• A:Answer I believe the DVR has to match the cameras installed to work properly. Get same same model that went bad. The POE cables can be reused.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between security camera install SKU #5808421 for $149.99 and SKU #5809015 for $599.99? Both are for installing 8 cameras.

Asked 5 years ago by Dee.

• A:Answer Hi there. Thanks for your great question. The difference between these two SKU's is that the 5808421 option is for wireless cameras and the 5809015 option is for wired cameras which take a lot longer to install. That's why the price is so drastically different. I hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

Asked 8 years ago by Roadside.

• A:Answer Don't know I live in North Carolina. It was pretty easy to set up the camera - the power cord is long enough to mount anywhere. You do need a strong wi-fi signal.
