Wireless Video Transmitter – Receiver For Video Security Cameras

M&J — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 21:52:02 +0000

When you can’t run video cable from your cameras to your digital video recorder why not use a wireless video transmitter/receiver? When installing a video security camera system sometimes you will have to span a driveway, parking lot or view a front gate down the hill from your house. So instead of trenching or concrete cutting, a wireless video transmitter and receiver takes the place of cable to send the video signal from the camera to your DVR and monitor. Wireless video transmitters and receivers, with line of sight, can transmit up to 1000′. Call M&J Video and we will design your video security camera system using video cable or wireless transmitters/receivers when needed. M&J Video has done video security camera installations with wireless video transmitters and receivers all over Southern California including Chatsworth , Northridge , Mission Hills , Granada Hills , Canoga Park , Valencia and Santa Clarita. Call M&J Video for a free quote and we will tell you all about VIDEO TRANSMITTERS AND RECEIVERS!

Choosing The Proper CCTV Lens Can Be Crucial

M&J — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:15:40 +0000

When buying a video security camera system it is very important to choose the right CCTV lens. The focal length of the camera lens should be one of the first things you consider. The lens can cover areas from 90 degrees,to view wide areas, all the way down to 15 degrees to read license plate. People often make the mistake of using one CCTV camera to cover a large area such as a parking lot. But to see real detail you need to use multiple security cameras with a mixture of wide and tight angle CCTV lens.
With a vari-focal lens the focal length can be adjusted and locked in to give you the proper view of your property. CCTV cameras mounted over a door should have a tighter lens to identify people, while cameras mounted in a room should have a wider CCTV lens for general viewing. Call M&J Video for a free security camera quote.M&J Video will take the guess work out of your security camera installation.We sell and install infrared CCTV cameras,DVR’s, monitors and our security camera installations are clean and professional.
