Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Samsung CCTV SDV-410Y Video Door PhoneCustomer Review: GREAT deal for the price! Summary: 4 Stars
My situation is: I own a 3 level home with a gate on the ground level....which means you have to travel 3 flights of stairs to let anyone in or out of my home. I solved this problem by purchasing this unit and installing an electric door strike on the gate. I also solved the "cable length" problem. According to the instructions, installations requiring over 75-100 feet, coaxial cable must be used. By using regular computer twisted cat 5e cable, I had my answer. This was an excellent solution and the unit worked fine. I even used the same cable for the video/audio and EVEN the electric door strike since the cat 5e cable has 4 pair of wires (8 single wires). Since the cable is "twisted", I have no interference and I used over 175 feet of cable. The cable was also cheap compared to the coaxial and regular cable I would have needed for the audio and electric door strike. The image is vivid and extremely clear. Amazingly the audio is also crisp and free from any interference like humming since my installation had the cat 5e cable routed near electrical lines and several fluorescent lighting fixtures in the ceiling. The ONLY complaint I have, is the volume on the outside video/intercom unit. It is low and you have to speak up on the base handset to be heard clearly outside. This was the case when I tested the unit prior to installation using 15 feet of regular wire. Also, a suggestion to SAMSUNG, I would be 100% satisfied with the unit if you were able to offer a model that supported several outdoor video/intercom units so I can install one on every door/gate in my home. If you are looking for a cheap video intercom, I would suggest this model to anyone. Also, if you have cable length problems, or bad picture / audio quality, try my solution using regular PC networking cat 5e twisted cable. It worked for me!
Description of Samsung CCTV SDV-410Y Video Door PhoneThe Samsung SDV-410Y-R Video Door Phone Security System is a basic, easy-to-use video intercom system that is ideally suited to security-conscious business or home owners who want to know who is at the door. This system includes one four-inch flat CRT screen monitor with a built-in telephone-style speaker and microphone for two-way audio to a camera location, but will support up to three monitors per camera. With a smart design and single push-button operation, the SDV-410Y-R allows a remote door lock-release function. The camera with this system is simple to install and utilizes a 0.33-inch B/W (black-and-white) CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor with a 3.7mm fixed lens and IR (infrared) LEDs (light emitting diodes). This unit provides a horizontal resolution of 420 TVL (TV lines), down to a minimum illumination of 0.5 Lux to infinity, and even 0 Lux within a limited range. The SDV-410Y-R's camera runs on 12-volts of DC power via its connecting cable through the monitor, and has an operating temperature of -20 to 50 degrees Celsius. Users should note that the CCD sensor may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light, so the camera should not be mounted or pointed directly at the sun or other bright-light sources.
