It looks like you have eight camera inputs on BNC connectors there - you'd need to use a suitable video cable rather than CAT5 I think.

Looking at this unit on Amazon, the spec says you can view remotely from your phone.
 
You can use any camera with a composite video output, the Floureon might not be the very best but for the price of a couple of cameras and a bit of cable you'll have functional CCTV which is very usable.

Try the old cameras but even cheap new ones are likely to be much better. Definition is better and the built-in IR LEDs are loads brighter than they used to be.
