Understanding Types of Cameras

Dome style security cameras are named for their shape, and blend into their surroundings which make it difficult to see which direction the camera is aiming at. They can be used indoors or outdoors. Durable metal and high impact plastic make dome style security cameras vandal resistant and weatherproof. This dome camera contains a PTZ camera meaning you can control the pan, tilt and zoom of the camera remotely.

We use a lot of turret cameras in Santa Cruz County. Over time they prove themselves more reliable and impervious to the marine layer than dome cameras which tend to heat up inside and cause fogging and condensation more than domes. Our new 24/7 color camera turrets are made of metal and glass.

Active surveillance cameras are motion sensitive and will automatically find, zoom and follow subjects in it’s viewing range.  Add the high power UV beams they come equipped with and these cameras miss nothing. The really fun part of these cameras is that they are also your live cameraman if your home is on a East or West Cliff and you want a channel on your TV always tuned to the surfing outside.

Licence Plate Reading  systems are often used to track known offenders, but they can increase security and business optimization for any business. LPRs are ideal for parking lots, gated communities, apartment complexes, and hotels

 

Modern Wiring will also install your Costco or Amazon.com purchased system. Note: These cameras are traditionally made of plastic, (Body and lens) This will reduce the lifespan fo the camera to a year or two depending on the position and elements.

Typically, systems are offered in multiples of 4, 8, 16 and 32 channel. You can always use less cameras in a system but keeping the number of cameras under any of these base numbers will save you $$$

Yes we install store-bought camera systems!
