Surveillance Camera Set Outdoor

We have purchased two of these so far to use primarily as NVRs for a large number of IP cameras on a school campus. Licensing costs aside, Synology Surveillance Station does a really nice job making it easy to set up and scale with the number of cameras you have. We linked two together, making one the primary and the other a secondary target for recordings. Surveillance Station records direct-to-disk, and does a decent job of adjusting camera settings directly using ONVIF. We have about 50+ cameras running at resolutions from 1280x720 up to 2560x1600, some PTZ, some ceiling-mount fisheyes, mostly wide angle fixed, and everything works pretty well. We were even able to use the manual camera configuration to use some uncommon double-lens cameras. With about 26 cameras assigned to each RS422+, we see about 20-25% CPU on each on average during a typical day. We can comfortably handle 32 per unit, and supposedly up to 40 if needed. With x4 6TB drives in each set in SHR-1 (equivalent to RAID5) we have about a month or so of footage retention. The licensing is a little pricey at $50 per camera (unless you buy in bulk from some european IP camera shops...), but it is perpetual and I think worth the expense. Using two of these units, 8 cheap drives from eBay (luckily these do not suffer from the Synology whitelist) and a bunch of camera licenses, for around under $5000 I was able to build and set up a really easy to use and reliable NVR system with plenty of future expandability. 2-3 users are regularly connected on their desktops without issue.

It works excellent as a surveillance camera for a remote water trough I am using it on. I can set how many pictures maximum i get per day. I have been using the camera for 3 weeks now and it has been trouble free other then a switch on the app turned off for some unknown reason and i wasn’t getting pics sent to my phone for one day until i figured it out. Saves me a lot of time and money driving back and forth to check on it. I would be interested in becoming a dealer for you.

This is exactly what I needed to get my old surveillance camera back up and running. Thanks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quite some time now I have research security cameras and since there so many on the market I was looking for a camera with easy set up and some type of technical support and it would be an additional bonus if it was cost efficient. Then I came across the Eufy Security Outdoor Camera and it is a great asset to making our home feel secure & safe. The camera was packaged very well & the set up was at a minimal. Notifications were instant with the Eufy Security Outdoor Camera and the picture, sound, and light are very clear with excellent image quality. Also the night and spotlight responsive provides visible setting. I am ecstatic about the Eufy Security Outdoor Camera and would definitely recommend it.

I'm using it for concerts, where it improves footage that previously looked more like a surveillance camera!

Can not ask anything better than this. Work perfect with my desktop and my camera surveillance system 2 in 1 monitor

I am using this product in my surveillance camera box and i am most happy with it .I think it dose the job better than the green one that was in the box before.

This very flexible remote allows the camera to make images with you at the controls or in your absence. It is excellent for remote surveillance.

I wanted to set up some surveillance cameras that required PoE, and this switch required little technical knowledge and worked right away!

Set this up in the backyard off the porch for surveillance and didn't expect much. I figured the dog and kid would be there but was shocked to see deer and turkey right next to the house! The trigger time is outstanding, no blurry photos of the dog running around. The night pictures are fantastic, especially at the range that this deer was. The double battery compartment is AMAZING with how long its been running and still have 100%on the second tray. This is a package you could put out deeeep and not have to go back in for a long time. I guess you can say that's a PLUS!
