Digital Reviews Network have published a review of the Swann DVR4-Pro-Net Combo All-in-one kit for remote viewing with motion detection ‘There are quite a few items in the various boxes but unboxing it and putting it together is fairly straightforward. Things can get trickier when you physically have to install the various cameras at the best possible locations. There are a few limiting factors here: distance to the DVR is probably the main one as these cameras are wired and come supplied with 8 m long cables. You can never really cable in a straight line either so the actual distance is shorter too. I elected to set up the DVR in my office which overlooks the main entrance to the premises.

Two of the cameras are aimed at the gate and the entry and a third camera provides an overview of the office itself from the inside. I opted to install these cameras permanently, which means hiding the cabling with conduit piping. This took up a lot of time, including drilling holes in the outside wall for the piping and wiring. This is where I seriously started to think about getting some wireless cameras!’
