volvería a comprar.

Easy to set up and use. Quality is perfect. Great cameras, very easy to install, configure and quality of images is great, including night vision (8-12 meters distance) Smart phone app was easy to use and install. Works great

I only use Reolink systems and cameras as they are so easy to set up and ease of operations. Recommended to all AAA+++
