About MPX

FLIR MPXTM is a revolutionary video surveillance format powered by HD-CVI technology. MPX delivers megapixel picture quality over coax, meaning you can upgrade your existing analog systems to HD resolution (1MP, 2.1MP, & 4MP) over a single coax cable (RG59 & RG6 compatible).

NOTE
The DVRs covered in this manual are compatible with 4MP (2K), 2MP (1060p),1MP (720p), 960H, standard analog cameras.

6.1 What types of cabling and run lengths does MPX work with?

MPX allows a maximum cable run of up to 2300ft (700m) @ 720p, up to 2000ft (610m) @ 1080p, or up to 1300ft (400m) @ 4MP, depending on the type of cable used (see below). is required that the cable runs be made in a single run between camera and DVR, as daisychaining multiple cable runs together can prevent the DVR from getting a picture from the camera or may impact image quality. MPX supports standard UTP baluns for use with CAT5E or CAT6 cabling in your installation. The baluns should have a 12V and BNC connection at both ends. You can run up to 300ft (91m) per segment of CAT5E or CAT6.

Connecting Cameras to the Local Area Network (LAN)

The M5100 Series (8-channel and 16-channel) can support IP camera channels, in addition to the MPX/analog channels it already has. The 8-channel system can accommodate 4 additional IP camera channels and the 16-channel system can accommodate 8 additional IP camera channels. Since the system does not have PoE (Power over Ethernet), the cameras must be connected to the same Local Area Network (LAN) as the system and powered by a separate PoE switch (not included) or power adapter (not included).

Follow the steps below to enable IP cameras and add them over the network.

FLIR M51086 - Connecting Cameras to the Local Area Network (LAN) - 1

NOTE

The 4-channel system cannot accommodate additional IP camera channels. To connect an IP camera using the 4-channel system, enable an IP camera channel by selecting IP using the Cable Type menu. See 15.1.8 Selecting Cable Type, page 51.

Prerequisites

  • Connect the IP cameras to the same LAN as the system.
    • Power the IP cameras via a PoE switch or power adapter.

Enabling additional IP camera channels in the system:

  1. Right-click and select Main Menu.
  2. Log in using the admin account (default User Name: admin and your new, secure password).
