External audio digitized by the IP cam?

For the many external cams without audio, if I were to attach an external mic, does that audio get included over the cat-5, POE, cabling to the NVR or SS?

Thanks,

Robert

    Hi Robert,

    Yes. All IP cameras with audio input ports will digitise and send this audio to the NVR along with the video stream.

    I always wondered why most NVRs have only a single audio-input.... I guess that is never used since the camera tales the MIC input.
