Do you want security in your home, but don't know which one is best for your home?
First it is important to know what is the difference between security alarms and CCTV.
Security alarms are a set of electronic devices that are placed at strategic points in a given place in order to protect.
All these devices are directly connected to a Control Centre or Monitoring Centre, which is responsible for immediately attending to the users of this system in case of intrusion or any situation that could put their integral well-being at risk.
Some of the security elements that make up this system are:
-Motion sensors.
-Strobe lighting.
-Sounders.
-Keypad.
-Magnetic contacts which detect when a window or door is opened.
-Panic buttons.

And a CCTV system?
A CCTV or Closed Circuit Television system is an installation of connected equipment that receives and transmits images that can be viewed simultaneously and in real time.
This system is mainly composed of:
-Security cameras.
-Camera lenses.
-Cabling.
-Accessories (Connectors, transceivers, protective casings, etc.)
-Voltage and backup sources (UPS)
-Recording Devices DVR, NVR Display Media (Local Monitor)

What is the main difference between the two?
The difference is that a security alarm does not offer continuous recording of the images, while the CCTV system does. However, both are capable of offering real-time monitoring of the systems. In addition, security alarms have more security elements that do not only focus on visual surveillance, just like a CCTV system does.
