CCTV is the general umbrella term for all video surveillance. “IP” (Internet Protocol) represents the modern, digital standard of that technology. In Glasgow, many older systems are “Analog,” which sends video over thick coaxial cables. These are often limited in resolution and lack smart features.
IP Cameras, which are the standard for Safe AR Solutions, are essentially small, powerful computers. They use a single network cable (PoE) to transmit both power and high-speed digital data. This allows for significantly higher resolutions (like 4K), better color at night, and advanced AI features. For a homeowner in Renfrewshire or East Renfrewshire, an IP system is the only logical choice for a new installation because it is “future-proof,” easier to upgrade, and provides the best possible image quality for modern smartphone apps.
