When it comes to keeping your home or office safe, cameras are no longer a luxury they’re a must. But the question I hear most often is:

“Should I go for Wi-Fi cameras or stick with the old-school wired CCTV?”

Let’s break it down in plain language, no techy stuff.



🔹 Wi-Fi Cameras: Quick, Easy, and Flexible

Wi-Fi cameras are perfect if you don’t want a lot of drilling or messy wires. You can set them up in minutes, connect them to your phone, and you’re good to go. Want to move it to another corner? Easy.

They’re great for:
•Small apartments or rented homes
•Shops or offices with just a few cameras
•Temporary setups (like events or exhibitions)

Downside? They depend heavily on your Wi-Fi. If your internet is slow, your footage may lag or freeze.



🔹 Wired CCTV: Rock-Solid and Reliable

If you want something permanent and dependable, wired CCTV wins. It doesn’t rely on Wi-Fi, so you get smooth, clear footage all the time.

Perfect for:
•Bigger homes or villas
•Offices or shops with multiple cameras
•Anyone who doesn’t want to risk “Wi-Fi issues”

Downside? Installation takes time, and once it’s set, it’s not as easy to move cameras around.



🏆 What’s Best for You?

Think of it like this:
•Wi-Fi cameras are like smartphones—portable, flexible, and great for small spaces.
•Wired CCTV is like a desktop computer—built for heavy use and reliability.
