Anyone got some CCTV system experience?

What I've been tasked with is specifying a system that will watch a building on three sides - an entrance and two car parks (one either side)

I was thinking a trio of "Simplyautomate" C76FIR Wide Angle cameras.

But obviously, I know very little of this sort of thing - types of connection? Power?

recording and video output to some sort of monitor (preferably computer monitor, got plenty of them.....)

I recall a thread on here talking about it. One guy was a specialist in CCTV. I think the thread was about a car being stolen / house broken into to get keys..... I just can't remember the chap's name...

Bit hard to comment without an idea of the area you are trying to cover but Autodomes on opposing corners of the building will cover all four sides, car park if it's just outside the building etc.

Requires a Cat5/6 Network point, not sure if you would need a fused spur or if this camera uses PoE as CCTV is not strictly my field.

Feel free to ignore as I don't know much about CCTV systems. My thinking is to be sure that you have been given, or have written, a general spec with overall objectives to be achieved, which has been agreed and subsequently costed and re-agreed.

Simplest way to describe I suppose is to ask whether (a) it just looks as if cameras are there; ( cameras will be there and monitor events on tape - and if so how will the tapes be reviewed and what action will be expected; © cameras will show on screens which are constantly monitored and what action will be taken; (d) how tapes are labelled, stored, rotated etc.

Just my thoughts.
