Every Type of CCTV Camera Explained!

23/6/2020 Uncategorised

One of the bonuses of having live CCTV cameras is that it allows the user total control and flexibility as to when and where they monitor their surveillance cameras. Remote management offers live monitoring and playback so if an incident or event occurs it enables you to take immediate action.

Wired CCTV Systems

Wired CCTV systems are suitable for a permanent set-up, usually for one location or building that requires constant monitoring. Most fully integrated wired CCTV systems comprise of internal and external cameras with infrared capabilities for night vision, a recorder with 30 days storage and a monitor and an internet connection via land line or a 4G connection.

Wireless CCTV Systems

Wireless CCTV systems enable you have cameras connected to separate buildings or remote buildings. These can also work over distances of up to 7 kilometres with line of sight.

This can avoid the inconvenience and cost of digging trenches, avoid catenary wires in places that could be knocked by high sided vehicles, or situations where a road needs to be crossed

Night-Vision Cameras

Night-Vision Cameras have automatically retractable infrared cut filters for night-vision, making them suitable for low light areas and not just for use at night time. The night vision image will be in black and white for improved contrast and image detailing but these cameras switch back to colour in higher levels of light.

HD CCTV (4K)

HD CCTV (4K) is configured so that the video feed is sent directly from the cameras to the recorder without having to compress and compromise the image quality. HD cameras deliver video based on a format that the HD TV broadcasting stations use which means HD CCTV is able to deliver higher resolution images. 4K HDCVI ultra-high-resolution cameras are ideal for capturing video in scenes that require fine details. With the ability to digitally zoom, details are maintained at further distances.

HD CCTV is also viewable via phone or tablet and gives instant access to view remotely. Couple this with a high quality, simple digital recorder and monitor in your home, office or any occupied area and you have a very economic and powerful security solution.

I-HT Ltd offer a full range of internal and external live CCTV cameras that can be networked via a local area network or via an internet connection, allowing them to be viewed and monitored remotely on either a PC, iPad, iPhone, or any suitable smart phone or tablet from anywhere in the world!

This company is the only company I would use for all my home security and air con requirements. I have had three air con units fitted. The installation team go to great lengths to minimise disruption and to clean up after themselves. They do not leave until the customer is happy with the installation and that the customer knows how it works. Booking a service is easy and the staff are Polite and knowledgeable. Customer service is a priority for this company. Well done and thank you.

Jayne Moore

Excellent company to work with. We have recently upgraded our CCTV with I-HTT as we were happy with the service we received with our original equipment they provided. If ever we have a problem which is usually operator error rather than the equipment we have made a call and the response and help is arranged very quickly, either over the phone or a technician comes to our premises. As a company we have no negatives. It's always a relief when a company offers a service and they actually meet there promises. I would definitely recommend.

We stumbled across I-HT CCTV a few years ago now and, quite simply, have never looked back! Professional advice and support ensuring you get the best product possible! I have never known a Company who are so committed to being customer-focused and ensuring that their customers are happy. Whether it be the Installation Team or Admin Team, their polite, professional service is second to none. As our Company has grown, I-HT has become and integral part of our safety & security arsenal - I really have no idea how we managed before them. Thank you Lee & Team for all you do in keeping our wheels rolling!
