14-09-2016
Analog Cameras and IP Cameras are quite different from each other. But the first and foremost difference that sets them apart is the way, how they deliver their video signal. Where Analog signals convert the video signal into a format that can be received by a television or monitor, on the other hand, an IP camera captures analog video and digitizes it using a specialized encoder internally. Hence, the IP camera can also act as a network device, which allows the user to access the security feed not only through an existing network but also remotely through any device such as phone, laptop, PC etc. Bo

29-08-2016
A Video Motion Sensor (or Detector) performs the main function of relieving CCTV operators from monitoring one or many screens of information that may not change for long periods. The idea behind a motion sensor system is that the processor is continuously monitoring all the cameras in the system. Whenever there is a movement in any camera, the motion sensor picks it up and the alarmed camera is immediately switched to the blank monitor while alerting the operator. Since a motion sensor stays one step ahead of the burglars,it is often considered the linchpin of your security system. How does a Motion Sensor Work? Motio

IP OVER COAX
22-08-2016
IP based surveillance is gaining more acceptance day by day as it offers expandability and the higher resolution recording capability. But the cost of the IP cameras and the recording NVR server is still high, to reduce this cost a combination of IP Cameras and Coax cabling is used. While upgrading from a traditional CCTV system, the part of your old system that you can re-use is the coax cable. This requires the use of a device to transmit TCP-IP over what is essentially a two conductor wire (coax) instead of Ethernet cable which has 8 conductors. This not only saves the cost of the cable but also the labour cost inv
