Standard Coxial Cable Connection!
Plug and Play – Consistent Video Signals
Cost: Analog cameras tend to cost less, sometimes even a lot less, than their digital counterparts.
Simplicity: DVR is easier to set up and understand for most.
Lower Bandwidth Requirements: Analog recorded video files tend to be smaller, and they are transmitted to the DVR over coax instead of LAN, so transmitting them doesn’t take as much bandwidth. Plus, DVRs also usually only transmit the information and use bandwidth when someone is viewing the video, rather than on a more constant basis.
- Not to worry about the compatibility issues any more as long as there is a standard BNC cabling connection in your old system.
- The DVR is also compatible with all Sansco cameras, and most IP security cameras, simply hard wire your IP cameras to your router and start accessing on your DVR.
- DVRs signals are much more stable, compared with wireless NVRs.
- Expandable System – Support up to 8 cameras.

Found it hard to understand at first,as I was used to an old archaic plug & play CCTV unit. This one has Excellent picture quality & I’m learning new things everyday.
I am only using it indoors, but it is good enough to ensure that my business insurance is valid.
1080P resolution and good remote access through my phone.
Good system, good price.
Had system up few months now great cctv gear for the price good picture quality…had a couple issues with night vision that has resolved and overall really happy with product and would recommend!
Thee cctv is a fantastic buy for your money and comes with 24/7 great customer service a must buy definitely.
Good quality cameras, very easy to install, decent quality night vision, no issues!
These cameras are really good value, I live in two story terrace house they are positioned very high just below my guttering so no one can tamper with them I get a good night time view of my oil tank and my car.After sales query very helpful.
We bought and installed this system in 2019 and it has worked flawlessly for years. Picture quality is great and it does everything we wanted. Menus and setup are a little tricky to follow, but if it had a flashy menu etc then it would cost more and it’s really not necessary since it does the job and you rarely need to alter anything other than the clock which runs fast. Motion detection was a little too sensitive but we have a lot of plants/ windy site and have just turned that function off which is not a problem. Our system recently developed a hard disk error (late 2022), but I contacted customer services via a direct email address (not one of those annoying online forms) and got a really helpful response the following day! Excellent value for money and great customer service.
Very happy with this security camera. It’s easy to setup. You can manage the system on your phone or you can link up a computer monitor.
It comes with 4 cameras which are easy to install and this product also has a built in hard drive so you can record footage.
Also the customer service is very good. One of our cameras stopped working and the supplier immediately sent a replacement.
I highly recommend this product.
Straight forward to install, great product with excellent after service. Had a problem with one of the cameras they talked us through what to check it improved it but still wasn’t quite right so they just replaced the camera no problem. Would highly recommend.
I’ve have set up all 4 camera but when I go onto playback its only showing 2 out of the 4 channel that been recording? why cant i have all 4 camera recording but can have 2 recording ???
Having purchased the system in 2019 I have had excellent results and piece of mind by the security CCTV provides. The remote app for accessing the system on my android phone/iPad is also a boon when away from home, particularly with the recent updates for security and better access.
The system was bought as a kit which came with full and simply detailed instructions for installation and set-up.
Recently the system inexplicably stopped working so I contacted sansco service department for help thinking that due to the age of the equipment I could be faced with the cost of replacement.
But, the response was fast and simple and importantly without the need to replace more than the power supply adapter.
The system is now back up and running: thank you sansco.
Overall an excellent system at a sensible price with first rate back up.
after having my motorbike stolen from my house, we bought these cameras, after easy enough set up they started work right away, good quality product for the price much better than i was expecting. would advise anyone to have these for even just feeling safe at home,
very happy custome
I had issues initially with water getting into one of the cameras. But the ‘help team’ were great and got me sorted quickly replacing faulty camera. Good quality once working
Once you have navigated your way through the menu set-up protocol,you are rewarded with a very intuitive and responsive system.
