• If you position cameras indoors, avoid pointing the camera at a glass window to see outside. This may result in a bright white ring in the night vision image because the light from the night vision LEDs may reflect off the window glass. Take the following placement suggestions under consideration: • Cabling Distance From DVR to Camera. The video signal sent from the camera to the DVR is reduced over distance. The maximum distance allowed is 330 feet (100 meters). A 60 foot cable is included.
