Why is it important to have a video surveillance system?

The safety of people, especially in Mexico, is a priority for the authorities and society as a whole, whether in homes, businesses, corporate buildings or public spaces. 

BY SECURITY SALES

So far in 2016 alone, according to figures from the Ministry of the Interior (SEGOB), about 98,000 robberies have been reported in the country to homes, shops and banks, in addition to 200,000 vehicle thefts and more than 40,000 robberies of passers-by. These figures place Mexico among the most violent countries in Latin America. 

The large number of incidents registered in our country means that sometimes the authorities are overwhelmed, since it is practically impossible to attend to all the complaints received. The simple fact of making a report is very complicated, because thieves are increasingly efficient and apply techniques that allow them not to be recognized by their victims.

That is why video surveillance systems and the capacity for prevention and connectivity they provide are fundamental, becoming a key piece within any security system, whether it is a home, building and business.

How do they work?

In our country and in the world, there are various security systems to protect the different spaces in which we live day by day: from doors with very complex systems to guarantee access only to the indicated people, to barbed wire, motion detectors or even alarms.

For example, if a house has an adequate surveillance system, it can detect unusual activity and inform the owners of any movement that occurs allowing it to alert the authorities, which will allow a faster reaction, facilitating the recognition of criminals. 

Thinking about it, Honeywell has launched its line of Performance and equIP® cameras, aimed at a wide number of industries and users, adjusting to all types of pockets and budgets without neglecting the cutting-edge technology and quality that distinguishes its products, thus becoming the best option for all those who seek to safeguard the integrity of the various environments in which they carry out their daily activities.  

How to choose the best security system?

The big difference between an efficient video surveillance system and another type of security system depends on the typology of the needs of the users.

There are high-quality cameras that are easy to install and maintain, such as those of the Ip Performance Series, which include seven IP cameras from 1.3 to 3 megapixels in different designs: dome, ball and bullet, which makes them ideal solutions for homes, offices, retail stores and warehouses.

In addition, these types of cameras use "Motorized Focal Zoom" technology, which automatically focuses after zooming, allowing the installer to fine-tune the camera and the field of view after placement. It allows you to capture sharp images with high-resolution details and offer a correct relationship between the object and the surroundings to avoid distortion on the screen.


Another advantage of this series is that its installation and connection is very simple (Plug & Play) which makes them an extremely user-friendly device, adjusting to the DIY ("do it yourself" or "do it yourself") approach characteristic of Honeywell products. 

These cameras also allow that in low light environments the images have excellent quality, without having to be large, thanks to the compression of video data, which allows a more durable storage and less need to handle the equipment for users.

Another option is the equIP® Series system, aimed at more specialized sectors, which has as its main feature its ability to take videos in low-light environments, allowing a more intuitive user experience and a faster installation process.  

This type of system includes cameras in resolutions of 4 megapixels (4MP), 1080p and 1080 "ultra low-light", which have a wide dynamic range, which offers more accurate video captures, high contrast lighting, backlit scenes and edge enhancement to provide greater sharpness in the image, providing a Full HD resolution.

These new additions to Honeywell's video technology portfolio are designed to improve the use of the equipment, simplify its installation for professionals in the security industry and provide better quality video for the best protection of facilities.

More technology

Within this line of "rough use" is included the line of HDZ cameras, equipped with a vandal-proof housing and capable of providing high-quality images even in low-light situations, which makes the recognition of any intruder in an installation much more efficient.

Both the equIP® and HDZ cameras and the MAXPRO® NVR are integrated into Honeywell's product portfolio and ONVIF S compatible products to offer a complete and fully integrated video surveillance over IP solution. And not only this, the status monitor in MAXPRO® NVR allows users to more easily check the status of their system.

One of the great advantages offered by Honeywell is that its equipment is compatible with ONVIF Profile S and G systems, and integrates with both Honeywell NVRs (including MAXPRO®, HUS, DVM and Performance Embedded) and with security systems of other brands, which helps reduce installation and integration costs.

They are adaptable to all types of environments, which makes them the best option both for installers, who are allowed to offer integral solutions, and for the end user, who will be 100% protected all the time.  

Despite the existence of many options on the market, the user will make the final decision according to their needs, spaces and budgets.
