Consider the Benefits of a Wireless Security Camera System
Wi-Fi security cameras may be the only alternative if standard Ethernet cables cannot be installed in your building. IP wireless security cameras offer the same superior image quality as wired IP cameras and can be installed to support indoor, outdoor, day or night requirements for your home or small-business. Don’t want to swap out your wired IP cameras for wireless? You don’t have to. Integrate wired IP security cameras with a wireless bridge.
How do wireless security camera systems work?
Wireless security cameras capture digital images and transfer the images through Wi-Fi to the network. Do keep in mind: Power needs to be run to each Wi-Fi security camera. As with a wired security camera, images are stored on local storage devices (e.g., DVR) or on storage devices hosted elsewhere. Images can be viewed remotely on PCs, laptops, notebooks, tablets, smart phones.
Wi-Fi Security
An unsecured Wi-Fi camera is subject to data interception, but once enabled, the many security levels of a wireless security camera prevent unauthorized access: WPA2-PSK, WPA2-802.1x, HTTPS encryption, IP address filtering, multiple user access levels.