When you are setting-up Internet online functionality,judicial use of the NVR’s ESC button,will help you to dodge some of the unnecessary procedure which the O/S tries to insist on (this tip is gold dust,so don’t say that I didn’t tell you,as it is never mentioned in the extensive manual!)
My four stars are in no way a reflection of the systems quality or performance,only that it is made to a price limitation.
My unit came with one of the video cables almost totally sliced through,probably caused by some overzealous shrink wrap cutting at the factory.
I only mention this,as no sooner had I reported it to the seller,it was replaced immediately,so top marks for that!
Anyway,I have no hesitation in recommending this product and its supplier.
i would recommend this to everyone as i have installed and because of something under investigation that i can not talk about but i can say that a police officer has seen the night vision and was taken back at the quality of it and informed me that its the best night vision he had ever seen and that i had a very good CCTV Camera System and ask how long it recording for with 4 cameras and loop recording and told me that he will be buying one for his home
very easy to install and to use with excellent results if it had more that a 5 star rating would have give it more
I bought this to monitor the comings and goings around my house. We live at the end of a lane off of a close. For some reason there is a lot of traffic, both foot and vehicular, and it is worrisome to say the least. The installation is intended to be both a deterent and a security measure.
Installation was fairly simple. I used a 16mm bit to bore through the wall for the cable. It was a bit tight so I wouldn’t recommend trying anything smaller. As I rent I decided to install the cameras onto a weatherproof junction box and then to the wall instead of directly to the wall. My thinking was that should I move all I have to do is purchase more junction boxes, swap the lid with the camera attached with the new lid and presto, no unsightly holes in the wall. Plus I have boxes ready for my next location.
I mounted the DVR in the loft with a spare monitor I had onto the (now unused) chimney. This kept all of the cabling upstairs and out of the way. I ran the network cable downstairs through an existing cable channel (already being used for the other connections in the house) and plugged it into the router. Now, apparently some people are able to plug and play. I was not so fortunate. I had to do what is called “port forwarding” as admin in the router. Although the instructions make it sound simple the fact is that if you aren’t network savey it is confusing. The other problem I encountered was that the remote software (I was installing to Windows 10, Ver 2004) does not come with instructions nor are there any as part of the program itself. I imagine if you have used similar software in the past you might be ok, but if you haven’t, well let’s just say that it isn’t very intuitive. Fortunately the tech support at Sansco was brilliant. They sent me 2 links. One to the installation instructions and the other to a YouTube video from a guy that showed how to use the remote software. Between the 2 all came out working just fine.
The only problem I have yet to reesolve (although tech support has been working with me) is that the IR isn’t very bright. Current supposition is that installation of a stand-alone IR floodlight is the answer. Also I used an 8-way splitter for the power supply instead of buying another one with another 4-way slitter. I’m suspecting that might be too much of a drain since I’m running 6 cameras. I will be buying another power supply soon.
Overall I would happily recommend this for even a beginner. Ask Sansco for the 2 links and you’ll do fine.
very easy to setup and the remote access works well
Easy installation. Very good picture day and night. Reliable security kit at a good price and quality.
Night vision could be better, can’t fault the quality during the day, overall good value
Hghi quality product. I would recommend this system to anyone. Customer service second to none, they dealt with my query very promptly…
A very good product not had time to use all the features yet but so far so good
Used these cameras for over two years now, happy with the video quality both day and night time.
but one camera up and working. In HD both night vision and picture quality excellent. Have not yet been able to test motion detection.
Not a bad CCTV for the money. Not as sharp at night but still ok. Much better than the 720p one I had before.
Installed system in 2018. Have 8 channel unit and am very pleased with performance. Support was very helpful.
Bought this CCTV system and it is really good picture quailty. The customer support is very good as well. Thankyou for a quailty service
This CCTV system is by far the best available on the market system for it’s price and quality. The DVR has many useful options such as email alerts and others. Also the customer service is really good, as staff is responsive and helpful.
It’s OK for the price. In daylight picture quality is good, really good and acceptable at night . 1 of the 4 cameras I received developed a fault, stopped recording after 2 months, contacted support and received replacement within 4 days.
