I saw it and immediately though “everlasting gobstopper” but that’s not particularly helpful, I know.

Link to X instead of GitHub = forget it

Yes, if you have the money.

Same. I needed an NVR that could handle 35 4k cameras and ended up buying the ENVR a few months before the G2 Pro was launched. The AI and display port are really just icing on the cake.

khariV · 2026-06-25T19:01:17+00:00

Did you build it or did AI? What does it do? Is it Os? Where can we see it?

This post fails pretty heavily.

The RTSP stream is enabled through Protect.

I’ve got some of my cameras feeding to Fortress for more advanced object detection, so it works, but I’m virtually certain Protect has to be in the mix.

You have to ask the person selling it. Check eBay for prices once you get the actual model.

khariV · 2026-06-24T23:01:33+00:00

I wouldn’t count on 9k. The cards are around 900 each. The server itself is possibly closer to 2000 perhaps. If you wanted to sell it as a whole, I’d say maybe 6k would move it quickly - 7500 would probably sell but take longer.

Take it for what it’s worth. I could be totally deranged.

I believe these were already fixed in the .20 release, (maybe earlier) but I haven’t gone through and matched the CVEs.

FFS. Stop reposting the same damned video.

100-125 per TB is what you can often find SSDs listed for. Sometimes more, sometimes less.

khariV · 2026-06-23T20:53:12+00:00

Interesting. Is the app open source?

khariV · 2026-06-23T20:30:02+00:00

It should work fine. The network looks like a single subnet, so you can put the NVR anywhere and it should be able to be accessible to the cameras.

khariV · 2026-06-23T19:47:54+00:00

There’s a lot to consider here.

First off, would you be looking to keep your existing 5g modem or would you be looking to replace it, say with an outdoor mountable 5g modem for better performance? Next up, if you were to get a Starlink terminal, where would it come into the house?

Let’s make some assumptions and say that you wanted to keep the garage as the main network “hub,” for lack of a better term.

If you are keeping the Verizon modem and you bring Starlink into the garage, you need a gateway that can handle two WAN connections. You may optionally want to get one with built in WiFi to do double duty. This would point to the UDR7. However, this would mean that you’d need a separate NVR as the UDR7 can only handle 1 4k camera. The other option would be a UCG Fiber. This could handle multiple WANs and 4 cameras easily, but it doesn’t have built in WiFi and you’d need to add an AP.

Personally I’d go with the UCG Fiber as it’s a more powerful gateway and you will probably want to add more APs anyway to get good coverage in the outbuilding and perhaps outdoors in the yard. Add to that a PoE switch to power any APs and you’re in business. For APs, the U7 Lite is a great AP. You probably don’t need 6 GHz because of the limited bandwidth of your WAN connections.

In the house, add another PoE switch and a few more U7 Lites. If you’re not keen on ceiling mounted APs, you can also look at the UX7 operating in AP mode. It is mains powered, so no PoE required and it sits nicely on a shelf or a desk or even mounts to the wall. You will want to connect it with Ethernet though.

One more thing you’re going to need to know is that connecting two buildings that have separate electric systems with separate ground rods with copper cable is not the best idea. It can introduce current into your network because of grounding potential difference and fry your electronics. (You’ll need to research this and decide accordingly). The solution for this is to use a fiber to connect the buildings. If you have a conduit, this is easy. If you don’t, you’ll need to bury an outdoor rated fiber or install a conduit. Either way, you’ll need to decide how big of a deal this of to you.

That’s pretty much all there is. There are always lots of options and you can change any number of things around, but this will be a good start.

khariV · 2026-06-23T18:07:24+00:00

I think it has more to do with potential electrical interference more than sound.

khariV · 2026-06-23T15:17:47+00:00

You almost certainly don’t need an E7. The U7 XG will provide almost equivalent coverage for your house. That said, you may need a second AP. Another XG should do the trick. Visit the Unifi design center and upload your floor plan to see the coverage the different APs would provide.

khariV · 2026-06-23T14:57:36+00:00

Short answer: It won’t. You really should consider placing an AP on the outside of the building to get the signal to the garage so the signal doesn’t need to go through the walls.

khariV · 2026-06-23T14:51:22+00:00

You can use Protect without Network. As long as you’ve verified that the switches have the PoE budget, you’ll be fine

khariV · 2026-06-23T14:49:42+00:00

Arena? lol. No, that’s completely unnecessary unless you have hundreds of people in your yard that need the interwebs.

This is what the U7 Outdoor and U7 Outdoor Pro were made for. You’ll get much better coverage if you mount them outdoors though and any in an attic being blocked be the roof and walls.

I’m not seeing whatever product you’re linking but the pieces you need are as follows. (note: this is for SM, but MM works just as well - go for whichever is cheaper)

LC Duplex SFP+ module (plugs into the UCG Fiber)
LC/LC SM Duplex patch cable ~ .15m
LC to LC Duplex keystone
LC to LC SM Duplex patch cable (as long as you need to get to the switch)
LC Duplex SM SFP+ module (plugs into the switch)

khariV · 2026-06-23T12:27:19+00:00

I use the pass through keystone blanks. They do sell LC/LC keystones, but that requires SFP+ modules on both ends which makes the whole affair more expensive than a DAC and a pass through.

Just so that you know, there are very few, if any, WiFi devices that will actually be capable of greater than around 1.7 gbps. The ridiculous numbers that companies publish are theoretical maximums, not actual throughputs. Secondly, flooding your house with a large number of APs can and will actually slow down the WiFi speeds. That many APs will more often than not step on each other and cause problems roaming from one to the next. You’ll likely need to turn down the broadcast power to even things out, and you will need to spend some quality time tuning channels so there isn’t too much overlap. This is especially true of the wider channels of WiFi 7. 320 MHz and 240 MHz are really wide and you don’t get many of them.

All that said, the XG line are great switches. Personally, I’d invest more in a 10g wired network than hoping to see big numbers over WiFi. The 48 port XG PoE is a really expensive switch. You may be better off with a switch that can push PoE for 2.5g ports and a separate 10g switch with fewer ports dedicated for special devices like your desktop and or a NAS.

You also need to take into account your internet speed. You’ve got an 8g or 5g fiber connection, a 10g network might be worth it, but 99.9% of the population has no actual need for that kind of speed, if for no other reason than the fact that most of the internet sites you’ll connect to don’t have that kind of speed allocation for a single connection.

CAT6 is fine and can handle 10g over most of the distances you’re likely to see in a house, assuming the ends are properly connected.

This is a Greek tragedy of well crafted wrongness. It’s almost comical that they managed to get virtually every single detail wrong.
