- UPS Uninterruptible Power — battery backup (12V 7Ah-17Ah), automatic switching 10ms, 2-8 hours autonomy, protection from power outages.
- Guard Tour Systems — RFID patrol control, chip reading, GPS coordinates, reports, ideal for security companies.
- Cables — RG59 coaxial (for HD analog cameras, 300m), Cat5e/Cat6 (for IP cameras, PoE, 100m), balanced cable (audio, alarms).
- Connectors — BNC (twist-on, crimp, coaxial), DC (5.5x2.1mm, power cable), RJ45 (Cat5e/Cat6, network).
- Tools — crimpers (BNC, RJ45), cable testers (continuity, PoE), multimeters, drills.
FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions
Amperage selection depends on camera count and type. Standard 12V DC consumption: HD analog camera 0.3-0.5A (IR LED on), IP camera 0.4-0.8A (without PoE), PTZ camera 1-2A. Calculation: total consumption × 1.3 reserve. Example: 4 HD cameras × 0.5A = 2A × 1.3 = 2.6A → pick a 3A or 5A supply. 8-camera system → 5-10A, 16+ cameras → separate power supply per 4-8 cameras (better stability, failure isolation). Additional factors: cable length (long cable → voltage drop → choose higher amperage or 24V system), outdoor cameras (IR LED consumes more in winter), protections — overload (OCP), short circuit (SCP), undervoltage (UVP), overheat (OTP).
A UPS ensures uninterrupted operation of security systems during power outages — critical for cameras, alarms, access control, and NVR/DVR. Power loss can be intentional (burglar cuts the main cable in advance) or accidental (storm, grid issue) — in both cases without a UPS the system stops recording exactly when it's needed most. UPS components: 12V 7Ah battery — 2-4 hours autonomy for 4-8 cameras (small site, apartment, small shop), 12V 17Ah battery — 6-12 hours for 8-16 cameras (medium/large site, office, warehouse), automatic switching <10ms (cameras don't reboot), LED indicator (battery level), overcharge protection, thermal protection. Recommendation: alarm panel → 7Ah is enough, CCTV 4-8 cameras → 7Ah, CCTV 8-16 cameras → 17Ah, high-risk site → 24Ah+ or dedicated diesel generator.
RG59 and Cat5e/Cat6 are different cable types for different video surveillance systems. RG59 coaxial cable (75Ω): for HD analog cameras (HD-TVI, HD-CVI, AHD, CVBS), video signal transmitted over coax via BNC connector, power runs on a separate cable (2×0.75mm² or 2×1mm²), maximum distance 300m (HD quality), cheap, easy installation with crimp/twist-on connectors. Cat5e/Cat6 network cable: for IP cameras, video signal + power in one cable (PoE — Power over Ethernet), 4 pairs (8 cores), maximum PoE distance 100m (30W Gigabit), supports 4K/8K IP cameras, better quality. Recommendation: new build → Cat6 (future-proof, PoE, 4K), upgrade of existing analog → keep RG59 and swap cameras to HD. Cable conversion: BNC-to-RJ45 balun adapter lets you run Cat6 with HD analog cameras, or conversely RG59 with IP signal (no need to pull new Cat6).
