Hello JIm. Thank you for reaching out! If you already have cameras connected via Cat 5 cables and are looking for a system without cameras, you’ll need a compatible NVR that can support 16 channels. To ensure compatibility with your existing cameras, please email us at tech@swann.com with the model number of your cameras. This will help us confirm if they will work with one of our systems. Your feedback is important to us. LV - Swann Team
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had the same situation and ordered only the "brain" from Swann. Huge mistake. It wasn't compatible with my cameras and didn't work. Returns are NOT something Swann cooperates with, even though they do NOT tell you which cameras go with which recording devices. The lengthy process finally finished in my favor and I bought the kit (recorder + cameras) from Best Buy and plugged in the new cameras and put in the new recorder, feeling safe that if I had any more complications BB would take back the expensive system without quibble in less the 2 months I suffered with the Swann company directly. If you buy the kit from BB you don't need anything else.
