There are 16 wires inside the box in my house.
I dont know which one is to where, but i plugged all 16 into the NVR, with my 1 camera plugged in outside. And i guess the camera never connected because in my monitor it never populated any pic or anything at all.

So then i bought the tester and plugged each and every one of the 16 cords into the tester, one at a time and the tester showed absolutely nothing

The tester i bought basically shows 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 on LINE 1
And on Line 2 is where it confirms if it is wired correctly, when i have the house pre wires plugged in, nothing shows up on LINE 2 .


I will take a pic of the Panel box tonight upload it here for you to see.

Last night i went and purchased this here (LAN Scout Jr. 2 Cable Tester

VDV526-200

When i plug in the prewire that came with the house, it shows absolutely nothing on the tester.
Perhaps maybe it is the wire that have problem....


I did tried it with a shorter cable that comes with for say a router/modem plug into the NVR and the camera and it does work.

So the house came with the Panel where all the cables and what not is located.
That end of the Ethernet cable already have a RJ45 Plug installed, outside my house the cables are not terminated , which i personally crimped on a new plug over.
The coloring matches the plug inside the house as i made sure of that when i crimped the new plug on.

When i plug in the RJ45 inside the house into the NVR and the outside plug into the Camera, it does absolutely nothing.

I have always went with wireless in the past, but i am tired of the not so good quality and decided to go with wired cameras.

My house is PRE WIRED, i have CAT 5 cables at each corner of my house. And they are T568A.
One end of the cable goes into my structed wiring box, the other end by each corner of my house, i had to crimp the RJ45 connector on.

When i plug the end from my wiring box to my NVR, and with the camera plugged in on the outside, my camera does not power on.

But when i plug in the camera with a supplied reolink cable directly to the NVR, it comes on.

Any idea why that is?
