Basic CCTV
A basic system provides protection for the exterior and interior of your home. Systems can range in size and complexity from a single camera up to a network of eight cameras. Each camera is connected to a central management system which typically has enough storage for approximately two weeks of footage. This should be enough to cover a typical two-week family vacation.
Basic systems are hard-wired which increases reliability and simplifies maintenance. However, the upfront installation costs of hard-wired systems are typically more expensive than wireless systems. The installation process is also much more disruptive, involving the drilling of holes and the channelling of wires.
Wireless CCTV
Wireless systems offer many advantages over basic hard-wired systems. There is greater flexibility in the positioning of the cameras. The cameras don’t have to be hard wired which reduces installation costs. And there are no unsightly wires cluttering up your home. Wireless systems can also be controlled from your smartphone or tablet giving you access to your system from almost anywhere.
A typical wireless system contains four to eight cameras which are connected to a central storage and management console. As with a wired system, this contains enough storage for up to two weeks of footage, but more storage can be added if necessary. The camera quality varies but most systems come with 1080p HD cameras which are suitable for both interior and exterior use.
