P&O Global Technologies, Inc wireless security camera systems use an encrypted wireless protocol to limit access to wireless networks and communications so that your wireless signals remain private and secure.


> How much video and or recording time can I get with your security cameras and equipment?

It depends on what type of equipment you have. Many things can impact the amount of video that can be stored.  What memory capability your DVR has, how many security cameras you have, the resolution you use, which all translates into heavier data. The more cameras you have, the more data you’ll get too. You can increase your recording time by following these recommendations:

  1. Add more Hard Drive space.
  2. Use Motion Activated recording only.
  3. Reduce the number of frames per second each camera is recording.
  4. Reduce the recording Resolution.

> Can outdoor cameras be used indoors or vice versa?

Outdoor cameras can be used indoors, but indoor cameras cannot be used outdoors. Dome cameras should not be used outdoors unless completely protected from the elements. Some outdoor cameras are also not designed to be used indoors, where you want as much privacy as possible, so it is always recommendable to use indoor cameras that are more discreet.

Provided that your system is CCTV ready, it should work. Our hardware works with most CCTV equipment but we do not guarantee that it will work with every system. Our professional team will assess your system and quote you on the best custom plan for your needs.

All security cameras can be powered with plug-in power supplies on a power supply next to your recorder. We also offer multi-camera power supply that can be mounted in a central location with power wires (two conductors/twisted) running to each camera.
