What is the Difference between Analog Cameras and an IP Cameras?

These are the typical questions we have been asked about CCTV … like What type of security camera should I choose? Or which type of CCTV camera should I get for indoor? Wired or Wireless? etc. So, the best way we think you should do is to ask yourself this set of questions. Which type of Data transmission system do you want? That is Analog or Digital. Then where you want to install the camera? That is indoor or outdoor. And what additional or smart features do you want in your CCTV camera? Actually, these will be the same questions asked to you by our sales representative while purchasing a CCTV camera. You should be clear with this set of questions before buying any Online CCTV Camera in Dubai!

What is Analog Camera:
For the analog type, the camera is only a video capturing device data is transmitted over coaxial cable straight to DVR. DVR is the sort of video recorder which processes data and makes you able to watch a live mode from DDR. It also allows you to edit the full video over the network to any other network device… that is computer or smartphone! Also, analog cameras are kind of 1.2 or half times cheaper than IP digital cameras. Analog cameras are mandatory to have a DVR in pair with it. The advantage of having an Analog Camera is that if you are viewing it straight on DV, there will be no delay at all! Also, a coaxial cable length for Analog Cameras can reach up to 800m without any losses.

What is IP Network Camera:
For an IP Network camera, you don’t need separate devices like a DVR for the processing of the video. It can transmit videos to order network devices and also allows to save to recorded video in a Micro SD card. Network cameras take more time to process and decode captured video to digital files than Analog cameras. A huge advantage of IP Network type though is its wider range of smart functionality. That’s why IP cameras are expensive than Analog cameras. They are simply smarter! But the twisted cable used in the Dahua IP Camera can reach only up to 100m. The high-resolution camera can get you lower frames per second recording and also better image quality. 

Now if you are confused to buy one of these cameras then one simple question you should ask yourself that where do you want to fix your camera? If you want a wide transmission range you should go with Analog Camera and if your priority is having good video quality, you should buy IP Camera. Hope you have understood the basic difference between these two cameras. Also buying the best security camera depends on where you are buying it from!
