CCTV System Builder ADVANCED
Drag real components onto the rack, then wire every connector - BNC coax, Cat6/RJ45, DC power, HDMI, SATA. The system validates each link: green = correct, red = wrong / missing.

How real CCTV wiring works (read me)
- Analog / HD-TVI cameras send video over coax with BNC connectors into a DVR, and need a separate 12V DC power lead.
- IP cameras use one Cat6 / RJ45 cable for both data and power (PoE) into a PoE switch or directly into an NVR with PoE ports.
- Every recorder needs a hard drive (SATA), power, and an HDMI link to a monitor.
- Mismatched connectors (e.g. BNC into an RJ45 port) are physically impossible - the lab flags them red.
