A customer recently contacted CCTV Camera Pros with the following questions related to displaying multiple security camera feeds on one monitor without using a recorder. Below is the chat transcript:
Customer Support:
Hi Frank. How can I help you?
Frank:
We are looking for a video monitor that takes multiple input feeds from a controller so we can see three cameras on the screen at one time. Do you have such monitors or a device that can do this?
Customer Support:
Do your cameras have BNC connections?
Frank:
We are using an r-THREE interface box which has three inputs BNC.
Customer Support:
Please confirm, do you have 3 BNC outputs that you are looking to input to a monitor?
Frank:
yes
Customer Support:
OK, you can use one of these 4 channel video processors / multiplexors: http://www.cctvcamerapros.com/Quad-Video-Processor-p/vm-99015.htm
and connect it to a monitor that has a BNC or RCA monitor such as this one: http://www.cctvcamerapros.com/Composite-Surveillance-Monitor-p/mon-lcd-22w.htm

I see a 22inch widescreen can that do the trick?
Customer Support:
Yes, this composite LCD monitor will work just fine: http://www.cctvcamerapros.com/Composite-Surveillance-Monitor-p/mon-lcd-22w.htm
Frank:
No special other equipment.
Customer Support:
you would just need the cables also.
Frank:
SO I am clear. Does this monitor have multiple BNC inputs?
Customer Support:
No, you connect the 3 BNC connections to the Quad processor, then connect the quad processor to the monitor.
Frank:
so the quad processor will display the multiple video? Do you have quad processors?
Customer Support:
Yes, you can see the quad processor here: http://www.cctvcamerapros.com/Quad-Video-Processor-p/vm-99015.htm
Frank:
Thanks for your help. I will order online.
