Basic Network Skills

Description
IP security cameras use a UTP (network cable) cable to connect to an NVR (Network Video Recorder) or a network switch.

This course is about using a special switch (surveillance switch) designed to work with IP cameras and recorders that are compatible with the ONVIF protocol.

You will learn how to configure the basic network settings commonly used on regular switches for IT applications and understand how to use this device to find and manage the IP security cameras in the network.

An IP surveillance system can benefit from the use of switches that can power the camera using the standard PoE (Power Over Ethernet). That's the case for this surveillance switch that can manage every port and control how much power is distributed to the IP cameras.

This course takes you to every single configuration available for security cameras in the switch surveillance mode.

As a professional working with IP cameras, you may understand the concepts beyond network cable connections and start digging deeper into the device configuration, which is precisely what you will have in this course.

The course instructor has more than 18 years of experience with computer networks and security cameras and can certainly help you understand the main concepts of a surveillance project that uses switches.
