Closed Circuit Television or CCTV Surveillance systems are TV systems that are installed and monitored for security and surveillance purposes, in which signals are publicly distributed. Normally, you will see this in place in some establishments and offices. Despite this is an old technology that has been around for years, there have been significant advancements in CCTV displays over time.
Unlike old Closed Circuit TV systems that had low resolution and small black & white monitors without any interactive capabilities, the modern-day CCTVs are colored, have high-resolution displays, and loaded with outstanding features that help ensure top-notch security of the premises. Some CCTV systems feature the zoom in facility. This means you can zoom in on the image or video, track any mysterious activity on the screen and take action immediately, which otherwise may be difficult to observe on old and black & white display screens.
CCTV Security Camera Types
CCTV Surveillance System comes in different styles. However, the most common and popular ones are dome, infrared, c-mount, and bullet.
Bullet CCTV Security System

That 6mm lens is excellent to view facial features.
Infrared CCTV Security System
For security during at night, infrared CCTV security systems are a better option as compared to bullet CCTVs. This is because infrared CCTVs allow images and videos to be seen in areas with little or practically no lighting. They can be installed either inside or outside of business premises. They have a built-in infrared LED lighting that is installed on the outer edge of the camera’s lens. With that feature, it allows users to see everything clearly in the dark. And this is exactly why the infrared systems are popularly considered as Night Vision CCTV systems.
