With security professionals increasingly adopting network and megapixel cameras, lighting specialists Raytec have released a new White Paper on the use of lighting with network cameras designed to fill a current knowledge gap in the industry.

Every camera needs light to see and network cameras are no different. The new paper provides installers with an understanding of the need for dedicated lighting to achieve high quality images at night, to reduce their bandwidth and storage requirements and to allow faster frame rates. Without addressing the need for lighting network cameras won't live up to their full potential; they will not be able to deliver the superior resolutions they are capable of, and may overload a system with the large amount of data they generate.

By providing the correct levels of illumination your network surveillance system can benefit from a number of advantages:

  • High Quality Night-Time Images
  • Save up to 90% on bandwidth usage
  • Save up to 90% on storage space
  • Allows Higher Frame Rates
  • Allow Video Analytics to Work

In addition to this white-paper, Raytec also supports installers of network cameras with a range of illuminators directly powered from PoE to make installation easier, quicker and more cost effective when only PoE is available. All Raytec energy efficient illuminators use SMT technology to deliver long life with lower running and maintenance costs compared to traditional lighting technology.
