Misunderstanding of the choice of infrared network camera

Eliminating the misunderstandings in understanding and recognizing the characteristics of infrared network cameras can speed up the popularization of practical applications.

Questions raised:

When choosing a digital networked multimedia monitoring product, due to subjective and objective factors, various doubts have arisen. It has been difficult to obtain widespread promotion and application in previous years. In the 21st century, with the development and promotion of the information revolution, people’s consciousness has undergone a corresponding transformation with the popularity of broadband networks. However, there are still many misunderstandings in understanding that hinder the development of digitalization and networking. Step generations.

Infrared network camera too "expensive"

When choosing a surveillance product, when one mentions an infrared network camera, one would think that an infrared network camera would cost one to two million yuan, which is too expensive compared to an ordinary camera that is bought for a thousand dollars.

First of all, the infrared IP cameras that were produced in foreign countries actually needed one or two thousand yuan, but the price of a number of products made by domestic manufacturers had been reduced to a few thousand or so, which has greatly reduced the price of the products.

Second, a W74GM infrared network camera is equal to the computer + video capture card + CCD ordinary camera + network card + operating system + software, that is, on the monitor side, only need an infrared network camera to send the video to the network. Therefore, it is not appropriate to use ordinary cameras and infrared network cameras.

Infrared network camera "technical requirements are too high"

When choosing to monitor products, people will think that the network is too complicated and the technical requirements are too high. In fact, this is a kind of fear. The Internet is going into the home. The teenagers have turned the internet around. The network is almost transparent to the project traders and users, or almost no need to control him.

At present, networks are basically based on TCP/IP. Although there are many protocols in the network itself, the network devices (including infrared network cameras) are complicated in technology, but due to the unified network protocol, the products of all manufacturers can do as long as they know the startup/shutdown, arm/disarm and other basic operations. Everything else is done by network products. The true automatic fool-type operation requires no intervention at all.

Infrared network camera "poor image quality"

The infrared network camera is based on the network, simulates the local picture, the monitoring system is based on the video cable (a few adopt the optic fibre) ,Although it is all monitoring, these are two kinds of completely different system structures.

As a manufacturer of infrared network cameras, we emphasize that infrared network cameras are not a panacea because the network itself is not a panacea. We still recommend users to use analog video surveillance systems in cases where the transmission distance is not too far, the monitoring points are few, and there is no need for long-distance transmission.
