Happy Sunday! Welcome back to SUNDAYS & BUSINESS, This week features Yehuda Fleisher president of Smart Electric Homes with 3 easy to implement tips on Security Camera Systems.
Cameras
Determining what you want to monitor is crucial. It forms the foundation for your entire CCTV system. It helps you determine the number of cameras needed, their placement, and the desired viewing angles. Consider features like night vision, color at night, motion detection, auto tracking, etc. Always prioritize deciding what areas you want to cover when setting up a CCTV system.
Quality & Resolution
The most common IP cameras on the market use either 4MP or 8MP/4K technologies which offer the best resolution for money ratio. Many cameras today offer full color night vision, and infrared features anywhere from 30 ft to even over 650 ft.
Storage
Storage is a critical aspect that is often overlooked until the unfortunate realization dawns upon us that the invaluable footage we needed has vanished forever. It is imperative to proactively address this concern by carefully estimating the necessary storage capacity through the utilization of reliable tools and methodologies. By taking this proactive approach, you can ensure the preservation and accessibility of crucial video recordings.
