NVR
Your wireless IP cameras will reach up
to 300 ft. wirelessly. Therefore, proper
placement of the wireless NVR in your
home will help ensure you achieve
maximum coverage.
Placing the wireless NVR centrally in
your home, will help make certain that
no matter where you mount your cameras,
they will be able to wirelessly connect.

When your wireless signal is transmitted through various materials, such as walls
and windows, the signal strength is affected. Though the NVR and wireless camera
may be very close in proximity, you could still notice high signal interference if the
signal passes through certain obstacles. For instance, if the signal passes through a
concrete wall it will be severely weakened. Please reference the below chart to see
which obstacles highly affect your signal and which do not.
How Obstacles Affect Your Signal Strength
Your Wireless NVR must be powered on
using the NVR power adapter. Similarly,
each wireless camera must be powered
with a camera power adapter. Though
these cameras wirelessly transmit video
to the NVR, they are not battery powered,
and must therefore be powered via the
included adapters. Each camera within
your system will come equipped with its’
own camera power adapter.
Powering the NVR and Wireless Cameras
NOTE: If your setup requires the signal to be transmitted through an obstacle that
severely weakens it, you can use the 9 ft. Wi-Fi Extender Antenna included with your
system. The Extender Antenna can be used to bypass the obstacle weakening the
signal. Simply replace the white Camera Antenna with the Extender Antenna and
then mount the Extender Antenna on the opposing side of the obstacle.
