These cameras act as a visible deterrent to criminals and feature weatherproof casting, making it ideal for outdoor use, especially for monitoring a stretch of road. Thus, it is popular in logistics, food and manufacturing industries. 
  4. PTZ Pan Tilt & Zoom Camera can pan tilt up and down, left and right or zoom in and out with a 360-degree field of vision. It is popular in large environments, such as shopping malls and museums. 
  5. Infrared/Night Vision CCTV Camera can operate in a pitch-black environment by using infrared technology. It is frequently used in farms, banks and manufacturing plants. 
  6. Day/Night CCTV Camera will record clear video footage, whether day or night. It is the best CCTV system for businesses that require 24/7 monitoring in an outdoor environment.
  7. Wireless CCTV Camera is easy to install and much tidier. It transmits images via the Internet and provides access from any location. It is a great choice for improving indoor business security in such locations as museums or churches.
  8. IP/Network CCTV Camera shares live footage via the Internet providing access from anywhere anytime. This is the best choice for business owners who are often on the move and away.
