A CCTV camera system makes use of video cameras, also called surveillance cameras to keep track of the interior and exterior of a property, transmit the signal to a monitor or set of monitors, and give real-time 24/7 viewing access.
Main Features of NVR Security Systems
Integrates with IP Cameras: Unlike DVR systems, which are directly wired to analog cameras, NVRs work with internet protocol (IP) cameras that can send and receive information across a network, and record high-quality visual and audio footage.
Processes Video Data at the Camera: IP cameras are capable of encoding and processing video data, which means network video recorders don’t require an encoder. Rather, processed footage is streamed to the NVR recorder for viewing and storing.
Provides Remote Access to Footage: Since NVR camera systems are usually connected to the internet, footage can be accessed remotely via mobile devices and desktop applications.
Wireless Connections: In an NVR system, each IP camera is connected individually to a single network which is configured, either wirelessly or via Cat5e and Cat6 ethernet cables.
Operates on a Closed Circuit: Just because NVR camera systems can connect to a network, doesn’t mean they have to. If businesses aren’t interested in having remote access to their IP cameras, these systems can operate like conventional CCTV solutions.
