Use Only The Best Cameras For Your Fire Department

• HDTVI Cameras – HDTVI combines the transmission of high-resolution optical images, analog images, and IP megapixel technologies. This type of camera will provide extra transmission distance with less storage capacity. Those cameras are easy to set up and require no specialized knowledge. HDTVI Cameras do not have problems like bandwidth instability or latency.
• HDCVI Cameras – HDCVI cameras are considered to be the best high definition cameras. The most important reason why those cameras should be part of your security system in retail facilities is the fact that they work with existing coax cables. This means you don’t have to spend more money when you upgrade your security system. Those cameras are quite cheap, and they come in a variety of forms.
• IP Security Cameras – Also known as Internet Protocol Cameras are digital video cameras that can send or receive data as long as you have an internet connection. This improved version of CCTV cameras will give you remote management. What this means is that you can now send or receive videos from anywhere with better quality, zoom, etc. You can now get notifications whenever a suspicious activity is detected.
• Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) – This type of surveillance camera is the most used camera in the retail industry. It’s called a closed circuit because everything is linked to a coax cable. Those types of security cameras require proper monitoring and designed placement to cover all blind spots. CCTV Cameras are best used to maintain perimeter security and track human activities.
• Analog Cameras – This type of camera system digitizes the captured images for processing, providing increased video quality and frame rate. These cameras perform well in different lighting conditions and manage human activities well. One of the top benefits of using analog cameras is that the bandwidth is virtually unlimited. It cannot interfere with any external video surveillance problems. Additionally, once these cameras are installed, they require little maintenance. Analog cameras are known to provide security with a long track record for reliability.
•  Day/Night Cameras – Day and night cameras are cameras built to capture images in complete darkness or areas where lighting is low. Those cameras are the best when it comes to monitoring your retail store when he’s closed, and the lights are shut. Day and Night Cameras are perfect for parking lots and warehouses as well since those areas are usually low-lit.
