The state of the art in external home and business security and surveillance systems these days includes the use of outdoor wireless security cameras. These cameras are capable of transmitting images to your computer network so you are able to record live video, take pictures in time, and monitor the outside of your home or business.
Cost of a System
If you already have a decent network, $500 should cover the cost. This cost can increase with each additional outdoor wireless security camera.
How They Work
The image captured on the camera does not go to a tape inside the unit; instead, it is broadcast via your home wireless system to the computer you have set up to receive it. Once received, a program decodes it and allows you to view it; either one camera at a time or on a split screen allowing you to watch multiple feeds at once.
At this point in time you have a choice: you can either record the video feed to your hard drive, to a tape backup system, or let it play live. Oftentimes the video feed can be quite lengthy, so make sure you have plenty of room to record it on. In some cases a second hard drive may be required.
Experts suggest keeping at least a month's worth of video on your computer. You just might discover an item that has actually been missing for a full three weeks. You then would still have the ability to use the video from your outdoor wireless security camera in solving the crime.
Camera Locations
When you are initially placing these outdoor wireless security cameras around the outdoor corridor of your home, you should keep a couple of factors in mind. You will want to place them where they will be protected from the weather, and where you will be able to reach them with your ladder when it is time to clean the lens and perform routine maintenance.
The biggest problem you are most likely to encounter is signal blockage. Try and avoid having any plumbing or electrical wiring between the cameras and your computer. If this does not look like a situation you can avoid, then you might need to purchase a home wireless jumper unit that would capture the signal from the home video outdoor wireless security camera and send it on to your computer, avoiding the problem spots.
Use extra caution when installing outdoor wireless security cameras high up in trees or on buildings. |
