Safeguarding Your Investment With The Help Of Security Surveillance

By Valry E Dorah


As soon as my business partner and I started out our store, we mounted a high-end security system. It covered the entire store except the stockroom simply because we presumed that we wouldn't need to worry about personnel stealing from us.

About 1 year into operation, this proved to be a mistake as losses due to theft were some of our most significant liabilities. Therefore, to minimize our losses and capture the thieves, we installed a day and night CCTV dome camera within the storeroom.

Day and night cameras are built to accommodate the around-the-clock recording of a specific area. We selected a wired camera, as opposed to a wireless camera, so that it could be powered continuously and we would not have to worry about changing or recharging batteries.

Our surveillance camera is capable of working in light and dark environments. It puts to use a 1/2 inch Sony Super HAD CCD image sensor which captures clear footage and can output it just as clearly at a resolution of 480 TV lines.

This security camera is designed for indoor use even though made of tough housing that could withstand outdoor use as well. Based on the maker, it is able to work at temperatures as low as -10 degrees Celsius and as high as 50 degrees Celsius.

Even though capable of low-light operation, it's not the most light-sensitive video camera on the market. So, to compensate, it comes equipped with IR lights that can illuminate a target about 50 feet away.

We fitted ours in a corner of the room and positioned it so that there is nothing of interest beneath the camera's blind spot. It is connected to our present surveillance system and records footage all day and night.

Almost immediately, our day and night CCTV dome camera offered some ROI, as we were able to apprehend the criminals and press charges against them for pilferage. Through the years, our losses due to theft have gone down and it is all thanks to this one little camera.
