Choosing a CCTV Camera System Delhi at Home is Easy - If You Know What You Need

Many people would buy a ready-made kit with Security System Dealer in Bangalore wifi-enabled cameras and put up the cameras where they seem to fit in. This is fine for a small home, three to four cameras looking at the entrance and the back door. But what if your cameras don't cover all of your area, or you need to put cameras in a location where you have no wifi coverage, or you cannot pull a network cable easily?

Before deciding on what system to buy and how to install it, you will first need to consider how you will use it.

You have to look at what you need, rather than what you want.

You should choose a Home Automation System in Delhi that will suite the way you will use it; watching the kids from your office, recording what is going on when you are away and play back later, see when the postman comes. The uses of a home CCTV System are many.

You should also consider equipment or systems you already have like an internal network with wifi.

If you starting from scratch and not replacing an outdated system, you would most likely consider an IP system. If you already have a wifi system in your house it would be very tempting to use that for your wifi enabled cameras. But that is not all that smart. You don't want to mix your new CCTV Camera in Delhi Ncr with your smart-phones or laptops on the same wifi network. One or two cameras will most likely make no difference, but if you have many cameras streaming at the same time, they will quite quickly eat up your bandwidth.

Whether you have a wired or wireless CCTV Camera in Delhi, the cameras should be - as far as possible - on a separate network. This can be easily achieved by using a separate switch and/or Access Point for your cameras and connect to your existing router for internet access.

Cameras: What type of cameras should you choose? There are dome cameras and here are bullet cameras, there are indoor cameras and there are outdoor cameras. Not to mention that you can have cameras with or without IR light. You have High Definition and you have Standard Definition cameras to choose from.

You should choose a camera based on its location and what it is supposed to see.

You should use outdoor cameras outdoors (logical, really). Outdoor cameras work indoors as well, but indoor rated cameras will not survive very long outdoors.

Dome vs. bullet is really a matter of aesthetics. A dome camera may be less intrusive. A dome camera can be installed in the ceiling or on a wall, a bullet camera can be installed anywhere.

Do you need IR light? The simple answer is yes - it is nice to have. However the camera's performance when using IR light is often exaggerated by the manufacturer.

You choose cameras with higher resolution if you are looking at a larger view like a fence line, and you use a camera with lower resolution if you are looking at an only door-way. If the resolution is too low, you will lose detail in the picture. If the resolution is higher than needed, you will take up more bandwidth and storage - if you are recording.

Recording: Do you need to record your Security System Dealer in Mumbai. If you want to be able to view later, you will need a recording device - typically an NVR, but it can also be on a PC.

If you want to review your recordings to see what happened when you were on vacation, you must make sure that the recording retention time is sufficient. Retention time can be extended by recording on motion, and to reduce the recording frame rate. Do always record at maximum resolution, though.

Choose your CCTV System wisely. With the right choice you will use it. If you choose wrongly, you will be frustrated with it and not make he best out of it.
