Wireless Camera Info

Some people are quite dismayed by funny little lines showing up on their receivers from their wireless cameras. This does not denote faulty product, the lines you see are caused by noise interference, things like wireless routers, cordless telephones and even microwave can have some impact on the noise. Generally speaking it’s not too bad when you have a wireless dvr  and some decent wireless cameras, you can easily make out who just stole your bike for instance.  Do your best to place your wireless cameras away from other devices that may interfere with it. The technology is improving for sure.  Be careful of anything analogue (ie 900MHz) and possibly the 1.2 GHz spectrum as well as they can be more susceptible to greater noise levels and there range is quite often more limited. Most standard  wireless cameras now are 2.4 GHz and moving steadily in the 5.8 GHz spectrum.  This little blurb is only for informational purposes, just to let people know the lines are normal and wireless cameras are a great cost effective tool in crime prevention and safety for your family and belongings.

I took the above picture with one of our wireless CCD cameras, notice the lines. That’s what I’m talking about here.
