Without physical security, network and logical security dont matter.

If i get physical access, im going to break in no matter what. Its not about stealth at that point.

Sure. But it's a military installation. If you got on base and into the server room, the notion that a tiny little lock will hold you back is absurd.
 
I'm pretty sure the Dome cameras are meant to be mounted in a ceiling tile or in a ceiling in general. That might explain the limited mounting options. I also think the white camera's are the weather resistant ones.

Haha- oh pants- you're starting to give me doubts now, yet i'm fairly certain I've read somewhere that they're both:

a) Outdoor
b) Suitable for ceiling and/or wall mounting

a) IDK

b) Yes ceiling or wall but not surface mounted.

^This seems about right, I could totally cut a hole in the drywall to mount it. But bolting it to the surface is kind of awkward.

The white bullet style is the only one that is "weather resistant." I've been unable to find any IP rating information on the AirCam data sheets. But not listed is not promising.

They are meant to be mounted for inside NOT OUTSIDE your going to junk that dome in very first rain or winter storm you get.

Got my first Ubiquity Aircam Dome installed. Still need to focus the image a bit. But its looking pretty good. Don't even notice it if your not looking for it. Can't wait to put some more up.
So far, The airvision NVR software has been kind of crappy. I'll re-visit it when I'm going to run it on real hardware. Right now I've got it in a virtual machine.

Obviously, My truck is gone in the screenshot from the camera.

I know the dome cameras are ment to be mounted indoors. But this one isn't going to get any rain. We'll see how it stands up.

Are you running on Windows or Debian (or any *nix of some sort)?

I tried installing the airvision software on both server 2003 and windows xp. Fresh installs. Couldn't get it to see the nvr side of the software that basically the "backend" of airvision.
I did get it working on Ubuntu (ugh... I'm a RHEL/Centos guy myself). But it was extremely un-stable. Brought the VM to its knees multiple times.

Right now I'm running "Blue Iris Software". Which is alright. But I'll be on the lookout for something better. I'll also re-visit airvision when I get real hardware to run it on.

Yeah we run Blue Iris at work for the server room cameras.....its lackluster at best...thats on a Server 2008 VM.

Agreed. We've used software from video-insight.com and it works pretty well. But currently they don't support the Aircam's. Only works with MJPEG I think, Not H.264 via rtsp.

Yeah, the way the AirCam's work with the NVR, they eat the ass out of resources. I'm looking at a pretty beefy box when we get to this project.
 
Picked this little bugger up today to start my racking adventure:

click for le large picture

I have a DIY NAS and whitebox ESXi running in desktop cases atm.

When the dust settles, the following will be in the rack:
- ESXi server
- NAS box
- UPS
- 1 or 2 managed switches (note sure on what brand to get since I'm on a budget. some ebay'ed Dells might do the trick).

We don't really get storms here in the UK but we do get a fair bit of rain. I'm going to risk this one i think- pump some mastic in to the base to seal around the RJ45 jack then keep my fingers crossed...

The other two i'm going to try and find a way to mount them just under a "lip" outside so hopefully they'll be better protected.
 
I've been eyeballing these to make the "weather resistant" units; more "weather resistant."

For about $40~ with the metal arm and box + shipping you get a more protected unit. We get heavy winds at one of our locations, those plastic arms will likely snap right off.

I think that may be the wrong link... Appears to be plastic, no mention of an arm and price doesn't match :)
 
Thanks for all the help! I will try this all on Tuesday.

It sucks because at my workplace, our admin rights were taken away(due to us being interns and having access to HR sensitive data) so it really limits what I can do.

So far it's been a pretty bad internship....
 
Sold my rack guy's. Looks like im purchasing this, to keep my little monkey out of my rack goodies.

39 handsets, two ATA's with 4 cordless and 1 paging system. As well as setting up the IVR and DID's.

I'm done with 1 of 4 sites with our 3CX rollout.

BLF works great also. 3CX makes it easy to push the BLF config.

I worry for you if it takes more than five minutes to figure out how to use that Polycom.
 
I really like the looks of those polycoms! Wish we would have went SIP to some degree
