    Find the right location for your cameras. There is a special CCTV design software to choose a right location for CCTV camera. For example you can use a demo of IP Video System Design Tool.

    For most homes cameras are installed where the roof meets the walls of the house. This is a good location because it shelters the cameras from the elements (Wind, rain, snow and sun). Also, cameras placed near the roof usually have a better field of view and are less likely to be vandalized. Another advantage is simplified cable runs Power & video) since many homes have a small gap or hole where cables can be run between the roof and the wall.

    Find a point of entrance from the outside of the house to the inside. Most homes have an attic which is a great place to run all your RG59 lines into.

    Designate one location for your DVR and Monitor to be stationed.

    Bring all the RG59 lines into that room from the attic. If you purchased the RG59 cable with BNC connections already attached then at this point you would connect these to the DVR.

    If you purchased a bulk roll of RG59 cable without connections you would need to purchase the BNC connections and crimp each end on, then connect to the DVR.

    These cameras require DC voltage for their power supply. You can either connect the power supply line from each camera separately into an outlet (using pig tails) and an AC Adapter, or you can get an AC/DC power supply box, plug all the camera power lines into the box, then connect one AC power line from the outlet to the box.

    Warning:-In either case you must ensure that the correct DC voltage is supplied to your cameras or they will suffer permanent damage.
