Closed Circuit
Television (CCTV) systems use video cameras to capture video which is
transmitted and viewed on a monitor, thus achieving video surveillance.
CCTV
Surveillance Systems are one of the most powerful security tools that a
business can own and with the technology available today, this essential tool
can protect people, property and information in any type of location - large or
small, from a single office to an entire city. It is thus a useful
GATA Engineering services offers a range of services in this field; from a free site survey to the installation and maintenance of already installed systems.
These provide the ability to view High Definition (HD) CCTV recordings over an IP based local or wide area network. All recordings and analytics (real-time analysis of video for immediate detection and action of events of interest) can hence be reviewed remotely at any point should you desire.
HD CCTV systems allow you to monitor and review specific times, events, alarms and/or actions as well as control your camera orientation - for systems using Pan, Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) cameras.
Features
- Virtually
unlimited storage capabilities can be achieved
- Easy to view,
playback and archive recordings on to external media
- Maintain HD quality during playback mode unlike analogue systems
Benefits
- Store as many
recordings from as many cameras as you want
- Easily search
through vast amounts of HD footage in seconds
- HD image
quality that won’t degrade over time
- Capable of remote access to your CCTV system (view and manage your CCTV system through a tablet or smart phone).
Internet Protocol (IP) Camera System
An Internet protocol camera, or IP camera, is a
type of digital video camera commonly employed for surveillance, and which,
unlike analogue closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras, can send and receive
data via a computer network and the Internet. It is the network that needs to
be used in order for a HD CCTV system to be active.

HYBRID CCTV System
Hybrid CCTV systems are perfect for anyone looking to future proof their CCTV solution. Hybrid gives you the ability to record in both analogue and in HD whilst slowly migrating over to a full HD CCTV solution as your budget allows.
Hybrid CCTV systems combine analogue and IP (HD) cameras and record both to a Network Video Recorder (NVR).
