Why you should consider buying and installing your First Video Surveillance System
Have you ever thought of purchasing your own video surveillance system? If so, then you make proper plans for it as there are numerous kinds of cameras to choose from both for indoors and outdoors.
Further, the cameras have become quite cheap with prices going downwards due to both competition as well as breakthrough technologies. It is generally seen that there are surveillance cameras for any purpose although you may have to look for cost factor too.
To make things easier, if you wish to purchase a good video surveillance system then you may need to go for IP technology, which is proven to be better than the Analog HD types. With prices already low you may purchase one of these if your intention is to monitor movements of people in your home or a few square feet of office space. Just don’t go for cheaper system as this is a life time investment for many. The main reason for purchasing IP technology video surveillance camera is because it is standalone equipment and has its own web server to process all the video it streams. Again, an IP with ONVIF compatible would be better as it works under the specification of global open industry standards.
Investing for the future
Your video surveillance camera would be your best investment for the future. Remember, that each requirement vary and so would the camera too. In fact, you may need the same for specific purposes. For instance, IP system is computers related and hence is generally more flexible. These again come under two different types of classifications.
The first one POE camera has a POE switch provided on it and therefore there is no need for additional power supply wiring. Non-POE would mean which is the other one would mean that you need to have a separate 12V direct current. If you need a camera for your business then choose the former type.
Long-term solution to your problems
It may be anything from monitoring your children to give extra protection for the family or checking on your inventories. Most urban and non-urban dwellers and businessmen have developed a fascination for video surveillance camera. By installing such a system at your home or office you ward of any possible future dangers. You may even make genuine contribution to work and lessen idle time as employees would know that a spy is up there checking on them.
There is no specific place for placing your secret camera. You may choose to place them on your plant pots or on shelves, between books or even among stuffed toys. However, these are smaller compatible devices, but for more accurate video surveillance you may need to choose a good camera that has IP technology. This may be place on top of the ventilator or above the door.
For outdoor purpose and if the area of the indoors that you wish to monitor is large enough then you may choose PTZ or Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera with 360 degree radius. They are very good although slightly expensive.
