A video surveillance system is a comprehensive setup designed to monitor, record, and analyze activities within a specific area for security and safety purposes. Key components of a video surveillance system include video cameras, recording devices, software, networking equipment, and cabling. Properly designing a video surveillance system can be complicated, but we’re here to help. Our experienced team can guide you to the right solution for your business.

Types of Video Surveillance Systems: There are several types of video surveillance systems, each designed to meet different security needs, environments, and budgets. Here are some of the most common types along with the pros and cons:

1. Analog Surveillance Systems: traditional CCTV systems use analog cameras and coaxial cables to transmit video events to a Digital Video Recorder (DVR).

2. Digital Surveillance Systems: modern systems use digital cameras that transmit video data over an IP network to a Network Video Recorder (NVR) or the cloud.

3. Wireless Surveillance Systems: modern systems use wireless networks to transmit video.

There are many other factors to consider when designing your video surveillance system, including recording device storage, adding professional monitoring services, and more.
