At Discount Security Store we have the products you need in
relation to home and/or business surveillance and security. What follows is a
basic understanding of what CCTV is and how it functions for surveillance and
security.
Utilizing the use of video cameras, Closed-Circuit
Television (CCTV) transmits a signal to a desired place, on a set of monitors.
It differs from broadcast television in that the signal is not
openly-transmitted, though it may employ point-to-point (P2P),
point-to-multipoint, or mesh wireless-connect services. Though almost all video
cameras fit in the above description and definition, the term today (CCTV) is
most often used for surveillance in areas which may need to be monitored such
as banks, casinos, airports, the military, and convenience shops.
The use of CCTV was seen as a cheaper way to deter crime
compared to increasing the size of police departments or hiring home or
business security services. Some businesses as well, especially those that were
prone to theft, began to use video surveillance. Police departments across the
country installed an increasing number of cameras in various public spaces
including housing projects, schools and public parks departments. CCTV later
became common in banks and stores to minimize theft, by recording evidence of
criminal activity.
Surveillance cameras are the cornerstone of any home and
professional security system. Suppliers offer a wide range of CCTV security
cameras; from multi-camera to all-weather options, there is a complete solution
available for you to monitor your home or office. With a CCTV setup, one can
protect his or her property from damage from strangers, intruders and theft.
CCTV security camera systems allow you to control your home surveillance from
one central location via a central DVR or access control display. Use of
security cameras is considered as the best way of deterring criminals from
causing harm to your home or your property (even when you are thousands of
miles away from your home), keeping away intruders and it can also check the
activities of your kids, maids, or guests.
