A security camera needs to be used to monitor your surroundings. Typically, security cameras are categorized with the following types: box cameras, dome cameras, bullet cameras, and spy cameras. Resolutions typically start from 420 TV lines to up to 620 TV lines.

Next, you need to record your security footage. To do that, you'll need a DVR surveillance system. DVR surveillance systems consist of 4, 8, and 16 channels, allowing you to plug in several security cameras at a time to simultaneously record. A DVR surveillance system will consists of standalone and computer based options. Standalone systems are already fixed to a certain number of channels and will typically allow up to 2 hard drives to be installed. The benefit of this type of system is that it's inexpensive. The drawback with this system is that you can't expand. If you need to expand, you might consider buying a computer based DVR system. These DVR systems use surveillance cards that install onto a motherboard giving maximum expandability.

To view your security footage, a security monitor is used to hook up to your DVR. Security monitors will usually have BNC or VGA connections. For a more organized setup, the use of rackmount monitors can be used. Typically, a rackmount monitor will have 2, 3, and 4 monitors embedded onto 1 rackmount.

To extend your security camera setup, a video balun can be used. These convert coaxial signals to UTP cable, extending runs for your security camera setup from 1000 - 6000 feet.

How do you power your security cameras? To do that, power distributon boxes are used, allowing several cameras to be plugged in to charge.

If you're wary of strangers at your front door step, consider getting a video door phone. Video door phones allow you to see and hear who is at the door without opening the door.
