IP Cameras for Business: A Complete Buyer’s Guide

IP (Internet Protocol) cameras transmit video over your network, enabling remote viewing, cloud storage, and AI-powered features that traditional analog cameras can’t match. If you’re upgrading or installing new surveillance at your business, here’s what to evaluate.

Key Specs to Evaluate

  • Resolution: Minimum 1080p for most applications; 4K for license plate capture or large areas
  • Field of view: Wide-angle for open areas, narrow for corridors and entry points
  • Night vision: IR night vision range measured in feet/meters
  • Weatherproofing: IP67 or higher for outdoor cameras
  • PoE vs. wireless: PoE (Power over Ethernet) is more reliable for fixed installations
  • Storage: Cloud vs. local NVR — cloud is more secure and scalable

Vivant’s team handles camera selection, installation, and ongoing management. See our surveillance solutions.
