So aside from 24 hour a day security surveillance, your CCTV system can be used to monitor health and safety procedures, staff productivity and attendance across a huge site from a single location. One of the benefits of modern technology is that with digital cameras your system can be monitored from anywhere in the world over a secure connection. When it comes to recording your footage, those huge banks of VCRs and shelves of tapes are ancient history. Digital footage is recorded digitally, and active triggers means that footage is only stored when the camera is actually ‘seeing’ something happen. Scalable recording quality allows you to trade off capacity for picture quality, allowing you to tailor your system to your needs without buying equipment you don’t need.
