Which cable should I use with this product?

Sergio,Any Ethernet cable will do. You don't have to use the cables supplied with the DVR. Category 5 ethernet cables will do, but I'd recommend Category 6 ethernet for better shielding and future camera improvements. We're really lucky we don't have to run both power and signal cables to the cameras. This unit uses something called POE or Power Over Ethernet to provide the power the camera needs.

When I installed my system, I needed longer lengths of cable. I ordered and installed 100' cables with connectors on the ends from a different vendor. Works fine.

Sergio.....I wish I could be of assistance to you. But this was a gift for a "techie" friend and have no idea re: the cables. My apologies and I hope you find the correct answer.

Any Cat5 e cable can be used instead of the included 50ft cables. . I have made cables myself for this product in the past with no problem.

From my experience from my application of this cable, I wouldn't trust it. Try looking for a converter box. It will cost more, but I'm more then positive it will work for what you need.

It is called: USB type A to USB type B cable. I would suggest a six foot cable.

squashpup - THANK-YOU so very much for your reply. I have been hesitant to purchase this item, but now that I know that it works for you, I will proceed. And thanks for the eBay tip, I would not have known what to call that type of adapter cable.Happy New Year,PWB, Esq.

Paste either of the following links into your web browser, either will work: http://www.amazon.com/Mediabridge-2-0-Male-Cable-Feet/dp/B001MSU1HG/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1388266733&sr=1-2&keywords=usb+cable or http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Hi-Speed--Male-B-Male-Meters/dp/B001TH7GUA/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1388266733&sr=1-3&keywords=usb+cable One end is the standard rectangulare USB connector, and the other should be the square connector with 2 rounded corners. Both are available through Amazon.com.

Any hdmi cable should do. My experience with these cables was not good though as both were defective.

Yep! I use it with mine. You just have to get the right cable for it. I can't remember which one it is though...

The cable is not proprietary so you can use any compatible cable you want. The provide cable is convenient as it fits within the space for the cable perfectly.

Any inexpensive HDMI cable will work with this set- don't buy into the hype if someone tries to sell you a pricey cable. CNET has a great article that explains HDMI without getting too technical or confusing here: http://reviews.cnet.com/2719-11276_7-226-1.html

Michael is right about the cables that you need. I would recommand gold plate RCA cables so you can get a better picture to your computer.

This cable will work but you also need a cd with the appropriate programming information for your computer. If you have that, you should be good to go.

I would try calling support at 800-800-1020 and ask someone specifically about this cable. Sorry!

That is a SATA hard drive, so any SATA cable will work.I am not sure this is a SATA 6Gbps cable, so the link speed may be slower. However, even SATA 3Gbps is faster than you will see with that drive.

Yes, you must use premium cable, I dislike the original cable so I acquire a bettet one

any cable with a usb connection will work great, it is nice to have the option to have 4 connection at one time
