FAQ
A hardwired 4K security camera system is a surveillance setup that consists of high-resolution cameras connected to a central recording unit via physical cables, typically Ethernet or coaxial cables.
Wireless Signals: Wireless security cameras transmit video and audio data wirelessly over Wi-Fi or other radio frequencies. These signals can be intercepted by skilled hackers using specialized equipment, especially if the network is not properly secured.
Security Risks: If the wireless network used by the security cameras is not adequately protected, hackers may gain unauthorized access to the camera feed. This can lead to privacy breaches, unauthorized surveillance, or even the manipulation of footage for malicious purposes.
Brute Force Attacks: Hackers may attempt to gain access to a wireless security camera system by using brute force attacks, which involve systematically trying different password combinations until the correct one is found. Weak or easily guessable passwords are particularly vulnerable to this type of attack.
Denial of Service (DoS) Attacks: In some cases, hackers may launch DoS attacks against wireless security camera systems to disrupt their operation or overload the network with excessive traffic. This can temporarily disable the cameras and leave the premises vulnerable to security threats.
- YES!
- We caught a drive by shooter not to mention numerous other crimes, caught on video! THATS CALLED Evidence!!
High Resolution: 4K cameras provide ultra-high-definition (UHD) resolution, typically with a resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels. This high resolution enables the capture of detailed images and videos, allowing for clearer identification of objects, faces, and license plates, even at a distance.
Enhanced Clarity: The higher pixel density of 4K resolution results in sharper and more detailed images compared to lower-resolution cameras. This enhanced clarity is particularly valuable in security applications, where accurate identification and analysis of events are crucial.
Improved Digital Zoom: With higher resolution footage, users can digitally zoom in on specific areas of interest without significant loss of detail. This allows for more effective post-event analysis and investigation, as important details can be examined closely even after the fact.
Better Coverage: 4K cameras can cover larger areas with fewer cameras compared to lower-resolution options. This means fewer blind spots in surveillance coverage and more comprehensive monitoring of the premises, which is especially beneficial for large properties or expansive outdoor areas.
Future-Proofing: As technology advances and display devices become increasingly capable of supporting 4K resolution, investing in 4K security cameras ensures compatibility with future hardware and software upgrades. This future-proofing helps to extend the lifespan of the security system and maintain its effectiveness over time.
Enhanced Forensic Analysis: High-resolution footage captured by 4K cameras provides forensic investigators with valuable evidence for analyzing incidents, identifying suspects, and prosecuting criminals. The level of detail captured by 4K cameras can be crucial in legal proceedings and law enforcement investigations.
Deterrent Effect: The presence of 4K cameras, with their ability to capture clear and detailed images, acts as a deterrent to criminal activity. Potential intruders are less likely to attempt unlawful acts when they know their actions are being monitored by high-resolution surveillance cameras.
Overall, the superior image quality, enhanced clarity, and broader coverage provided by 4K security cameras make them an ideal choice for capturing video in various security applications, ranging from residential properties and commercial establishments to public spaces and critical infrastructure.
Expertise in this area is key. We have seen where the burglars on what they od and how they do it. Placement should cover key areas vulnerable to intrusion or incidents. Cameras should be positioned to capture faces and license plates where necessary. Considerations for lighting conditions and potential obstructions should also be taken into account. We have experience on design for all types of matters that can be affecting your home or business OR it might simply be that you are wanting to manage your business more effectively. Our experts are there tp help!
The number of cameras needed depends on the size and layout of the property. A professional assessment can help determine the optimal placement and number of cameras.
The storage duration depends on factors such as the capacity of the hard drive, the number of cameras, recording settings (such as resolution and frame rate), and motion detection sensitivity. Also, some businesses require a certain amount of storage days on your system to be compliant. We are able to help your achieve this goals! We will do whatever it takes to help!

NO! It’s a stand alone system. We don’t want a burglar to break the centralized box with everything from alarm, to cameras etc. This is a burglars dream to break one thing and disarm everything!
This is why we like the stand alone system.
Yes, of course!
We have witnessed every single crime you can imagine and understand exactly what you specifically need based what you share with us!
Here are a few why it matters;
Technical Expertise: Experienced installers possess in-depth technical knowledge of security camera systems, including different types of cameras, wiring configurations, and network setups. This expertise ensures that the system is installed correctly the first time, minimizing the risk of errors or malfunctions.
Site Assessment: Experienced installers can conduct a thorough assessment of the property to determine the optimal camera placements and coverage areas. They understand how factors such as lighting conditions, obstructions, and potential blind spots can affect camera performance and adjust the installation accordingly.
Customization and Integration: Every property has unique security needs, and experienced installers can tailor the camera system to meet those specific requirements. They can recommend the most suitable camera types, features, and integration options based on the property’s layout, security concerns, and budget.
Compliance and Regulations: Experienced installers are familiar with local regulations, building codes, and privacy laws governing the installation of security camera systems. They ensure that the system is installed in compliance with all relevant regulations, mitigating the risk of legal issues or fines down the line.
Optimized Performance: Proper installation is essential for optimizing the performance of the security camera system. Experienced installers know how to set up cameras for optimal viewing angles, adjust camera settings for the best image quality, and configure network settings for reliable connectivity and remote access.
Troubleshooting and Support: In the event of technical issues or system malfunctions, experienced installers can quickly diagnose and troubleshoot problems, minimizing downtime and disruption to security operations. They also provide ongoing support and maintenance services to ensure the system remains operational and effective.
Cost-Effectiveness: While hiring experienced installers may involve upfront costs, it can ultimately save money in the long run by avoiding costly mistakes, rework, or system failures. Experienced installers get the job done efficiently and effectively, maximizing the value of the investment in a security camera system.
Peace of Mind: Knowing that the security camera system has been installed by experienced professionals provides peace of mind to property owners and occupants. They can trust that the system will function reliably, providing the security and protection they need for their property and assets.
