Ethernet PoE Doorbell Camera

PostPosted: Fri Apr 30, 2021 3:13 am

I would like to get some kind of doorbell camera. All of the ones I can find are Wifi and I do not want any wifi cameras on my system.

I have Xeoma 21.4.2 (the latest).

I have PoE and Ethernet already running to the door, but it is just a cheap small camera that doesn't have night vision or movement detection or a button or microphone.

I would like those features if that is possible.

I can connect the sound and bell button to something else as long as the video is connected to Xeoma for viewing and archiving.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi!
You can try to organize such a door bell camera with the help of Raspberry Pi or other microcomputers. Because of its compact size it won't take a lot of space, so you can easily integrate it into your door. If you don't want to use Wi-Fi cameras, you can connect to the microcomputer USB or analog cameras. With the help of Xeoma “HTTP request sender” module you can connect other devices which support HTTP requests. You can also connect speakers, button and other necessary for the door bell devices to Raspberry Pi (Xeoma supports GPIO, you can find more information here: ([url]https://felenasoft.com/xeoma/en/articles/gpio-module-for-micropcs-in-xeoma/[/url])).
You can read this article about intercom systems with Xeoma to get more information about it: ([url]https://felenasoft.com/xeoma/en/articles/xeoma-as-the-best-security-solution-for-video-intercom/[/url])
