home surveillance systems are the perfect solution to security in home

and business environment. You can install a security camera system on

your own which can save you lots of money. The only time-consuming

part of the job is running the cables from the recorder to the camera.

If you need to install one in your home or office, to understand a

security system is a must.

Get to know that the digital video recorders (DVRs) are what used to

record video cameras.DVR includes in the system is a H.264

compression DVR that can stores 3x longer video than the older MPEG

compression DVR. Look for DVRs that have remote internet viewing from

any high speed internet connection in the world as well as mobile

phones such as the iPhone, or any phone with the 3G Network.

Determine where you plan to mount the security cameras. It is

important to position them in vital places in the location that you

want to protect. Some of the common areas that you want to monitor

are the cash register, a vault, entrances and exits. Place them in a

high location so that you can get more coverage.

All CCTV security cameras need both power and video, so you can run

just one cable from the DVR to each camera. You can run each camera's

cable up to 700 feet without any video loss. Simply connect the video

cable to the DVR, and plug the power into the power supply RG59

Siamese Cable. It is the type of cable used to run most CCTV installs.

This cable consists of one video cable and one power cable thus the

name Siamese. Designate one location for your DVR and Monitor to be

stationed and be sure you have enough wire to connect the DVR to the

camera

Now that you have your video and power lines connected all you need

to do is plug in the DVR and attach a monitor to the DVR after the

install and connection of the cameras to the CCTV security systems.
