How does a Wireless Home Security System work?

It's important to remember that even wireless CCTV cameras will still need to be connected to a power supply in order to work. Wireless home security cameras send their video and audio to a receiver via wireless transmission, but they still need to be plugged into a power source to function. Alternatively, you can opt for battery-powered home security systems, but these cameras aren’t always ideal since the battery can drain quickly and leave you unprotected.

Frequently asked questions about wireless home security systems

Do wireless CCTV cameras need a power supply?

All CCTV cameras need a power supply to function, but they can either plug into a power source or rely on batteries. Although you may like the idea of having a completely wireless home security system, battery-powered CCTV cameras can be more of a nuisance as the batteries will drain quickly and need to be replaced regularly. With a wireless system that plugs into a power source, you won’t need to worry about checking the power or forgetting to add new batteries.

Is it better to have wired or wireless security cameras?

Wired security systems are sometimes preferable because they can produce higher-quality images. Plus, they won’t be affected by signal interruptions like wireless systems can be. However, despite these advantages, many homeowners opt for wireless systems instead due to their convenience and ease of installation. You can set up wireless home security cameras by yourself in just a few minutes, so there’s no need to hire a professional to hardwire the system into your home.

Do you need Wi-Fi for wireless home security cameras?

Not all wireless cameras rely on your Wi-Fi network. While these security cameras are common, you can also use our wireless home security systems on an LTE plan.
