Analog CCTV camera systems have been around for decades and are known for their reliability in the security industry. Analog CCTV Cameras are limited to capturing 960H resolution which is 960 x 480 pixels, and then sending videos over a coaxial cable to a DVR.
AHD (Analog High Definition) CCTV Camera systems use the same coax cables as traditional analog/analogue CCTV cameras, therefore allowing a very long range between AHD camera and HD DVR. It can capture high-definition footage up to 1080p resolution and transmit in an uncompressed format to an HD-DVR. These AHD cameras are ideal for surveillance systems providing you with a greater resolution and quality video footage than standard Analog CCTV cameras and DVRs.
Why is the resolution of security cameras so important? Resolution is the amount of detail captured by a camera; it refers to the size of the image captured by a CCTV camera.
Resolution is one of the first important specifications you need to consider looking at. You must choose a camera with a reasonably high resolution because you do not want the surveillance footage to be pixelated or extremely unclear.
AHD cameras include different resolution formats like 720P, 1080N, and 1080P. 720P has a pixel aspect ratio of 1280 x 720, 1080N and HD 1080P may sound pretty similar, but they are very different. 1080P has 1920 x 1080 pixels, while 1080N on the other hand is only 1080 x 960 pixels.
Elinz 1080P AHD cameras offer unparalleled clarity and sharpness so you can see the important details on recorded footage, with a frame rate of up to 25 frames per second it provides smooth motion in videos that are less susceptible to motion blur.
CCTV in general is designed to help prevent and detect crime and is meant for video recording. Some people tend to know the position of the CCTV and they can stay out of the frame or there will be times when incidents happen but you can't catch the image due to the blind spot.
When installing surveillance cameras it is very important to assess how they are positioned. Always remember that it is an offense to record people without their consent in places where they would expect to be private, such as a bedroom, bathroom, or change room, etc. Installing your cameras in a way that breaches the criminal code may result in a prosecution. You should not compromise the privacy of your family, neighbours, public or your employees.
Elinz's new AHD CCTV cameras are equipped with microphones which are sensitive enough to pick up sound within the monitoring zones. This means you will have an extra layer of security for being able to hear when someone is causing destruction or theft, which can also benefit any investigation. This feature can be turned on or off by going to Menu > Encode Settings > Audio.
Safety and security is important, but it can be even more important in night time and low light conditions. Look for CCTV cameras with the ability to replicate a black-and-white image without any visible white light is very impressive.

To maximize your hard drive storage space it is ideal to have a cctv that encodes H.265 video codecs. H.265 video coding is an advanced video compression standard that can encode video files twice as efficiently as its predecessor H.264. It brings huge bandwidth savings of approximately 40-50% with similar quality.
A Graphical User Interface is a crucial part of the operation and management of a CCTV surveillance system. It is ideal to present relevant information quickly in a readily understood form.