Ordered this cctv as was impressed with the system when me and my brother in law installed his together, which I found easy to install and set up and was impressed with the picture quality. Would totally recommend pleased so far, app works fine on my iPhone.
brilliant product camera and picture quality is excellent. I had a bit of trouble with 1 camera I contacted Sansco on Facebook and with in a matter of minutes the issue was resolved excellent service would recommend to anyone
Great product and service. Easy to fit and great customer service recieved as and when required. I would recomend this product 100% for the price. 5*
Great product. Had an initial issue with a cable but I made contact on Facebook and it was resolved immediately, brilliant thank you
Got mine in good time, works really well running 7 cameras on it, inside and out, good picture quality night and day, I upgraded mouse as the one it comes with is a bit cheep and nasty, hd to buy another power cable as its an 8ch but only comes with a 4ch lead, app plays up a bit, it keeps loosing my device detail’s, but works fine once found, a good big of kit for the money
I set up and wired three of the cameras within about 3 hours. Instructions were very good for fitting and setting up the equipment and picture quality is excellent. I had a slight problem with one of the cables but customer service was easy to contact, they replied very quickly and the cable was replaced immediately. Great customer service. Highly recommended.
The picture quality is really good, better than expected. Unfortunately 1 camera doesn’t work properly and i am working with the seller for a replacement. I really like the fact i can have an app on my phone so i can check the cameras any time. All in all good product!
A neat, well made product with a good picture. Small and compact and silent in use and the coverage from the camera was perfect.
I did have one faulty lead (as have a few others, reading the reviews) but their customer service department soon arranged a replacement.
I had an initial problem converting the file type from H264 to AVI or any other type my video editing software would recognise but Sansco are helping me with that. The response has been brilliant. The cameras are easy to set-up (they must be I did it) the picture quality is great and I’m well pleased. The seller is great to deal with went out of their way to help. You won’t regret buying these cameras.
I bought the SANSCO S4D4C1T All-in-One Smart CCTV Camera System to watch the house while we’re away. It’s also nice to keep an eye on any pets like our dog while she’s roaming around in our fenced yard. Making sure she’s not getting into anything she’s not suppose to. Like the dead rodents and pigeons she keeps bringing to our door as presents lol. The functions of the DVR like motion detection are a big plus since I’m able to receive notifications through email when these bad boys spot something. You do need internet for this function so I bought a network switch since I already had a ethernet cable running upstairs to my laptop. Used the Etherent cable it came with to plug into my laptop and bought a longer cable to plug into the DVR since it was a bit further away. To be honest I think the network switch actually sped up my internet speed but I’ll have to go write another review after for that product haha. The Network portion was a bit confusing but there are helpfull videos on YouTube and the manual it comes with is very infromative. It didn’t take me longer than 5 mins after doing a little research. For the most part the camera system is plug and play when it comes to installing. The fixtures it came with to hang the cameras worked perfect for brick. All I did was pre-drill (3) 6mm holes, Hammered in the anchor then used a phillips screwdriver to fasten it. It sounds stupid but make sure you drill far enough and maybe a little more then you think before hammering the anchor in. Don’t make the same mistake I did and have it poking out a little haha. I wouldn’t reccommend using a drill to push the screws in either since they seem to be prone to stripping easily. The fixture package also came with an allen key for each camera so you can adjust it to your liking. The camera has 2 nuts to adjust for different directions so you can configure it anyway you want(up, down, sideways and your even able to rotate it to make it level). The wiring for this sytem was very easy. I bought a pack of (100) 5m nail cable clips to fasten the wire to the wall. These clips worked well in brick,wood and plaster. If you want to tie 2 wires togother the 6mm cable clips worked well for me but for a single wire 5mm works like a charm. If you have the sytem outside I would reccomend getting an all weather cable box for the cable ends where you plug into the camera. As seen in my photos I didn’t think that far ahead… I used some electric tape,ziploc bags and duck tape to make that sh*t as weather proof as I could until I get something better. I used 2 of the cables it came with but I needed to buy longer