Wired Security Camera Installation in East Tennessee

Get a wired camera system you can check from your phone or a TV. Trent Electrical installs wired security cameras and runs the Cat6 cabling to connect them.

A wired system, planned around your home

Plan the camera views

We start with the areas you want to see and review mounting positions during a walkthrough. Placement and cable access are considered together before the installation scope is confirmed.

Run Cat6 for wired PoE

I run Cat6 cabling to connect wired cameras to a compatible system. Power over Ethernet carries power and video over the same cable when the camera and connected PoE equipment are compatible.

Choose compatible viewing options

We discuss viewing from a phone, computer or compatible TV. Any camera hardware, network connections and setup included in the job are confirmed during the walkthrough. Features depend on the system—not just the camera.

Wired camera questions

What does PoE mean?

PoE means Power over Ethernet. A compatible wired camera receives power and carries video through its Ethernet cable, connected to compatible PoE equipment. I review the camera system and cabling requirements as part of planning the installation.

Can I view the cameras on my phone, computer or TV?

Those options depend on the camera system, network connection and viewing equipment. Phone or computer access needs compatible software and the right setup; TV viewing needs a compatible TV input or supported viewing method. We confirm the options during the walkthrough rather than assume every camera supports every feature.

How do we plan camera placement?

During a walkthrough, we discuss the areas you want to see, mounting locations and possible Cat6 cable routes. I review access, the compatible system and any hardware or setup you want included before confirming the scope. Existing equipment also needs review before it is included.
