@@sawsaw2388 unfortunately plastic. I would not leave these anywhere with strong sun. Will probably overheat and will probably degrade the plastic

@@woodandgears2865 yeah massive hole in the wall. I will eventually do a follow up but I don't like these

I agree with you. But I expect at least a quick start guide in the box. Reading instructions and setting up on the same device is a really bad experience

They both have audio as in have mics on the camera. Neither have speakers to do talk back.

Not looked, but I very much doubt it. These are mostly SoC now and ARM based. If you need that, then a full on pfsense box is probably what you need. But to be honest I never hit memory or CPU limits

Yeah you can move the wan ports around just checked

@@JenxTech sensational! Thanks very much for your time, keep making videos!

@@JenxTechhey another quick question - can both ethernet ports be used as WAN ports and the SFP as LAN? Thank you for your time!

@@gooneypip yes. Only on the web interface but you can move them all around. I have port 1 as wan 1 and rest as lan right now.

@@JenxTech legend!

Oh interesting how did you make yours?

@@JenxTech I put the legs on the base first and then put the top on. I didn't realize the side panels would be such a pain to put on with the top already in place

So, as it turns out, someone else must have had this cabinet before me and returned it because I found 4 screws on the 6mm side (inside for me) of each rail that was preventing the side panels from fitting snug up against the rails.

@@tglenn3121 oh dang hate it when they do that

The nice thing was, once I removed those screws, everything came together properly.

Unfortunately no idea on HDMI 2.1 just read lots off comments. It's proprietary signal over the wire so I don't think so as powerline does something similar. Converts ethernet frames into a different signal. But if you have coax in your house I think converters exist for those

Its not it wont release enough heat to cause a problem.

And ours are new (2023).

@@PatriotForThePlanetyeah they really missed the mark on these, really I would be more happy with a Google Assistant Integration so my homes can just broadcast doorbell interactions.

I was thinking similar, moisture/condensation affecting the internal electronics of the HDMI balun inside the weatherproof box. Maybe allow a drainage hole in the weatherproof box ? Nice little video Jenx Tech to show your troubleshooting technique.

@@blokey5160 Yeah this did occur to me, I'm wondering if heat maybe got to it, does get above 100f sometimes here in CO, but humidity is low. Could probably make so it can breath a little better as it's covered can probably put a port on the bottom.

i want to kno to

Oh basically zero, I probably wouldn't want to play games but I am yet to notice any delay.

@@JenxTechthat’s what I’m working on currently trying to run a ps5 over this connection.

@@_Higherlearning ahh ok. Mmm. Well it depends if you're running just the audio or putting the PS5 at the other end and running both video over Ethernet. Just audio I wouldn't worry, but there will be some delay with video (it has to convert and compress it over the wire) so depends on your setup

@@JenxTech hmm. Thanks for the insight. What should I be looking at first to get this accomplished properly?

Thanks!

Yeah, they are designed for that, no problems after years of install. longer servers and UPS's however I would recommend rails (mostly cause they are heavy and much easier to install etc)

Good question, in that case that would depend where you're installing them, by the sea where you are going to get allot of wet weather the G5 probably makes sense as it's a plastic housing and should hold up longer. The G4 will be better with extreme temps and direct sunlight as it has higher operating temp ranges. But as you can see the picture is very similar.

I worked in Bristol, UK for a bit, then London for a few years before moving to the US. @chrisjenx on Twitter (X what ever it's called).

Interesting, good to know, I did think it was odd that drive failed so soon, barely over a year old, if anymore fail thats probably the route I'll go.

Haha, not sure there is a Pt4. Maybe once I finally add the gaming rigs and more IoT stuff.

RAID 1 should let you have a hot spare (as per RAID guidelines), but not sure about UNVR implementation. In theory you can have two hot spares for RAID 1, I do know however if you want to change from RAID1 to RAID5 you will need to rebuild the array as it stripes the data differently.

@@JenxTech yes. The UNVR wants to rebuild the array to add a hot spare : does not make sense to me to loose my data in order to protect it :D

@@aRndBelgianGuy yeah that doesn't sound right. That's annoying. Wondering if it wants to convert to RAID5. Best to ask on the ui support forum

@@JenxTech yes, already asked but as always UI-Glenn aks for information then never replies again 😀

@@aRndBelgianGuy 🤦🏼‍♂️

Good call out, hopefully not, but it's not impossible as they want to install water towers near by which will probably end up with cell towers on them

Yeah it's really not great, we broadcast over sonos/google home now which is much more convenient (video eventually on that setup)

@@JenxTech Home Assistant or Homebridge?