cables for the other 2 cameras I had. These can be purchased farely cheap. I went with the 4 pack of 30m length which SANSCO also sells. You can possibly buy less than 4 if you ask but on amazon thats the minimum. NOTE!! Always check the cables and cameras before you install them. I had one of the 30m cable that I purchased seperately not work on me after installing it through my house. The crappy part was it was installed with another wire so I would need to take down both… On the bright side SANSCO’s customer service was impeccable. I messaged them on facebook and they literally had a new cable shipped to me within 3 days. I was truly astonished and greatfull! Instead of taking down the faulty cable I cut the ends kept it in place and actually wired the camera to a new place which worked out even better. Long story short check all aspects of the sytem before permanently installing. It just so happens in my situation it kinda worked out. In the DVR picture I have a laptop fan that is sitting undeneath. I had one laying around so I thought it was a good idea to stick it under there incase the DVR gets too hot with it running constantly. Worked out great since it was USB powered and there is 2 USB ports in the back of the DVR one of them being for the mouse. I’m not really to sure on what else to say. This was my first install of CCTV and I am beyond happy with this product. It has great picture quality, easy to set-up, great customer service and a great price! I will be purchasing from this company again.
Generally good package, easy to setup and works well. Only complaint I found the camera brackets not the best quality. The small Allen screws snapped off when tightening so no further adjustment can be made. Also back plate threads too big and would not hold, ok with ptfe tape around.
Pleased with this purchase as it was easy to set up and runs extremely well, the images it produces are of a good quality.
The only fault I have is the playback feature as it takes rather a long time to locate a particular piece of footage, should it be needed, and trying to freeze the image for the sharpest picture is a little tricky at times.
However, I would still recommend this equipment and this supplier.
Night vision quality is great and day too!! Bad point that from first days something can go wrong.
Is great to have the phone app
Still not in full use – setting up for recording looks a bit complicated – but I think it will do what I want it to do
We brought the camras in Oct 2016
These are fantasic value for money
We had an issue with one of the cables in June and they replaced without charge
Fantastic follow up service
A great purchase had it up and working in no time the seller was quick to respond to my question. Bought ip65 connection boxes to fasten the camera to this makes the job a lot easier and looks professional.
Happy now 4th camera is working (replacement quickly supplied by Supplier for faulty camera). Three year review. Was relatively easy to instal, once I had decided sites for the four cameras. For the money, daytime quality is very good & night time vision is better than I had expected. Being able to view footage on mobile phone is very useful. Communication with suppler is good & they quickly respond to any queries. All in all, a good value system for the money.
The Kare 4 CH camera system WAS SO EASY TO INSTALL AND IS WORKING PERFECTLY the image quality in HD is also excellent and I have also down loaded app for mobile and tablet and again the image quality is also very good I would recommend for good value and quality.
Had the CCTV system installed today and quality is fantastic especially night mode, and the app is very good aswell. Allows you to view footage, record and take pictures. HD quality on this is superb so far – if it does change I will update my review. I would recommend as cameras are not very big and therefore not in your face for those who want to get up to no good 🙂 Installation was very smooth and everything needed came in the box.
The system is very good but the instructions are appalling and although I am quite knowledgeable I have had to email the company a number of times with queries in fairness their response has been good but would not have been necessary if good instructions were readily available
Good clear picture and good value , it was easy to install , plug and play.
A couple of things that could be better , camera could be wider angle and it does not offer sending Jpeg’s files via email if an intruder is detected.
But overall good value
Great bit of kit. If i had the money i would of gone for a 8 channel then i would of had option to get some extra cameras as im thinking of 2 more cameras and a 4TB hard drive. Im not sure how many days this can hold on a 1TB drive yet as i am testing it at 720p and 20fps.
I have this hooked up to my 2 pcs, a monitor and my phone where i can view the cameras when i am away which i tried at work today with the xmeye app, the DVR box is hooked up to sky broadband router via Ethernet cable and the box it out of sight.
