Technology has its perks, with security possibly being one of the biggest. Whether you are interested in adding additional security to your home or to your business, you have multiple options that you can entertain. The two types of systems that you will likely be choosing between are the CCTV cameras (closed circuit television) and the network cameras (IP security).
The network system allows you to watch the feed in real time from anywhere in the world. You can be in the next room or another country and, as long as you have access to Internet, you can flip open your mobile device and check in on your home or business. You can encrypt the information so you alone can access it or add on nothers that you want to assist in monitoring a situation. Since it is digital, the feed can also be watched many times without the fear of degradation in quality. Network cameras are a little higher in price due to the technology involved.
CCTV is a system that utilizes a DVD and, on the very positive side, is easy to use. If you can work the DVD you will likely find it to be an uncomplicated process. With this system you will be able to record an environment, then, if needed, can review it later for clarification of an event. The information gathered is also easy to store. Thanks to advancements in technology, many of these systems can now be accessed and controlled via an Internet network. As the simpler of the two systems, there is a lower cost associated with CCTV.
Both the CCTV and the network cameras have positive aspects as well as drawbacks. If you are mostly on the premises, you may not need to access the feed at all times. If you aren’t able to be there in person as much, you may want to have immediate access at any point, day or night. Take time for plenty of research to figure out which system is best suited for your home or business needs.
