Keeping your home or commercial
premises secure at all times is essential. Samsung has designed a variety of
high-tech security systems meant to be used in both commercial and domestic
applications. Before you go out and purchase a Samsung security system, it is important that you familiarize
yourself with some important factors.
Read on below to find out some of the
main considerations to keep in mind when shopping for a Samsung security system.
Channels
When purchasing a Samsung security system, it is important for you to have an idea of
the number of cameras it can support. Each security system comes with a given
number of cameras; you can add more cameras where possible. However, it is
worth noting that the number of channels supported on a DVR device limits the
number of cameras that you can link to it. DVR security camera configurations
come in four, eight, nine, sixteen and thirty-two channels. Since you cannot
add more channels to a configuration, it is best for you to purchase a system that
can support all the cameras you need, not only now but also in the foreseeable
future.
Compatibility
Before buying any security system, it
is important to think about how compatible it is with other technologies and
accessories. It is recommended that you look for a system that is compatible
with a variety of viewing and control devices including visual display units
and smartphones. Furthermore, the system should support the use of accessories
including cameras from different manufacturers. Note that the Samsung security
system is
designed to be compatible with PTZ cameras; while viewing on a variety of
mobile devices and computers is also supported.
Frames
per Second (FPS)
Before buying a Samsung security system, it is important for you to first consider
the supported frames per second. This affects whether the system can be able to
record motion video or still images/frames. A DVR system that is able to record
60 frames per second, designed to support four channels will deliver standard
motion video where two cameras are connected; each feed getting 30 FPS. However,
where four cameras are used, each feed gets 15 FPS; which does not support
motion video. Be sure to choose a Samsung
security system with the FPS needed to support the number of cameras to be
used in mind.
Storage
The storage device in use is a vital part
of a security camera system. Although storage space is not as expensive, it is
important to ensure that you have all the space you need, at present, in the Samsung security system you choose. Furthermore,
remember that the video compression technology used to store the video has an
effect on how quick the storage space will be exhausted.
With the above factors in mind, you
will have a better chance of choosing the most suitable Samsung security system for the intended application.
