Selecting the right CCTV surveillance system is one of the most critical decisions for securing commercial properties, warehouses, and homes in Kenya.
### IP Cameras vs. Analog Systems
- **Resolution**: IP cameras deliver 4K Ultra HD clarity (4MP–8MP), whereas traditional coaxial analog cameras max out at lower fidelity.
- **Artificial Intelligence**: Modern Hikvision & Dahua IP cameras feature AcuSense and ColorVu technologies, filtering false alarms caused by rain or animals and identifying human/vehicle targets specifically.
- **PoE Simplicity**: Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows video, audio, and electrical power to run through a single Cat6 cable.
