An IP camera sends digital video over a network cable (PoE) or Wi-Fi and gives clearer pictures than older analogue cameras. PoE cameras need one cable for power and video and are the most reliable. Pair them with an NVR and a PoE switch.
Key takeaways
- PoE needs one cable for power and video.
- Wi-Fi cameras are easy but less reliable at range.
- 4MP is the best value for most sites.
- You need an NVR or memory card to record.
- Use Cat6 cable and a PoE switch.