I have worked out how to burn or copy footage on to a White 2.0 Toshiba 8GB thumb stick (recommended) which are about 4 on Amazon and uploaded to a pc but not worked out how to view the H.264 file yet and how to burn it onto a disk.
Update – 21/09/16
The Xmeye app on phone works great but phone now is reporting unusual battery use and drain even when the phone is no active so decided to uninstall and look for an alternative app. Added new photo from my Samsung Note 3
Update 2 – 3rd October 2016
I’ve upload new picture of my Camera DVR settings, i have managed to get at least 2 weeks worth of footage on 4 cameras on a 1TB that it came with and have about 190 GB left to go so may get a further 2 days more saved out of it so im looking at 16 days. I am still think of upgrading to a 8 channel as i want to 2 more cameras and getting a 2TB drive so that should be plenty.
***EDIT*** Turns out only one camera was set at 20 fps the others at 12fps, playback still seems good though. I’ve now set all 4 cameras to 15fps and seeing how i get on with Hard drive space. ***EDIT***
I can also access the DVR box remotely via my pc in the next room which is also hooked up to the same Sky Router and use the software that came with it to record and take snapshots and save to my PC hard drive, the films are saved in AVI format, from there i can edit and burn to a disk or usb device if needed.
If you are having trouble viewing h.264 files download a free media player called VLC and go to settings and enable h.264 files to be played, you can play them and even convert them into another format if you wish. In the VLC media player Go to Preferences -> Select: View All (Bottom) -> Select: Demuxers (Left) -> Select: H264 Video Decoder from list. You can watch this youtube video (Copy & paste in search bar) 8Qm-z2-oLsQ
Some asked if you can zoom, you can on the software i was using on my pc that comes with the device when i remote access, when the video is playing in the software, right click on one of the windows and select zoom then left click and drag a box on the location you want zoomed in, when i say zoom i mean it blows up and enlarges the picture it doesn’t zoom in on something in the distance.
Recorded footage is pretty good on play back.
I don’t have a problem with night vision, if you want something more brighter then maybe invest in a IR Iluminator as well to go with the device as it can help.
After a lengthily search, for the money I would say best in the market.Excellent picture quality with lots of features and very good auto sensor facility and comes already fitted with hard disc .Set up seems a bit complicated but leave everything at default . However connecting to the internet needs a bit of knowledge, personally I’m still having no success but I am sure YTube will help . On the minus side adjusting the camera positions is a bit frustrating,I would prefer horizontal-vertical adjustments instead and also the manual disk is very much out of date but excellent support from Direct Digi Sales and Kare site. Althoughearly days for me I would recommend this product.
Very good product . Clear images and easy to set up.
I found the customer service very effective.
When I had some problems connecting through 3G the customer service (Jessie) did a wonderful job with her prompt reply and talked me through to set it right . Overall I am very pleased with the product and more important the customer care.
Would highly recommend to anyone looking for decent CCTV camera.
Nice Easy Cost Effective CCTV System
Performs well – and the people it’s aimed at deterring don’t know how much it does / doesn’t cost.
After a couple of setting up niggles,pleased to say that the system is up and running just fine,picture quality is excellent both day and night,have even managed to set up remote viewing using the xmye app. Friends cant believe that you can get this system for the price I paid.
Contacted the sellers on a couple of occasions by email,and glad to say the replies were positive and most helpful.
In conclusion: good price,excellent system,and excellent customer service.
This is very good bit of kit. Very clear pictures , and simple to work once you understand the chinese instrutions.
Great product, easy to install, plenty of Ethernet cable for the majority of houses.
Installation took me maybe 2 hours including cable routing under floorboards, drilling and moving ladders, so simple as no extra power supply’s for the camera, just the Ethernet cable.
Superb picture quality, highly configurable, been faultless since the day I installed it.
Buy without hesitation.
It took a bit of work to set up. A faulty power transformer didn’t help but was soon replaced and all now works really well!
Great video day or night.
Great value for money!
Brilliant being able to look at live or replay footage from anywhere !
