  • QuestionIs this WiFi compatible?

    Asked by Nando.

    • Answer Thank you for the question and happy to help. This system uses wiring to run audio/video/power to each camera from the recorder base. That is then capable of connecting to your local network for remote viewing from any location with internet. You may also add WiFi connected add-on cameras if you choose.

  • QuestionCan I run these wires on the outside of my home exposed to such elements as rain, sleet, snow, ice and sun?

    Asked by KentuckyBlu83.

    • Answer Thank you for the question and happy to help. While it is possible to run these cables outside we advise against it. Protection from the elements (particularly sun and at connector points water) are key to proper performance. If there is an awning or overhang that can protect the cabling that would be highly advised. We do offer A/C powered Wi-Fi and Wire Free battery based systems if that is an option for your budget. Please let us know if we may provide any additional support. Night Owl SP Digital Support

      Answered by Night Owl

  • QuestionCan the wires be ran outside? Or do they have to be ran inside due to hot/cold weather?

    Asked by Customer1st.

    • Answer Thank you for the question and happy to help. We advise our system be operated within the specified weather ratings for the camera and recorder, but cabling can be run outside if needed. We would advise to keep it off the ground and protected from the sun to extend the life of the cable sheathing and away from animals. Night Owl SP Digital Support Team
