What Are CCTV Security Systems?
CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) is a video surveillance system that captures, records and securely stores footage for authorised viewing only. A commercial-grade system typically includes cameras, recorders, storage devices and video management software for live and recorded monitoring. It’s used to deter crime, verify incidents, and provide valuable evidence when needed.
Why install CCTV?
CCTV acts as a strong deterrent and provides critical clarity during incidents. Many regions record noticeable reductions in local crime once CCTV coverage is introduced. In Alice Springs, cameras add a vital layer of protection for businesses, councils, and remote sites helping safeguard people, places and equipment.

Types of CCTV Systems and Which Fits You Best
Analogue cameras (older tech):
Use coax cabling. Affordable and simple, suitable for basic coverage or when re-using existing infrastructure.
IP-based cameras (newer tech):
Use Cat5/6/6A or secure Wi-Fi for higher resolution, remote access, analytics, motion detection, and night vision. Easier to scale, integrate and manage.
How to choose:
- Do you need to meet specific policies (e.g., NDAA compliance)?
- What incidents do you want to capture (theft, perimeter breach, OH&S)?
- Do you need higher image detail (plates/faces)?
- Will you verify alarms with video, or integrate with access control?
- Do you need remote monitoring or multi-site visibility?
We’ll assess your risks, layout and infrastructure, then recommend the system that meets your compliance, clarity and budget requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can cameras see in the dark?
Yes. Low-light sensors and infrared illumination provide usable vision at night.
Do cameras work without Wi-Fi?
Yes. They can record locally via NVRs or SD storage and be cabled for viewing.
Can security systems be hacked?
Standalone systems are less exposed. For cloud/Wi-Fi systems we implement hardening, strong credentials and updates.
Why is some CCTV footage poor quality?
Outdated cameras, incorrect settings, or inadequate lighting. We specify lenses/resolutions to match the scene.
Do cameras work without electricity?
They require power. We can integrate UPS/solar and electrical upgrades for resilience.
Is footage admissible as evidence?
Often, provided it’s obtained and retained in line with local laws and guidelines. We set up best-practice storage and audit trails.
Which cameras are best for homes, offices, warehouses, outdoors?
- Home/Office: Fixed IP cameras with analytics for clarity and smart alerts
- Warehouse: Mix of fixed IP and PTZ for wide-area tracking
- Outdoors: Low-light fixed and PTZ, selected to the scene and purpose
