WHY YOU NEED CCTV
THE BENEFITS OF HAVING CCTV SECURITY SYSTEMS
As top CCTV installation specialists in Botswana, keeping your business safe is a necessity in any industry and for this reason, CCTV and security systems have gained popularity in today’s modern world. As a business owner, securing your establishment and premises should be the first step to ensure there is no risk for loss, injury, or theft on your grounds. Whether you provide products or services, your valuables within your business need to be protected and looked after at all hours of the day.
Security Systems Can Reduce Your Property Insurance
Some insurance companies will reduce your premiums once you have a security system set in place. Protecting your establishment may ensure your goods are protected and could result in lower premiums for your policy.
Can Prevent Internal And External Theft Or Robbery
Not only do security systems keep burglars at bay, but if an intruder can see that your establishment is well secured and you have cameras or alarms, they may be discouraged to target your business or store. This is true for employees and customers within your business as well.
CCTV Systems Provide Added Security To Your Premises
Having guards within your premises may reduce theft and suspicious activity in your business, however, on the ground security cannot monitor everything. It is important to have security cameras and monitors to keep track of people constantly flowing in and out of your premises. This is especially important for busy establishments like retail shops, warehouses, and factories.
A Great Way To Gather Information
CCTV may not prevent all theft and robbery attempts, but it is a great tool that can be utilized if someone successfully steals from your or threatens your workplace. Security cameras enable you to document activities and events that may happen within your establishment. Having helpful information about the people who enter your business can help identify the culprits and help the police find them faster.

TYPES OF CCTV SYSTEMS
WHAT WE OFFER
Digital Video Recorder (DVR)
With analogue camera technology being discontinued with the progression of Megapixel IP camera systems, the DVR (Digital Video Recorders) have evolved into Hybrid systems able to accommodate outdated analogue cameras, newer technology High Definition over coax cameras as well as support for some IP cameras. The biggest difference on a DVR is that the processing of the video footage is all done by the DVR. With the flexibility of a DVR an older installation can be upgraded at a lower cost as the majority of the existing cabling infrastructure can be used and only the upgrading of the cameras and DVR is required. For most small businesses this is more than adequate. Cameras can be upgraded from analogue to a 1,2,3,4 or 5MP camera. With the flexibility of Hybrid technology additional IP cameras can be added to areas requiring better picture quality.
Network Video Recorder (NVR)
The NVR (Network Video Recorder) is the solution for Megapixel IP cameras. With an NVR the video images are processed by the camera and the NVR stores the footage. This equates to the higher price of the cameras, but more functionality, the ability for more storage, as well as the better-quality video that is available with IP cameras. Although a stand-alone network is preferable for a CCTV system, existing networking infrastructure for example POE switches to power the cameras as well as spare Fibre can be used to reduce installation costs.

VMS Software
Video management software takes your surveillance system to a new level. Bringing you all the features of an NVR and DVR, and additional functionality like Pop up alarms, site maps, video walls. The VMS brings together multiple recording units into a platform to view all the cameras, Video wall functionality gives you the option to lace multiple screens together to view hundreds of cameras seamlessly. Pop up alarms along side Site maps can create a black screen effect of monitoring your surveillance system. Instead of operators meaninglessly viewing hundreds of cameras, only video feed of cameras that have been activated by an event will pop up visually on the screen. This pop up can be integrated with an audible alert ensuring your controller is made aware of any situation. Integrating this alarm with a site map instantly alerts your Security to the exact location of this alarmed event.

HD CCTV SYSTEMS
Analogue High Definition or HD allows for high-definition analogue signals to be transmitted via RG59 coaxial cable traditionally used for CCTV installations. To the customer, this means dramatic cost savings as existing cabling may be utilised but still provide high-quality images previously only possible from IP or network-based CCTV systems. High-definition analogue systems furthermore reduce the need for expensive network switches and allow for a longer transmission of video signals of distances up to 300m vs the 100m limitation on network-based systems.
The technology is commonly marketed under the following names depending on brand and manufacturer:
HDCVI – High-Definition Composite Video Input used by Dahua brand.
HDTVI – High-Definition Transport Video Interface used by Hikvision brand.
AHD – Analogue high definition is the generic terminology
IP CCTV SYSTEMS
An IP camera is the evolution from an analogue signal to a digital signal. IP cameras are based on the same networking technology used to connect computers (PCs) to a network switch. The term IP camera is an acronym for Internet Protocol. IP cameras are also commonly referred to as HD cameras, High-Definition cameras, and Megapixel Cameras. Megapixel means millions of pixels.
IP cameras achieve a higher resolution than analogue cameras. Security camera resolution comparison examples below.
ANALOGUE VS IP CAMERAS
Below is an example of an IP camera and an Analogue camera.
Both cameras were recorded at the exact same time looking at the same object. A two-megapixel IP camera was used with a 3-9mm lens with the lens set at the widest setting.
The Analogue camera had the exact same lens also set to the widest setting at the highest recording quality.

THERMAL CAMERAS
Thermal cameras, also known as Infrared cameras or night vision cameras.
For a long time, thermal cameras have mainly been used by the military. Advances in technology and cheaper prices due to these technological advances have made them steadily more available and a great choice for a variety of applications.
Although mainly for law enforcement, surveillance and perimeter security, thermal cameras are also used in the commercial sector.
Normal CCTV cameras work by gathering light to obtain the images. There is limited detection at night as light illuminates only a certain small area.
Thermal cameras gather their image from infrared radiation (heat). The advantage of this over normal cameras is the ability to view the same picture quality in almost any environmental condition. From pitch black in the dead of night, during obscurities like rain, mist, snow or smoke, thermal cameras will ensure the same picture.
Thermal cameras are also capable of viewing much greater distances than standard CCTV cameras. Detection of a human can be achieved from a few meters to a few kilometres away, depending on lenses used and environmental conditions.
With Thermal cameras you are able to monitor temperature, enabling you to monitor critical equipment as well as protect your perimeter.
Thermal cameras are available in a variety of models and options:
Hand Held Thermals – Perfect for guards on patrol or pursuing a suspect.
Portable Thermals– Able to be fitted to a Drone giving you the ability to quickly and efficiently survey large areas. Whether you are looking for a suspect hiding in a field, or you would like to do a count of cattle or game on your farm this is a great option for you.
PT Thermals (Pan-tilt Thermals) – Thermal cameras with Pan and tilt functions, give your operators accurate pointing control while also providing automated fully programmable scan patterns.
Fixed-mount Thermal cameras – Available in a range of lenses these Thermals are perfect for monitoring critical equipment, being able to give you exact running temperatures, and giving you the information, you require accurately. Fixed Thermals are the perfect solution for your perimeter protection, combined with cutting edge video analytics, you are able to create virtual barriers that will inform your controllers of potential intruders before they are able to breach your perimeter.
