CCTV monitoring of homes and businesses has become quite popular, however, the use of CCTV HD IP cameras has quickly taken over from typical analog CCTV systems. This is due to an improvement in CCTV technology which can help you to better monitor your home and business no matter where you are. So, with that said, we will dive into 4 main reasons why you should have CCTV HD IP cameras installed in your home.
First of all, CCTV HD IP camera systems contain onboard processors which allow them to do a lot more than typical analog CCTV systems. They are more than devices for recording video but can also respond to triggers and events in the environment. For example, they can respond to motion and follow whatever is moving. When there is low light due to weather conditions or night, the cameras can adjust their settings automatically for maximum visibility. These cameras have a much wider range of features that give you better control over your CCTV system so that it is more effective at its job.
Next, if you have a typical CCTV system that has a set number of cameras, storage space, etc, it is quite difficult and expensive to expand your CCTV system. You will likely only be able to expand from 4 cameras to 8, 16, or 32. If you need more cameras then you'll have to buy another DVR. However, with a CCTV HD IP camera system, it is quite easy and affordable to expand your setup. It is very affordable to buy additional hard drives for more space since the cost of hard drives has drastically reduced in the last few years and will likely continue to reduce.
Thirdly, the great thing about CCTV HD IP cameras is that they offer high-definition video that gives you the ability to zoom in on recorded video or even live video. This means that you will be able to easily see the details of a person's faces, read license plates, etc. This will ensure that in the event that there is a robbery or some other issue, you will be able to easily investigate using the recording to bring the perpetrators to justice. The entire point of a CCTV system is to provide security and allow you and the authorities to easily identify criminals and vandals. These systems will give you all the details that you need to ensure that you and your family are well-protected.
Lastly, these cameras allow you to view the live and recorded video of your property via your smart devices, phone or computer anywhere in the world, once you have access to the internet. This is particularly helpful if you want to go on vacation or simply spend a lot of time traveling. When you have a CCTV HD IP system in your home, you can easily monitor it, no matter where you're located.
To wrap things up, these are just 4 reasons why you should consider installing a CCTV HD IP system in your home. It will act as a deterrent against crime and help protect you, your family, and your property.
