The Benefits of installing CCTV Camera Systems.




Obviously, the biggest advantage is the security aspects that both CCTV can bring your company. CCTV will allow you to keep a track on people within your store to ensure that they do not shoplift, and if they do then you have proof that they attempted to do it. This of course will result in a much greater chance of successful prosecution. Alarms will stop people entering your building out of hours. If the alarm is triggered then you will be contacted, as well as the police in order to deal with the situation. If any property was taken during the break in, then the CCTV will be there to get a recording of the people that entered, once again maximising the chances of bringing a successful prosecution, and of course getting your property back. All together this should help you save money in the long run. There has also been a big increase on domestic properties having CCTV installed nowadays as well. It is the best way of protecting your property from opportunist burglaries and vandalism. The Systems act as a deterrent for crime, If people see that these are in place then they will be much less willing to commit crime against that property. In residential premises, if you have a CCTV Camera in place, you will find that you feel much safer in your property, this will give peace of mind to the homeowner.
As you can see, the benefits of CCTV and alarms are far reaching, in this day and age it IS the best way to protect your property, whether you own a residential or commercial premises.

Should we be upgrading to HD-SDI CCTV technology?

Your old analog system has served its purpose and it's time to upgrade. Like your television, surveillance systems have gone digital HD and if you're like most people you will want to take advantage of the high quality video made available to you. With HD-SDI you have the ability to simply swap out your existing analog cameras and digital recorder and install a newer HD quality system quickly. Taking advantage of your existing coax cable and power makes this transition simple and effective. You can enjoy 128 times higher resolution than your standard analog cameras and take advantage of the digital zoom capabilities provided by the megapixel video. It has never been easier to upgrade your existing system. 


CCTV Image quality advice


Your CCTV is only as good as the last picture it took.
Make sure your system is of high enough quality to guarantee that the images you need are good enough to use as evidence.
The Downside of installing budget CCTV Equipment is if the evidence you need is no good then that few ££ you saved can turn out to be a total waste of money and investment.

At CCTV SUPPLIERS UK we guarantee all our cameras to stand up to the quality you need when installing surveillance.

CCTV networks



A common estimate used is that made in 2002 where it was estimated[10] that the United Kingdom was monitored by over 4.2 million CCTV cameras, some with a facial recognition capacity, with practically all cities and towns under 24-hour surveillance. However, many have strongly condemned the assumptions behind that estimate, noting that it involved the extrapolation of observation from one 1.5 km long street in Putney, London to the entire population of the UK.[11] In addition, the vast majority of cameras are not operated by the UK Government, but by private companies, especially to monitor the interiors of shops and businesses. According to 2009 Freedom of Information Act requests, the total number of local authority operated CCTV cameras was around 60,000 over the entirety of the UK.[12]
Currently, in the City of Westminster, microphones are being fitted next to CCTV cameras. Westminster council claims that they are simply part of an initiative against urban noise, and will not "be used to snoop", but comments from a council spokesman appear to imply that they have been deliberately designed to capture an audio stream alongside the video stream, rather than simply reporting noise levels.[13]
As of Feb 2010, many larger cities in the UK now have CCTV in which if an operator spots anything illegal or troubling, they are able to speak through the cameras via loudspeaker into the street, and some also have microphones to allow them to hear what the public are saying.

Closed Circuit Television


Closed-circuit television (CCTV) is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific place, on a limited set of monitors. It differs from broadcast television in that the signal is not openly transmitted, though it may employ point to point (P2P), point to multipoint, or mesh wireless links. Though almost all video cameras fit this definition, the term is most often applied to those used forsurveillance in areas that may need monitoring such as banks, casinos, airports, military installations, and convenience stores. Videotelephony is seldom called "CCTV" but the use of video in distance education, where it is an important tool, is often so called.[1][2]
In industrial plants, CCTV equipment may be used to observe parts of a process from a central control room, for example when the environment is not suitable for humans. CCTV systems may operate continuously or only as required to monitor a particular event. A more advanced form of CCTV, utilizing digital video recorders (DVRs), provides recording for possibly many years, with a variety of quality and performance options and extra features (such as motion-detection and email alerts). More recently, decentralized IP-based CCTV cameras, some equipped with megapixel sensors, support recording directly to network-attached storage devices, or internal flash for completely stand-alone operation. Surveillance of the public using CCTV is particularly common in many areas around the world including the United Kingdom, where there are reportedly more cameras per person than in any other country in the world.[3] There and elsewhere, its increasing use has triggered a debate about security versus privacy.
