| Cabling | Cat6 + PoE (single cable) | Coax + separate power |
| Analytics / AI | Yes — onboard & VMS | Limited |
| Remote viewing | Native app & cloud | Via DVR app |
| Scalability | Easily scales, multi-site | Best for small sites |
| Cost | Higher upfront, lower long-term | Lower upfront |

Frequently asked questions
IP vs analog — which is better?
IP cameras give much higher resolution (4K and beyond), built-in analytics (AI, ANPR, line-crossing) and run over a single network cable, making them the choice for most new systems; analog HD-over-coax is budget-friendly for reusing existing cabling. See our Analog CCTV page.
Can I add AI later?
Yes — IP systems are AI-ready, so you can add facial recognition, ANPR, people-counting or smart-search analytics later on compatible cameras or the recorder/VMS, without replacing the whole system.
Is remote viewing included?
Yes — secure live and playback access from phone, tablet and desktop is set up as standard, with role-based users and multi-site views, so authorised people can check any camera from anywhere.
Is SIRA approval handled for me?
Yes — we design to SIRA (Dubai) and ADMCC (Abu Dhabi) standards and manage the approval process where required.
How long is CCTV footage stored?
By default we configure a minimum of 31 days of footage retention in line with SIRA requirements, and size storage to your site category and how long you need recordings kept. Longer retention is available where regulations or your own policy require it.
Can I watch the cameras on my phone?
Yes. We set up secure live and playback viewing from your phone, tablet and desktop, with multi-site access and optional cloud recording — so you can check any camera from anywhere, with role-based access for your team.
