Wired cameras have a video cable that runs from the camera to the video input jack on your recording or viewing device. Wireless cameras have a built-in transmitter that sends the video signal to a receiver. The receiver connects to the video input jack on your recording or viewing device.


What is the range of the wireless cameras?

The standard wireless cameras have a range up to 600 feet, depending on the number and type of objects you are transmitting through. The high power transmitter has a 15 mile line of sight range (1000-3000 foot indoor range). Line of sight means there is nothing between the transmitter and receiver, for example building top to building top.


Is a special recorder or monitor needed?

Any recording or viewing device with video input capabilities can be used, for example, a VCR, TV, camcorder or computer.


How long can the cameras record?

The amount of recording time is dictated by your recording device. A standard VCR can record for up to 10 hours if a T-200 tape is used. We also offer long play recorders that will record for 24 to 960 hours on one tape.


What does resolution mean?

Resolution measures the cameras ability to reproduce an image. The higher the resolution, the better the picture quality.


What does lux mean?

Lux is the measure of light the camera needs to reproduce an image. The lower the number the less light the camera needs.


Do the covert cameras have audio?

Audio is only available to law enforcement agencies due to federal law Title 18, Section 2512.


Are the transmitters FCC approved?

The transmitters used in all of our wireless systems are FCC approved.