Very easy to install, reasonable pictures , although detail such as faces and numberplates can be a bit hard to decifer as not always clear. Infra Rad on one of my camera’s stopped working within 3 months of erecting although camera still worked fine in daylight. Awaiting a replacement but asked to write this review PRIOR to them sending a replacement which I thought a little strange. Will update as to if the replacement arrives or not.
I bought this system in January 2015, was easy to install system works excellent. At the end of July one of the cameras was not working as it should in night mode. I e-mailed digi care with my problem and recieved a reply within TWO minutes saying they were sending me a replacement camera. 2 days later I had a new camera delivered.. What amazing service. Thanks to Digi-care for the outstanding service, Brilliant.
Bought this to ID naughty neighbours and it did the trick. Filmed my neighbour in the act of destroying my CCTV cameras. Info passed to the police and now my peace and quiet has returned. Excellent picture quality, easy to install and set up, play back can be fast forwarded to incident point and the file saved to a flash drive to be burned on to a DVD.
A complete kit, plenty of cable and easy enough to install and set uo.
Camera quality not the best, ok but I wouldn’t like to rely on an image if I had to in a court of law…
Really happy with these day an night cameras and hard drive. Night camera works very well in almost zero light, remember to turn up monitor brightness in really dark areas. Very clear day image and very easy to set up. I would recommend for others looking for a good and cheap package. 3 months on no problems at all.
Was very well packed and the extra cables we needed all arrived when expected. Easy to install and works perfectly. One of the units has a ninety metre cable run to it however it is as crisp and clear in stunning colour as the other three. At night the in built inferred comes on giving plenty of light. We have one overlooking our rear field day or night we can see clearly.
Easy to set up good can pic out face detail from about 10 yards night vision black and white IR but very good picture easy to vue on your mobile. I would not go for anything less than these 900 cameras if you want to see details they are good, but they are not hd camcorders.
Well worth the money
does what they say
whsh I had got the six channal one with the same 900 cameras as there always some angle you can’t cover.
sellers after sale responds well
Go on buy one
Good value for money, easy to set up and a good quality picture from the cameras. I use it with a refurbished Dell 17 inch monitor, which gives a good clear picture. Recommended
I purchased this system in 2014 and it has been brilliant, clear pictures night or day, its easy to install just basic diy skills required, and is pretty much plug and play ,set up was so easy. in the years I have owned and used this system I have only had one fault one camera would only show the image as being all pink but the picture quality was still good, even after all these years the company have agreed to supply a replacement camera at no charge. that I think in this day and age is remarkable and they will certainly get my recommendation to all my friends and family.
Excellent value. Simply plug and play. The manual is as good as useless. I had problem getting the image on my Nexus phone. The App downloaded from the QR code in the manual does not work. A bit of research on the net found an app that works perfectly. (Vmeyecloud). The videos are not exactly HD, but for the money, it is usable and very good value. All in all, it’s a very good choice.
Bought it during Christmas.Recently completed the installation. Very easy to install and set up. In absolute darkness the camera’s record in black and white. Easy to set up remote viewing on mobile phone/tablet. So far haven’t faced any problems. Will recommend. Cheers !
Fantastic piece of equipment, works very well and camera quality is great for the price you pay.. Ideal home or garage setup. Little bit difficult to configure the Internet settings from a DIY point of view but I got there in the end. Just be aware that you will need an Internet router that has a DDNS function to use the mobile app and the Virgin media superhub does not support this so it was a hindrance when I had to buy a second router but I cannot fault the system for this, more so just the so called super hub.
Sannce after care is best contacted through email and usually return queries within 24hrs which i was happy with.
System arrived well packed,very easy to instal and set to work.Minor problems were that one of the 4 cables was much shorter than the other 3 plus 2 of the cables were wound with the camera end in the centre of the reel and the other 2 had the camera ends at the outside of the reel, luckily we checked all the cables before threading the system through the attic spaces.Overall Very pleased with both the colour and the black and white outputs. Have not yet had a chance to fully explore the recorder manual
