You Can Trust Our Cable Guy with all your Video Surveillance Solutions in Michigan

The Our Cable Guy team provides the best video surveillance solutions in Michigan. Ask us to review your site for a custom-tailored complete video surveillance package for you. We can assist you whether you buy your own camera systems or need expert help.

Our team are on standby to assist you in creating the most secure workplace while providing a complete review of your video surveillance opportunities:

  • What assets are you protecting?
  • Do you need to monitor factory floors?
  • Are there exits and entrances that your employees use or
    high volume retail areas?

Video End Equipment

  • Re-using older cameras? IP, Analog or HD-over Coax?
  • What type of DVR, NVR or VMS equipment/software would you like to us?
    Do you want access to the recording offsite or who can access it? Typically
    management only and most cases the Human Resources department skips
    over the managers in larger companies.

In Depth Thinking

  • Do you require certain areas recorded at certain times during the day?
  • What are you looking to see in that area? Person or animal?
  • How long do you need to keep the recordings on record?

 

As we are professionals in the field of commercial and residential video surveillance installations, we normally use warehouses to protect from outside vendors. 

The above questions can steer you towards what video surveillance solution would work for your location and needs. Our Cable Guy LLC, and their expert video surveillance Michigan branch team typically will run wiring for even pre-purchased cameras.  Higher end units for commercial CCTV solutions like FLIR, Hik Vision, etc. are usually suggested. 

Cameras Locations

  • What is the asset that you are attempting to protect? High value areas are recommended. 
  • The more cameras you have usually correlates to the storage you’ll need to have as well.  For example, if you have 2 cameras recording for 30 days then say perhaps 1 TB of storage is fine. If you add 10 more cameras then you will need to buy additional storage space or can only record for up to 5 days until you are out of space. When out of space the system can default to overwrite the past few days. This is a question we review and how long you need to keep the recordings.

Where are the actual locations you’d like to put the cameras? Inside or outside? What type of mount are required? What type of angles are you looking to capture?

Networking

  • How is the CCTV or the security solution going to be accessed? Typically most systems are on a different subnet of the existing network. Who is programming the system? VPN access for remote access?
  • Do you have the POE, Power Over Ethernet, switches in place or need them?
    Are you porting over analog older cameras? Is it coming from various
    locations?
  • Do you know how far away is the camera end location from the IDF or MDF?

We understand that some clients just think that video surveillance is plug-in and play. Yet some configuration is needed upon installation and we do offer tutoring onsite if purchased though our network cabling services team.

Did you know that Our Cable Guy experienced team members can provide you with a specified blueprint that can show you the line of sight for each camera? This allows anyone to have a clear picture of the type of coverage they are being provided in their requested areas.  We provide this free of charge, of course. 

Some More Video Surveillance Points To Consider

  • Camera Type: Certain look? Should the cameras to be used as a visual deterrent
    or just hidden?
  • Field of View: How large of a view or area do you need to capture or monitor?
    Do you need to see a license plate in a parking lot or the driver’s actual face?
  • Resolution of the Cameras: As above do you need to see actual faces? The
    higher the resolution or images means higher quality cameras and more
    storage space will be needed. The higher resolution cameras are more pixels
    so the CCTV devices will need more bandwidth and larger storage devices.
  • Lighting: Typically most clients are purchasing Day and Night cameras.
    However angles during the day or night may not be the best. Talk to us and
    gain our experience in various lighting situations.

Please call us, we can provide the expert help and right conservation to pick the best choice and a great budget. Call us anytime of day at 248-XXX-XXXX and ask to speak to our Security Violation Expert.