@@shadow.banned home assistant

You mean where the cables go in the house or how the mechanical room is configured?

We spec'd the house with ethernet runs to external places on the property during construction, would be a nightmare now, after building I wish I added a couple more locations tho, pro tip, ALWAYS add more even if you don't plan on using them straight away.. you never know. Some of the things I've thought about is just using ethernet to power Z-Wave/ZigBee sensors etc, much easer than screwing around getting AC/DC power to a location.

@@JenxTech I’m kicking myself now for not taking more time to figure out where I wanted cameras and other devices during the build. Of course, now it’s going to be a pain in the ass but needs to be done :(

@@mandalorian5038 oof yeah I spent a couple of days going over our floor plan thinking about cabling. All I can recommend is if you cut drywall you can get neat little panels that slot in the hole so you now have an access panel for the future

🎉 Awesome, thank you so much!

I feel like it's one of those things, I did it quickly at first when moving in and thought it was "good enough", then I do it again and am like, "how did I put up with this", then I do it again, and again... I think it's one of those things you can spend infinite time on and still not be perfect!

oh thats years ago, so can't quite remember, this probably what I did: - In new builds in the US, they bring two de-mark (CAT6) cables from the ISP ONT (where the fiber terminates) on the outside of the house, so I probably reserved the first two ports for those two cables.

Yeah, something I missed, the operating temp is smaller on the plastic ones, while I found the image quality better, seems they reduced the specs for other things, there max temp is lower two, which is bad for us as means can't put them in direct sun here in CO they will probably overheat. How ever the plastic will be better if your near the sea, that salt air will eventually rust everything!

We had them behind TV media cabinets, desk height, clear line of sight is always going to be better, the main thing if theres obstructions is 5Ghz band gets weaker (doesn't penetrate as much as 2.4Ghz). We had 5 in our old 3500Sq/ft house, and that was more than enough (probably overkill), but I ran more of them at lower power. They are more designed for hotels etc, where you put one in each room and they have brick between the rooms to isolate the signals more.

Yeah, little drop down to pick the lense on the site would be nice, but also a SKU and logistics nightmare, probably cheaper from logistics to just ship both

Yeah I'm a bit delayed as I'm out of the country for a bit, but yeah excited to try these out, as the AI 360 cameras when checking on our cats are "OK" but could be better. Yeah, I'll have to try the USB-C method first it will make more sense in the video why, otherwise will have to make a hole for the brick, which seems to defeat the purpose.

@@JenxTech just got my new g4 doorbell pro poe (uploaded to shorts) plus the AI theta.

Yeah, it's tricky, videos with music perform better (go figure...), I can for sure find something better and probably knock it down a few more db so it's really only between dead air (which I do try to edit out). If you have any suggestions for more neutral license free music I'm all ears!

I very much doubt it, UniFi integration is non-existent with Apple/Google/Amazon. How ever thats a great idea to see if I can get the home assistant voice assistant to react to it as it can stream the audio from the camera! Thanks for the idea!

Thank you! Appreciate the nice words!

Zip ties or cable ties :P Yeah I know it's a pain to change, but to be honest it will stay like that for a few years, then will get redone when the basement gets reconfigured, not a big deal for me, 100% if this was a DC or Ent install, would use something else for sure. Dream Machine didn't make sense here, already have a UNVR have 10+ cameras, I also run the controller in the cloud so I can run a few different sites from a central location, but yes less cameras and only my house then would make way more sense

It's slightly wider from what I can tell, don't think the zoom was any different (although as it's a higher res sensor digital zoom, should, be clearer)

Yea I’ve been using my existing phone lines and terminating to rj45 and got two more lines to do. I’m gonna use an external outdoor box to house an enterprise small PoE switch and send the power to it from one of my inside switches.

That is for my motorized shades. When I run out of ideas, I'll do a video on why you should never install Hunter Douglas shades.

@@JenxTech haha, ok

😂 it's that Ameribrit accent coming out
