PTZ Camera Buying Guide
Security devices are for surveillance purposes. The quality and type of cams depend on the sensitivity of the location. PTZ cams are installed for special protection. They are also costly, so making the right choice is very important. Check the following points before making a purchase.
Cloud-Based Device– Your cam must support cloud-based recording. Since these types of devices are used at important locations, so recording is a must. Suppose, someone steals your device, but recording is preserved in the cloud, then your storage is safe, and you can easily judge the intention of the culprits.
Resolution– If the resolution is high, it means images and footage are clear. A high-resolution device must be your preference.
Digital Zoom– Check the zoom in and zoom out. If the image is getting blurred by 2x or 3x zooming in and out, then the far-away object can not be identified clearly.
Night-Vision– Check the spotlight or floodlight of your camera. Maybe your camera is an IR LED attached. EXIR LEDs’ performance is better than normal LEDs. Know the night mode of your camera.
IP Cameras & PoEs– IP Cam is the latest and modern range. Installation is easy, and picture quality is the best. Go for IP appliances only. IP Cameras are network-based security cameras that communicate over a computer network to send a data signal back to the recorder. The data signal may consist of video, & audio. Here, the power and data cable is the same. You don’t have to run separate cabling for both.
Weatherproofing– Check that your cam must be weather and vandal proof. Any outdoor cam has to face tough weather conditions. Your device must withstand it.
WiFi– A wifi cam is easy to connect and operate from a remote location than a wired cam. A wireless device is always beneficial.
Warranty– If any glitch occurs while using the device, then what is the replacement or services policy of the company.
