Cameras: CCTV systems consist of cameras that capture video footage. These cameras come in various types, including fixed cameras, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras, and dome cameras. They can be analog or digital (IP cameras).
Recording Equipment: Video footage captured by CCTV cameras is typically recorded and stored. This may involve digital video recorders (DVRs) for analog cameras or network video recorders (NVRs) for IP cameras. These devices save and manage video data.
Monitors: Monitors or screens are used to view live or recorded video feeds from CCTV cameras. They are often located in control rooms or security stations.
Cabling: CCTV systems require cabling, such as coaxial cables for analog cameras or Ethernet cables for IP cameras, to transmit video signals from cameras to recording equipment.
Power Supply: Cameras and recording equipment require power sources, usually provided through electrical wiring or Power over Ethernet (PoE) for IP cameras

Surveillance: CCTV systems are primarily used for surveillance and security purposes. They can monitor and record activities in various environments, including homes, businesses, public spaces, and critical infrastructure.
Deterrence: The presence of visible CCTV cameras can act as a deterrent to potential criminals or wrongdoers, reducing the likelihood of unlawful activities.
