Learn the differences between 2MP, 5MP, and IP CCTV cameras, night vision requirements, and mobile app live view setup for Garhwa & Palamu properties.

Security is essential for retail shops, godowns, schools, and residences across Jharkhand. Choosing the right surveillance setup prevents blind spots, captures clear number plates, and provides instant mobile access.

1. Analog HD vs IP Network Cameras

  • **Analog HD (CP-PLUS / Frontech 2MP & 5MP):** Cost-effective, reliable coaxial cabling, ideal for retail counters, grocery stores, and 1-2 room offices.
  • **IP PoE Cameras (Cat6 Structured Cabling):** Ultra high-definition, crystal-clear digital zoom, wide dynamic range (WDR), ideal for multi-storey showrooms, godowns, and outdoor perimeter security.
  • 2. Full-Color Night Vision vs Traditional Infrared

    Traditional IR cameras switch to grainy black and white footage when the lights turn off. Modern **Full-Color LED cameras** use warm auxiliary lighting to record vibrant, full-color HD video even in pitch darkness, allowing accurate identification of clothing color and vehicle details.

    3. Storage Calculation & Surveillance Hard Disks

    Standard desktop PC hard drives fail quickly in CCTV DVRs. We exclusively use **Seagate SkyHawk and WD Purple surveillance hard disks** built for 24/7 continuous write cycles:

  • 4 Cameras @ 2MP with H.265 compression: 1TB gives approximately 15-20 days continuous recording.
  • 8 Cameras @ 5MP: 2TB to 4TB recommended for 30 days retention.
  • 4. Remote Live View on Your Android & iPhone

    Every CCTV package installed by Lapiez includes complete mobile app setup so you can watch live video, playback footage, and receive motion alerts on your smartphone anywhere in the world.
