Modern Video Surveillance Systems is a practical, easy-to-follow guide to understanding, planning, installing, and operating modern security camera systems.
Video surveillance today is much more than mounting a camera on a wall. A reliable system combines cameras, lenses, networking, PoE power, recording, storage, video analytics, remote access, cybersecurity, and proper installation into one complete security solution.
This book explains those technologies step by step, without assuming advanced networking or security experience. It is written for homeowners, beginners, installers, technicians, sales professionals, and anyone who wants to understand how modern IP video surveillance actually works.
You will learn how to:
Choose the right IP cameras, camera types, lenses, resolution, WDR, and night-vision technologyUnderstand PoE, IP addresses, switches, bandwidth, VLANs, and basic network designPlan Ethernet and outdoor cabling, fiber connections, and wireless point-to-point bridgesConfigure NVRs, recording schedules, storage, bitrates, H.264/H.265, SD cards, and RAID conceptsUnderstand motion detection, people and vehicle detection, AI video analytics, and alarm integrationWork with ONVIF and understand compatibility between cameras, NVRs, and different manufacturersSecure remote access and protect surveillance systems from common cybersecurity risksDesign camera positions for entrances, driveways, garages, backyards, and other residential areasDiagnose common problems such as offline cameras, poor night images, network issues, recording failures, and insufficient PoE powerUnderstand important U.S. privacy, audio recording, signage, and surveillance considerations
A complete four-camera home surveillance project brings the concepts together and shows how camera selection, placement, networking, PoE, recording, storage, remote access, and privacy considerations fit into a real-world system.
The book also includes practical explanations of focal length, field of view, DORI, low-light performance, infrared illumination, bandwidth calculations, storage calculations, weather protection, installation tools, surge protection, UPS systems, and troubleshooting.
Whether you want to install a security camera system at your own home, improve your technical knowledge, work with CCTV professionally, or simply understand what manufacturers and installers are talking about, this guide gives you the technical foundation you need.
A good surveillance system is not defined by the highest megapixel count. It is defined by whether the right camera can capture the right detail, at the right place, when it matters.
