See what matters. Keep the system manageable.
Plan camera placement, cabling, recording, authorized remote viewing, and monitoring displays as one connected system for the property.
The problem
More cameras do not automatically create better visibility.
Useful coverage depends on placement, image conditions, recording, storage, network and power, authorized access, displays, and a handoff people can operate.
