How to design a monitoring system? We present all activities on the example of HIKVISION

The importance of having monitoring is constantly being emphasized. This applies both to business owners and homeowners. Security of the nearest and dearest, protection of property and the ability to continuously verify what is going on - these are some of the dozens of arguments for choosing monitoring. If you already have made this decision, get valuable tips on how to design a monitoring system.

Plan the number of cameras and their type

If you run a business, it's important to think about how many points you want to observe. Count the external cameras that will prove necessary, but also check the internal ones. Remember that if you are going to monitor a building inside, you have to inform the staff about it. When deciding on the number of cameras, you must also consider their type. Currently, IP cameras that have access to Wi-FI will be the best, and you can use the live view at all times, but also check the recordings. For this you will also need a video recorder. You will find an excellent selection of cameras for monitoring and video recorders in our online shop. We particularly recommend the sets from Hikvision.

What to pay attention to when choosing a camera?

The first issue worth paying special attention to is whether the system of a given brand has a program or application that you can install on your mobile phone. Few people pay attention to this issue at the very beginning, unfortunately problems arise when you do not have access to the cameras during travel. Hikvision offers its customers the Hit-Connect application, which not only allows you to view the camera images in real time but also sends alarms and helps prevent many unpleasant situations before it is too late.

Cameras selected - what next?

If you have already selected both the number of cameras and the manufacturer, it's time to make more decisions. The cameras should be selected according to your needs, so you have to decide if you want everything to be recorded at night with incredible precision? Do you expect HD quality? Or maybe your camera should have a memory card reader? What resolution do you require? If you don't know what features your camera should have and you can't decide, contact our experts. They will explain to you what is hidden under specific parameters and what they mean in practice. We will be happy to help you choose the right solution.

The best option for businesses - a convenient set

When it comes to selecting and installing a home monitoring system the whole process, from planning to implementation, is much easier than in the case of businesses. Even more so if your company is large in terms of size and has several possible entrances. It is worth to pay attention to sets with cameras and video recorders. Such a solution is primarily cheaper than buying each of these elements separately. In addition, you can be sure that you get a complete set which is not missing anything. Hikvision offers its customers solutions tailored to their capabilities and expectations. Among them is, for example, a set Hikvision HWK-N4142TH-MH. It consists of four robust cameras, which will ensure great quality of recordings, as well as a video recorder. The cameras are capable of performing well even when it is dark, recording in HD quality, and also have progressive scanning. The video recorder not only saves the recordings, but also compresses them, i.e. reduces the disk space they take up. This is just one of the Hikvision sets available in our online store. We have a lot of other sets, which were created for users with very specific requirements. These are, for example, camera and video recorder sets, which stand out with their features, like: focal lenses, PoE, memory slots and many others. The more technologically advanced solutions, the more expensive the set will be. Therefore, it will be best if you define your needs and ask yourself questions such as: how many cameras I need, what functions should I have, whether I care about recording at night. If you don't know what questions you should ask, or if you don't know what advantages are behind the specific solutions, please contact us. We will advise, help and explain.
