Questions on Vivotek IP7330 Network IR Bullet Camera

  • Hi, If I had multiple IP7330 cameras on my premises, would it be possible to view them all remotely (one at a time) over a broadband connection using a web-browser ? Thanks
  • Hello Tim,
    
    Yes, you'd need to set up your router's port forwarding to make each individual camera accessible at a separate port number of the main IP address for your premises.
    
    If budgets permit, you might like to consider a QNAP NVR, by accessing that remotely you could view each individual camera, but also multi-camera views and recordings ...

  • I've bought a number of these cameras from you and have found them to be superb. I'd like to mount one on a lamp post. Is there a pole mount bracket available?
  • Hello Brian,
    
    Thanks for the feedback. There isn't a specific adaptor to pole-mount the Vivotek camera brackets, if you search the site for EHPMA (pole-mount adapter) you'll find a bracket baseplate which clamps around a lampost. You might need to drill your own holes to suit the Vivotek bracket base mount, but you should be able to use it.
    
    I hope that helps ...

  • If I have a networked cat 5 point available for this camera, supported by a POE switch, can the camera be connected / run using a single RJ45 connection?
  • Hello Dean,
    Yes, the Vivotek IP7330 network camera is POE compatible, so you can use a power over ethernet switch to supply it and make the network data connection.

  • Hi,
    Will this camera work with Zoneminder (http://www.zoneminder.com)? I've heard that other cameras in the range do (7138 7131) but want to be sure.
    
    Thanks
    
  • Hello Mike,
    
    I think it will, but cannot find much in the way of hard confirmation - feel free to avail yourself of our 'Buy & Try' offer :-)

  • Is it possible/sensible to open the back of the camera and replace the integrated cables with longer ones? Will the waterproofing be compromised?
  • Hello Neil,
    I agree that the 'umbilical' cable from the back of the Vivotek IP7330 is too short for practical installation purposes, we have taken this up with Vivotek but no change yet!
    The Y-cam bullet has a much longer cable connection.
    The best solution seems to be to place a weatherproof box adjacent to the Vivotek camera and to make your connections within that.
    It would be quite tricky to make a good quality job of actually replacing the umbilical, you may need to solder connectors to pcbs within the camera, and would have to be very careful to ensure that the cable entry remained waterproof.
