Q: How does the professional CCTV installation process work?
A standard CCTV installation involves mapping optimal camera placement heights (typically 8 to 10 feet to avoid tampering), routing high-durability conduit pipes (PVC casing), wring either 3+1 coaxial or CAT6 cables, wring central power supplies (SMPS/PoE switch), and configuring the recording unit (DVR/NVR) with cloud network bindings for remote mobile view access.
Key Takeaways
- •Mount cameras at 8-10 feet high to keep them out of reach of intruders.
- •Route all indoor and outdoor cables inside PVC conduit casing to prevent rodent bites.
- •Connect recorders to online network routers via LAN cables for mobile app sync.
- •Validate hard disk status (active formatting) during handover testing.
Step 1: Placement & Structural Mapping
Before mounting, walk the site to identify blind spots. Focus on blind corners, entrance doors, garage bays, and dark alleys. Mount cameras pointing away from direct sunlight to avoid lens flare.
Step 2: Cabling & Conduit Routing
Route cables along walls inside PVC conduit pipes to protect copper lines from rains and heat. Secure conduits using steel hooks or casing nails.
Step 3: Camera Mounting & Termination
Fix dome or bullet mounts on solid walls. Connect wring channels using waterproof junction boxes to cover the BNC/RJ45 connectors from humidity.
