Demand CAT6 Ethernet cables for new installs. Older systems use coaxial cables. Coaxial has a 100-meter limit. CAT6 goes up to 100 meters before signal drops. Ask if they will run cables inside walls or outside. Outdoor cables need UV protection. Sunlight degrades unprotected plastic. Check the cable jacket thickness for weather resistance.
Outdoor cameras need IP66 or IP67 ratings for dust and water resistance. Lower ratings fail during heavy rain. Check cable entry points for proper sealing. Moisture ingress causes internal corrosion and eventual failure. Ask if the installer uses waterproof junction boxes. These protect connection points from element exposure, significantly extending the lifespan of your equipment.
Mount cameras 2.5 to 3 meters high. This prevents tampering. Aim them slightly downward. Angles too high show only back of heads. Angles too low show too much ground. Ask the installer to point the lens at the target area. Avoid pointing directly at bright lights. Glare ruins the image sensor. Adjust angles during the final walkthrough.
Blackouts disable your entire security system. Ask if the recorder includes a battery backup. Without it, recording stops immediately. Some systems lose configuration data too. Inquire about Uninterruptible Power Supply units. These keep the recorder running for several hours. This ensures continuous recording during grid failures, which often coincide with attempted break-ins when lights are off.
Ask for minimum 2 MP resolution for clear facial recognition. Lower resolutions blur details at night. Inquire about lens focal length. Wide-angle lenses suit doorways, while narrow lenses monitor long driveways. Wrong lenses capture too much background noise. Verify each camera model before finalizing the quote to ensure adequate detail capture.
Ask if cameras use Power over Ethernet. This sends data and power through one cable. It simplifies installation. Standalone cameras need separate power adapters. Adapters fail more often. They get hot in direct sun. PoE is generally more reliable for long-term use. Confirm the switch supports PoE standards. Not all switches do.
PoE simplifies installation by sending data and power through one cable. It reduces wiring complexity and cost. Verify if your switch supports PoE standards. Passive PoE injectors can cause voltage mismatches. Compatible equipment ensures stable operation. Ask if the system uses active PoE switches for future scalability. This prevents power delivery issues when adding new devices.
Ask for written warranties on parts and labor. Standard part warranties last 1 to 2 years. Labor warranties vary by provider. Keep all paperwork. Ask for the support phone number. Test their responsiveness during the quote phase. If they are slow now, they will be slow later. Ensure they have local techs for quick visits.
Small systems take 1 to 2 days. Larger setups require 3 to 5 days. Ask for a specific start date. Delays often come from cable path approvals. Confirm if drilling is included. Exterior work depends on weather. Get the schedule in writing. Clear timelines prevent indefinite waiting. Ask what happens if access is blocked, so you understand responsibility for potential project extensions.
Standard Ethernet cables max out around 100 meters before signal drops. Longer runs require active extenders or fiber optics. Ask your installer if your property exceeds this limit. Excess length causes intermittent connection losses and frame drops during live viewing. Request a site survey to measure exact distances from the recorder to each planned camera location first.
