DVR and CCTV advice.

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone

 

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend who needs some advice. He came and asked me as I work in IT (obviously that makes me the world authority on anything that uses electricity).

 

He owns a bar and the police have told him he's got to change his 10 year old video cctv system to digital.

 

the cameras are ok, but he has to replace an two cams to infrared low light and colour low light camera.

 

He's also got to get a 16 or 12 channel digital dvr system. holds at least 31 days footage.

 

What do you recommend as the most cost effective dvr system and cameras ? if they mention frame rates, if they are of equal frame rate, I guess quality and storage size is the same ?

 

If consumer tech is anything to go by, certain manufacturers should be avoided and some always very good. any advice ?

 

how do you back up a dvr - incase hard drive fails ?

 

can you use any hard disk in these things. I see some are charging £300 for the 1tb HD upgrade. They cost £60 normally.

 

Lots of stuff on ebay. - anything I should watch out for ?

 

sorry for the scatty post, but my friend does not have the foggiest about this stuff. He's had a few companies quote, some prices are quite contrasting. He doesn't know who is friend or conman.

Currently,most of the hotel need the modern management and security protection. The best solution is to provide the network enabled monitoring and multi-level network management.The units we provide can be promoted to be a multi-level network enabled large security surveillance system which can simultaneously remotely monitor multiple factories from the headquarter. For each hotel monitoring system, according to the actual hotel size, the cameras required range from 8 to hundreds.

The units provided here can be combined flexibly to set up a large security system.

The system we provide here includes 16 night vision cameras and one 16-channel network enabled remote monitoring and video storing device.The recording time is around one week

 

 

 

System advantages:

1. 24 hours non-stop operation.

2. remote playback, setup, monitoring and access right management.

3. Video recording and snap shots in multiple methods.

4. The system can store more than one week's video and also the recorded video can be automatically overlapped.

5. It's an embedded system which prevents the attacking from the virus.

6. It provides 30 meters or 50 meters optional night vision distance.

7. Automatic day and night switching (color and black switch) to keep the video clear.

there are many options for choosing a DVR, finalize what suits the requirements and budget.

 

sample choices are of and not limited to:

 

*DVR stand alone or PC based

 

*MPEG4 or H.264

 

*option such as DVD writer, Multiple USB ports, Disk expansion array etc.etc.

 

i am sure there is a reputable shop right near you, check out what he has to offer then from there you can narrow down choices

I am not sure whether he has ordered the product already. I think I would provide the best service for his needs. we are the CCTV manufacturer, please send me PM on this site for more information.

I think I could help you to set up the system in shortly one week.

 

I would strongly suggest for one embedded DVR ,not use pc based.

you need to install the driver, insert the board on the pci slot...that would confuses people. also maybe the graphic card doesn't work well with the board ...things happen...

 

also embedded dvr is easy to use and stable.
