Accessing the Video Data You will have two main options to access the video data: Browser Access: You can access the system through any web browser using the internet. We'll help set this up on your devices and ensure it’s as simple as clicking a favorite link in your browser, which will take you directly to the system. You’ll just need to enter your username and password for security purposes. Mobile App Access: You can also access the system via an app, which is available in the App Store. We'll assist with the installation and setup on your mobile devices, making it easy for you to view and manage footage on the go. Video Storage and Retention The video retention time with an 8TB hard drive will vary based on several factors: Recording Type: Whether you opt for motion-based recording (footage only saved when motion is detected) or continuous recording (footage saved 24/7). Camera Resolution: Higher resolution footage (8 MP in your case) takes up more storage space. Storage Capacity: Your current setup includes an 8TB hard drive, but this can be increased if needed. Given the setup with 8 MP cameras and an 8TB hard drive: Motion-based recording could give you anywhere from two weeks to a month of footage. Continuous recording at full resolution will reduce this retention period, but it is also dependent on the camera settings and level of activity. If you'd like a more precise estimate, we can fine-tune the settings based on your specific needs and conditions. The storage is automatically managed, meaning older footage is overwritten once the hard drive is full.

We don't outright recommend that you get a high-end camera system for your business security and surveillance needs before considering all your options.

Yes. A solid internet connection is all you will need to provide we will do the rest.

Yes, we recommend installation of dummy cameras in strategic in addition of your surveillance system. We often recommend installing a dummy camera in the area where theft may take place.

We usually recommend one camera for every 500 square feet of area. Thus, the number of cameras that you will need will depend on the size and layout of your premises that you wish to be outfitted with a surveillance system.

Yes. All of our DVR systems are internet-enabled thus allowing you to view live and recorded video anytime, anywhere as long as you have access to the internet (basic DSL or cable).

Internet-enabled security DVR systems allow many users to have access to a specific site at a specific time. However, the more people looking at the same security system at the same time, the slower it will be because the bandwidth will be shared between the all the viewers. For this we provide broadcasting options.

Yes, there are some DVRs that are fitted with this option.

A special camera called the Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera can allow zooming in. We have a vast selection of PTZ cameras on our list to fit your budget. Most Dvr software also allows digital zoom however the quality depends on the camera in this case.

To ensure that your security DVR works even during a power outage, we suggest that you get an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) for your back-up power.

Good question. Both cameras have the same capabilities. Both have the same night vision and B/W features. Both cameras by default will change to black and white mode and the Infrared lights enable visibility in total darkness. Once the camera has sufficient lighting it will return to color mode. This feature can be turned on and off manually. The cameras are equipped with a low light sensor, so in most cases we switch this to color mode. It's not that rare to use night vision for its a necessity in some situations.

Yes, we can do that for you. Typically when someone is given a monthly fee with Standard Technology Group it is for one of the following reasons. One reason could be our leasing option instead of paying in full for a surveillance system at completion. Two would be to have cameras monitored by our central monitoring station as a visual alarm. Three could be surveillance equipment rentals. And last maybe our service membership that many of our customers are taking advantage of. However it sounds like you are looking for general equipment pricing. Make sure you elaborate to you sales person on the type of price you would like Standard Technology Group to provide for you.
