What are IP cameras?
IP cameras use an IP video surveillance system to monitor, record, and transmit video footage from a specific location. The difference between an IP camera and standard CCTV is that IP is transmitted over the Internet, often using wireless broadband technology. It can be managed from a remote location to observe several premises at once. The camera itself is a stand-alone piece of equipment that transfers captured images to your Web browser. This means the technology operates over the Web rather than closed-circuit television. Many of these devices include onboard processors and Internet software that’s compatible with the equipment at central monitoring stations which permits a seamless transfer of data.
