Frequently Asked Questions
What are the differences between wired
and wireless systems?
Does a wireless system require power?
How far can wireless video and audio
be transmitted?
A
wired system
has a video cable that transmits
the video signal from the camera to a recording or
viewing device.
A wireless system does not use a video cable.
Instead, it wirelessly transmits the video signal to a
wireless receiver that is connected to your recording
or viewing device. Wireless systems do not require
cabling to be run between the camera and the viewing
/ recording device, which reduces installation time
and cost.
Yes. A typical wireless system requires two power
sources: one connected to the camera, and the other to
the receiver. The digital wireless converter requires a
third power source for the transmitter.
The signal range varies depending on the type of
building materials and/or objects the wireless signal
must pass through.
Cubical walls, drywall, glass, and windows generally
do not degrade wireless signal strength. Brick,
concrete floors, and walls degrade signal strength.
Trees that are in the line of sight of the wireless camera
and receiver may impact signal strength.
The signal range also depends on whether there are
competing signals using the same frequency as the
camera. For example, signals from cordless phones or
routers may affect signal strength.
