Explore Products, Tips, and Insights for Optimal Home and Business Protection
What’s the best way to monitor my home when I’mtraveling?
Use an IP camera system with mobile app access. Our cameras support live remote viewing, motion-triggered alerts, and even two-way audio, perfect for checking in while away.
Do I need cloud storage for my security system?
Not always. Many of our cameras support local SD card storage or NVR systems. Cloud options are great for off-site backups or if you want access to historical footage from anywhere.
What’s the difference between night vision andcolor night vision?
Standard IR night vision gives black-and-white images, while color night vision uses low-light sensors to deliver full-color video in dark environments. We carry both types,
depending on your needs.
Can your cameras detect people or just motion?
Select models include AI-powered person detection, which reduces false alerts from wind, shadows, or animals. Look for this feature in our IP camera listings.
What types of security products do you offer for homes and businesses?
Our security product range includes indoor and outdoor security cameras, motion detectors, door and window sensors, and complete security systems. We offer solutions for both residential and commercial properties, ensuring the safety and protection of your assets.
How do I choose the right security camera for my needs?
To choose the right security camera, consider factors such as your property size, indoor/outdoor usage, desired camera features (e.g., night vision, motion detection), and your budget.
Can I monitor my security cameras remotely?
Yes, most of our security cameras offer remote monitoring through a smartphone app or web interface. This allows you to view live footage and receive notifications for any detected motion or unusual activity.
What is the difference between wired and wireless security cameras?
Wired security cameras require a physical connection to transmit video and power, while wireless cameras use Wi-Fi to transmit video and may either have a battery or require a power source. Wired cameras are generally more reliable and offer higher video quality, but wireless cameras provide more flexibility in terms of installation and placement.
What is the difference between DVR and NVR security systems?
DVR (Digital Video Recorder) and NVR (Network Video Recorder) systems are both used for recording and storing security camera footage. DVR systems work with analog cameras and use coaxial cables for video transmission, while NVR systems work with IP cameras and use Ethernet cables or Wi-Fi for video transmission. NVR systems generally offer higher video resolution and more advanced features compared to DVR systems.
How can I improve the night vision of my security cameras?
To enhance the night vision capabilities of your security cameras, ensure that they have high-quality infrared (IR) LEDs and a wide dynamic range (WDR) feature. Additionally, consider using cameras with higher resolutions and better low-light performance. Placing the cameras in well-lit areas or adding external IR illuminators can also help improve night vision.
How much storage space do I need for my security camera system?
The amount of storage space required for your security camera system depends on factors such as the number of cameras, video resolution, frame rate, and the duration of footage you want to store. Higher-resolution cameras and longer storage durations will require more storage space. You can estimate your storage needs using an online storage calculator, or consult our customer support team for recommendations.

How do I wire speakers across multiple rooms?
Use a multi-zone amplifier and run speaker wires through walls or ceilings. We offer amps with zone controls, or wireless systems like Sonos for easy expansion.

#4. Home Networking FAQs
Your Essential Guide to a Connected Home
What’s the difference between access points and extenders?
Access points create new Wi-Fi zones using wired Ethernet, offering stable high-speed coverage. Extenders rebroadcast your existing signal, which can cut speed in
half. For businesses or larger homes, access points are the better long-term option.
Can I isolate security cameras on a separate network?
Yes. We recommend setting up a VLAN (Virtual LAN) for IoT and security devices. Many of our routers and switches support VLANs for increased privacy and protection.
Do mesh Wi-Fi systems work with PoE switches?
Yes, but only for powering access points, not mesh nodes directly. You can mix mesh with PoE-powered access points for a hybrid network. We can help you choose the right combination.
How do I avoid interference between my smart devices and Wi-Fi?
Use dual-band or tri-band routers to separate devices. Put smart home gadgets on 2.4 GHz and heavy-use devices (streaming, gaming) on 5 GHz. Upgrade to a mesh system if coverage is weak.
What networking solutions do you provide for homes and businesses?
Our networking product lineup includes mesh solutions, Wi-Fi routers, network switches, and access points to help you establish a reliable and stable internet connection. We cater to the needs of both residential and commercial customers, providing products that ensure strong network coverage and performance.
What is the difference between a Wi-Fi router and a mesh network?
A Wi-Fi router is a single device that broadcasts a Wi-Fi signal within a limited range, while a mesh network consists of multiple interconnected devices that work together to provide seamless and extended Wi-Fi coverage. Mesh networks are ideal for larger homes or businesses where a single router may not provide sufficient coverage.
How can I improve my Wi-Fi signal strength and coverage?
To enhance your Wi-Fi signal strength and coverage, consider upgrading to a mesh network or using Wi-Fi extenders. Additionally, positioning your router in a central location, away from electronic devices that may cause interference, can help improve signal quality.
How can I extend the range of my Wi-Fi network?
You can extend the range of your Wi-Fi network by using a mesh system or Wi-Fi extenders. Mesh systems consist of multiple devices working together to provide seamless and extended Wi-Fi coverage, while Wi-Fi extenders help amplify the signal from your existing router.
