Haydon HAY-RJ45BL2MCAT5 Blue CAT5e RJ45 Ethernet Patch Lead 2m (Pack of 5)
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution and frame rate settings. Finally you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity.

| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb we recommend a minimum of 2 Terabytes per 4 x 2-4MP HD cameras, as this should give you 2 weeks to a month with a few adjustments on motion detected recording. You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast moving.

Haydon HAY-RJ45BL2MCAT5 Blue CAT5e RJ45 Ethernet Patch Lead 2m (Pack of 5)
The Haydon HAY-RJ45BL2MCAT5 is a high-quality CAT5e RJ45 Ethernet patch lead designed to provide dependable network connectivity for professional CCTV, IT and structured cabling applications. Supplied in a convenient pack of five, each 2-metre grey patch lead is suitable for connecting networking equipment where additional cable length is required without compromising installation quality or performance.
Manufactured using 26 AWG stranded conductors, the cable offers excellent flexibility while maintaining consistent signal transmission for everyday Ethernet networking. Each lead is terminated with industry-standard 8P8C RJ45 modular connectors, ensuring compatibility with network switches, routers, patch panels, IP cameras, NVRs, computers, printers, VoIP phones, access control systems and other Ethernet-enabled devices. The cable follows the recognised EIA/TIA-568B wiring configuration, ensuring seamless integration into existing network infrastructures.
To maximise long-term reliability, the RJ45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts, reducing contact resistance and helping to maintain stable, high-quality data transmission. Each connector is protected by a moulded snagless boot, preventing damage to the retaining clip during installation whilst providing effective strain relief for improved cable durability.
