IP Cameras Vs CCTV Cameras – Part Two
In our previous article entitled "IP Cameras vs. CCTV Cameras – Part One", we discuss the advantages of Remote Viewing, Recording, Remote Locations, Wireless Functionality and Motion Detection with Video Analytics. This second article discuss other advantages that IP cameras have over traditional CCTV cameras.
Compatibility
Most IP camera recording software supports a wide range of IP camera models and manufacturers. This allows you to mix and match IP cameras in yourInstallation, you create a custom surveillance solution that fits perfectly for you.
Let's say you wanted to setup three IP surveillance cameras, a just a parking lot to watch before lobby and another monitoring the rear entrance of the building. You could put three different IP camera models – the manufacturer – in this installation. You could take a IQeye 755 5.0 Megapixel IP camera will monitor the parking lot of vehicles leading to a high quality image to enlargePlates. You could put a wireless AXIS 207W with audio in the entrance to minimize cabling requirements and provide audio surveillance. Finally, you can use a Sony SNC-RZ25N PTZ IP Camera with an outdoor enclosure to monitor the rear entrance and need the ability to / Tilt / pan and zoom the camera in order to have fields.
All three IP cameras can be easily connected to the local network and monitor configured in the IP camera recording software and to each individual entryCamera.
BNC / Analog Output
Some IP cameras with a BNC / Analog output allows you to get the camera to the existing CCTV system connected. That way you could connect the IP camera to your DVR recording station and still have connected to a network connection for remote viewing and recording on a PC or a remote location. Be sure to check the IP camera has the ability to video, send both the BNC / Analog output and simultaneously over the network.
PoE Power over –Ethernet
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is the ability to change your IP camera and network activity provides an RJ45 network cable. This provides for easier installation and lower installation costs of cable, as this will be the need for a power cable connected to the camera eliminated. To take advantage of this technology, make sure your IP camera PoE compliant. A PoE network router / hub or Midspan will be needed to power the camera via the RJ45 network cable can. PoE kits are alsoavailable to supply the power via the network cable, if you not a Midspan or router / hub have. One PoE kit will be needed for each camera and the output must be the right power supply (5V, 9V, 12V, etc.).
I / O for card readers, alarms, etc.
IP cameras can be easily into existing security including card readers, alarms, glass breakers, access control, etc. added. The IP camera can be connected to an input from these devices, then tell the camera that can receive video recordings, where acertain event is triggered. The outputs can also be set up where if the IP camera detects motion, it is a signal to create the memory of an audio siren or warning.
Conclusion
We hope that Part I and Part II of "IP Cameras vs. CCTV's cameras" She trained in the benefits of IP over CCTV. The best thing is to know what opportunities are there for you before making a purchase, so you effectively control your home or business.
