Monitoring Security

Security monitoring is a continual, automated process involving collecting and analysing potential security threats, and actioning these threats with a programmed response. 

Security monitoring systems are suited for a range of applications, including both residential and commercial settings, and are designed to provide the user with increased protection, better surveillance, and remote monitoring. 

A DC power system has the potential to power a range of componentry involved in a security system, including security & CCTV cameras, modems, video recorders, Wi-Fi access points and bridges, backup systems, and two-way radio communications. 

DC and off-grid power are being increasingly used to power security and surveillance monitoring systems as they will provide installers with a range of benefits including:

• Reduced costs as remote visits will be required less often 
• Receiving quick notifications to act to eliminate power interruptions at a site 
• Facilitating troubleshooting remotely 
• Programming custom settings off-site 
• Updating firmware remotely 

Using off-grid energy is an ideal solution for security monitoring, as DC power will provide your devices with an uninterruptable power supply and continuous monitoring, which will provide peace of mind to you and your customers.
