Closed Circuit Television (CCTV)
“Closed circuit television (CCTV) is the use of video cameras to transmit signal to a specific, limited set of monitors. It differs from broadcast television in that the signal is not openly transmitted, though it may employ point to point wireless links. CCTV is often used for surveillance in areas that may need monitoring such as banks, casinos, airports, military installations, convenience stores and more. More advanced form of CCTV, utilizing Digital Video Recorders (DVR), provide recording for possibly many years, with a variety of quality and performance options and extra features (such as motion-detection and email alerts). In industrial plants, CCTV equipment may be used to observe parts of a process from a central control room; when, for example, the environment is not comfortable for humans. CCTV systems may operate continuously or only as required to monitor a particular event.”

From a single, cost-effective black and white camera and monitor to color cameras in multiple locations, CCTV functions as an extra set of eyes, enabling you to be in several places at once. In fact, CCTV images can be transmitted via the Internet, for on-demand viewing from literally anywhere. In addition to streamlining surveillance operations, digital storage provides event tracking and analysis capabilities.
