What is an Analog Security Camera System?

An Analog Security Camera System is a traditional surveillance solution that utilizes Analog Cameras (also sometimes known as CVI Cameras) connected to a Digital Video Recorder (DVR). These cameras capture raw analog video signals, which are transmitted via BNC Cables to the DVR for digitization and storage. Analog systems are generally more affordable than IP-based systems, making them a popular choice for small businesses and homeowners.

 

How are Analog Cameras Installed?

Analog Security Cameras are installed using RG59 Siamese BNC Coaxial Cables. These cables are designed to carry both power and video signals to the camera, simplifying the installation process. Each camera needs to be plugged in, but thanks to the coaxial cables, they can be plugged in close by to the DVR and not near the camera itself.

Reliable 24/7 Surveillance

Lorex Analog Security Systems offer a reliable and cost-effective solution for your security needs. With their wired connections, these systems ensure a stable and uninterrupted video feed, providing 24/7 surveillance of your property. The Digital Video Recorder (DVR) at the heart of these systems utilizes large-capacity Surveillance-Grade Hard Drives to store extensive video footage, ensuring you have a comprehensive record of events.

 

Analog, IP, or Battery-Operated Systems?

Both Analog (DVR) and IP (NVR) systems provide 24/7 recording, while Battery-Operated Systems use Battery-Operated Security Cameras that wirelessly transmit motion events. Analog Systems are a more budget-friendly solution, using traditional technology. IP (NVR) Security Systems are generally considered more advanced, with higher resolutions and more advanced features. They are also considered more future-ready, as IP cameras are considered "smart" since they contain their own processing unit, which allows them to be updated with new firmware to enhance features and security.

 

What is a Fusion Collection DVR System?

The Lorex Fusion Collection is a set of Security Recorders and Wireless Cameras united by the Lorex app. A Lorex Fusion DVR system offers unparalleled flexibility and versatility as the Fusion DVR can seamlessly integrate both wired analog and wireless cameras (including Wireless (Wi-Fi) Cameras, Doorbell Cameras, and Floodlights) and record them all 24/7! With a single Fusion DVR, you can create a comprehensive Security Camera System that meets your specific needs, whether you prefer the reliability of wired cameras or the convenience of wireless cameras.

 

Understanding DVR Channels: A Quick Guide

A DVR's channel capacity determines the maximum number of cameras it can simultaneously record. For instance, an 8-channel DVR can connect to and record from eight cameras. Lorex Fusion DVRs offer flexibility, allowing you to combine wired and wireless cameras within the same system. For example, a Fusion DVR with 16 channels might allocate 8 channels for wired cameras and 8 channels for wireless cameras.
