Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Value of a CCTV Systems for my Premises?
Your new CCTV system will deter criminals from entering your premises to avoid being recorded trespassing or committing criminal acts. If they do access the property, you’ll have evidence of their activity and this can be used by police to prosecute them. Apart from improving security, CCTV systems will help you monitor your pets’ behaviour when you’re not at home or give you a view of children or the elderly when you can’t be in the room with them 24/7.
Is a CCTV System a Good Business Investment?
In addition to being a criminal deterrent, a CCTV installation can help you improve product control, provide Work Cover evidence and save money on security patrol costs.
Digital CCTV vs Analog CCTV—What are the Differences?
Digital IP CCTV systems contain top of the range components that provide exceptional quality images. Other benefits include PoE (Power Over Ethernet) compatibility, the need for only one CAT6 data cable for NVR connection and you get remote access via smartphone/tablet.
In contrast, an analog system gives lower quality images without any remote access. Setup is more complicated as each camera requires a separate power source.
Will I Get a Wireless or Wired CCTV Setup?
We believe in wired CCTV systems because we want to give our clients maximum reliability. This is less likely with wireless systems as cameras can easily disconnect from the Wi-Fi network. A wireless system is also more difficult to maintain as you either need to replace batteries continuously or ensure there’s a working power outlet for each camera.
Will my CCTV System be Safe from Weather Conditions and Vandals?
We’re proud of high quality cameras with the following specs that make them appropriate for outdoor installation:
IP67 weather proof ratings
IK10 vandal proof ratings
-30°C – +60°C environmental operating conditions
How Much Data can my CCTV System Store?
You don’t want valuable footage to be overwritten so we’ll help you pick the right package for your needs. You can have storage of 1TB up to 8TB or much more simply by adding more hard drives. An ideal guideline is to store 1 month’s footage at a time. When the hard drives are full the system will overwrite 10 minutes of footage at a time.
How Does Remote Viewing Work?
We use a free, user friendly app compatible with both iOS and Android devices. You can use your computer or mobile device to view the feed as long as you have an internet connection.
Please Explain MP?
MP refers to megapixels and this relates to image quality. You want a high number of megapixels to ensure you have good images that you can zoom in on without losing picture quality. Use this as a reference:
2MP = 1080P HD
4MP = 2 x 1080P HD resolution
8MP = 4K UHD
What Camera Types Can You Supply?
We supply cameras from our trusted supplier Dahua. The brand’s range includes wide angle fixed and zoom lenses in the following categories:
Dome cameras
Pignose units
Panoramic cameras
Motorised PTZ cameras
By positioning a variety of cameras in a space, all activities in that zone can be captured effectively.
What Happens When my Requirements Change in Future?
You may need more or fewer cameras in future. Our setups are flexible so you can add or remove components. We’ll even change storage capacity according to your needs.
Will Wind, Moving Foliage or Other General Movements Trigger Recordings?
We have a solution for limiting unwanted footage. We’ll set up ‘dead zones’ on your security camera installation in Melbourne to prevent unnecessary recordings and we can even black out certain areas of the feed. This means your neighbours won’t have to feel you invade their privacy by recording their activities.
How Do I Access and Download Recorded Footage?
Pick the most practical download option for you: download data to a USB stick or an external drive. You can also download it from the free viewing app. Our technicians are available if you need any assistance.
I Don’t Want to Lose my Data—What if the NVR and Hard Drive Get Stolen?
We can configure the system to host your footage on a cloud back up service. For a minimal monthly or annual fee you can store up to 30 days’ worth of recordings.
I Need Security but I Don’t Have a Large Budget. What are My Options?
Our dummy cameras have proven to deter criminals thanks to their authentic look. They even have LED lights that blink. They cost less but will make criminals think twice before entering the property.
