Choosing which CCTV system is right for you will depend on what you want to monitor (your home or your office, for example), what you need to film (high resolution, black and white, colour), and how you want to connect your system (through a TV, a monitor, or record through a digital video recorder (DVR)). If you want a hand choosing the option that’s best for you, try our CCTV Solution Finder.

DVRs

DVRs enable users to simultaneously monitor and record numerous cameras with motion detection triggers. Any recordings are saved onto the DVR hard drives and can be played back on the DVR itself, or transferred to alternative media. When choosing your DVR, it’s important to consider how many cameras you need it to record. A 4 Channel DVR can be linked up to four CCTV cameras, an 8 Channel DVR to eight cameras, a 16 Channel DVR to 16, and so on. If you’re looking to gain the benefits of a high-end CCTV system in minutes, consider a PCI or USB DVR, which plug directly into the back of your PC.
