Security Camera Questions to Consider
Equipment Considerations
- Are you keeping any legacy cameras, or installing all-new systems?
- Who will have access to live or recorded video—owners, HR, management?
Camera Placement Strategy
- What key areas need surveillance—entryways, registers, storage rooms?
- How many days of footage do you need to retain? How many cameras will affect your storage needs?
Networking
- Will the system be integrated with your existing network, or separate?
- Do you already have Power over Ethernet infrastructure in place?
- What’s the distance from your IDF/MDF to each camera?
Additional Considerations
- Camera Type: Do you need cameras that deter or blend in?
- Lighting Conditions: Will night vision or IR be required?
- Field of View & Resolution: What level of clarity do you need to identify people or vehicles?
We help you navigate these questions to build the right system for your facility from the start.
