IP security products.


Why are IP cameras the way forward?

Well basically its simple. IP cameras are easier to install, They always have been but until now the cost of these cameras has been somewhat prohibitive.

Although for a long time manufacturers have used the ease of install as a good reason to charge more for their product this excuse is now wearing a little thin. So many IP cameras are now being produced that the cost has been driven down in a ferocious manner. It is common knowledge inside the industry that an IP camera is as cheap to produce now as an analogue camera.

When will more IP cameras be sold than analogue?

Our prediction is about 18 months from now will see the first measurable swing towards IP cameras as the dominant selling security product in the CCTV market place.

What does this mean to the end user.

Well more competition means better IP cameras with more features. HD over the network, something many thought would be impossible not long ago, it could soon become the norm.

Hybrid CCTV

Legacy equipment.

Where legacy CCTV equipment cannot be removed due to cost implications manufacturers are now coming up with some ingenious solutions in order to accommodate both the past the present and the future.

These are called hybrid network surveillance servers and combine analogue and IP cameras into a single box solution.

This is of course a huge market place and one many facility managers and security managers are looking into with much enthusiasm.

So this is where the hybrid recorder fits in and can cleverly be incorporated into the IT budget or security budget depending on which is the healthier at the time.

So how does it work?

Existing coaxial camera’s are simply reconnected in the usual way to the new recorder, nothing clever here, but by using existing networks within or outside the facility new IP cameras can also be hung off the same unit. This opens up possibilities of connecting IP cameras from remote sites or from areas previously inaccessible or financially un-viable to a normal coaxial cable run. Areas served by wireless IP networks are also now easily connected where surveillance would have been considered impossible before.

Web browsers.

Remote access via web browsers gives huge flexibility to view and control systems from anywhere and means dedicated on site staff may not be required, initiating big cost savings.

These units are becoming very flexible to meet a rapidly changing market place. They need to record, transmit, trip outputs and need to be extremely reliable. If you want to ensure you buy a good unit make sure it is not the cheapest and make sure it offers a five year warranty.
