This is also known as IP Surveillance. IP CCTV is usually a system of surveillance units joined together by a singular network which allows businesses to monitor all areas of their property.

Internet Protocol Closed Circuit Television allows businesses to stream live images of their company premises and keep them on a internet connection.

There are many reasons why IP CCTV is much more useful than analogue CCTV. Cheap to install and manage, minimal cabling is required and the images captured are almost free to save on line. Unlike normal CCTV networks IP CCTV allows businesses to easily turn images into data which can be quickly sent to a network. Once stored on the network the data can be accessed via a data centre where they can be looked at.

When it comes to using the system often IP CCTV offers far more flexibility when it comes to viewing footage, along with better camera angles and improved resolution compared to standard CCTV.

The way in which IP CCTV works means that businesses don't need to spend hours searching through footage because they have more control over the footage from the start - each security camera has its own IP number which makes cross referencing much simpler. All of the data is collated and saved on the same singular network, which makes it much easier to search for the correct date and times thus making your life much easier.

The main advantage of IP CCTV is that the images can be accessed from any browser anywhere in the world if the desired user has the correct login information.
