IP vs Analog Cameras
Advantages of the Analog Cameras
- Usually they are cheaper than Network (IP) cameras.
However, prices on IP cameras have been continuously
declining.
- There is more analog hardware available for the special
applications
- There is an abundance of existing analog installations.
- Security dealers and installers have a vast experience
installing analog cameras.
Advantages of the Network (IP) Cameras
- Existing local network infrastructure (CAT5 and WiFi)
could be used for the installation.
Comparably less cabling required than with an analog installation.
- Network cameras have built-in motion detectors and
compression engines, which enables the NVR Server to
use a minimum of its computer resources, therefore, the
same computer can also be used for other tasks.
- There are no requirements on CPU or chipset manufacturers,
since Network Cameras do not require any additional hardware
to be installed in to the computer.
- There are Network (IP) cameras with very high resolution
(1.3 Megapixels and more). Analog cameras are incapable
of achieving such resolution.
- Network (IP) camera installations are highly scaleable
and upgradeable. There is no need to buy and install
additional video capture boards for the NVR system in
the event you want to add a camera or increase performance
of the system.
- Any analog camera can be converted to a network camera
by using a Network (IP) server.
There is no geographical limitation for the installation.
- Effective offsite recording (either by itself or in
addition to onsite recording) eliminates the possibility
of destruction of the video medium due to deliberate
actions or an accident (fire, flooding, etc.).
- Some of the network cameras also can be used as a webcam
to serve as an advertising engine for a business.
