There are certain applications for surveillance and security where a “standard” Digital Video Recorder or DVR is just too large. For these applications the best choice is a micro DVR. Micro DVRs can be so small as to fit inside the casing of an ink pen. Let’s take a look at a digital video system that uses standard size DVRs first, and then take a look at micro DVRs.
A standard DVR is about the size of DVD player. The front of the DVR has buttons and switches to control the actions of the DVR. The back of the DVR is where all the connections are made to cameras and other items.

Sometimes cameras need to be placed in areas where wiring would obviously give away the fact that the camera is hidden. When this is the case a 2.4 Ghz wireless hidden camera is the perfect solution for the job.
Unless a camera has its own “on-board” Digital Video Recorder or DVR, it will need a video transmission cable, commonly RG59. However a 2.4 Ghz wireless hidden camera can eliminate the need for cables by sending the video transmission signal via radio waves.
It sends the radio waves using an on-board transmitter and antenna that use the 2.4 Ghz technology. This is the same technology that is often used by many land-line based wireless telephones.

A Closed Circuit TeleVision or CCTV alarm system for the home provides the user with the best of both worlds. Video monitoring and recording for documentation purposes and alarm notification that something is wrong.
There are basically three ways of achieving success with a CCTV alarm system. First most upper end Digital Video Recorders or DVRs have connections for contact points on alarm system. They also have output connections for lights or sirens, etc.
Another way of using a CCTV alarm system is to set your camera system up so that it alerts you under designated conditions. All of our DVRs have the ability to send the user an e-mail as an alert notifications provided the DVR has access to broadband Internet service.
