Q: What is the maximum recording resolution of the system?

A: The recording resolution is 1920 x 1080.

Q: What is the storage capacity of the DVR?

A: The DVR storage capacity is 1000 gigabytes.

Q: Does the system have night vision?

A: This security system does have night vision.

Q: Can the system be set up without connecting a TV or monitor?

A: This system offers secure app-based Bluetooth setup, so there is no need to connect a TV or monitor for setup or viewing.

Q: Are there any subscription fees for using the system?

A: This system is a one-time purchase and there are no hidden costs.

Q: How many cameras are included in the system?

A: The security system includes twelve cameras.

Q: I need to run at least 2 to 4 cameras 1300 feet away from the DVR. Will the cameras work properly at that distance and does it need to be one continuous cable or can they have couplers in them? Also, can I run the multiple cameras on one cable?

A: We appreciate your question. For the best performance, our wired 1080p cameras should be installed within about 300 feet of the DVR. Running them 1,300 feet away is well beyond the supported distance and will result in video loss, power drop, or no signal at all. A few important notes: • Cable distance: 1,300 ft is far outside the range for analog BNC cameras. To cover that distance, you would need network-based equipment with PoE and signal boosters, which this system is not designed for. • One continuous cable: Even within normal distances, we recommend using one continuous cable. Couplers can introduce interference and reduce signal quality. At 1,300 ft, couplers will not make the distance viable. • One cable per camera: Each wired camera requires its own dedicated cable for both power and video. Multiple cameras cannot be run on a single cable. Thank you for considering Night Owl. Night Owl SP Digital Support Team

Q: Is 60’ the longest cable option? What cable options are there for 100’ runs?

A: Great question! The standard Night Owl wired camera systems typically come with 60 ft. BNC cables, but we do offer longer cable options for extended runs. You can find our official 100 ft. cable here: https://nightowlsp.com/products/100-ft-video-power-cable-for-all-wired-bnc-cameras If you need help choosing the right option for your setup, our support team is happy to assist! — Night Owl SP Digital Support Team

  • Rated 3 out of 5 stars

    Returned immediately upon unboxing.

    Admittedly, we didn’t even hook them up and experience camera quality and interface. Cameras were light/flimsy plastic and only adjustable up down no adjustment left right. These shortcomings made it obsolete for our installation requirements.
