Security Cameras Articles

Cloud-managed video surveillance has replaced the traditional NVR in most commercial deployments — and for good reason. Modern platforms like Rhombus and Avigilon Alta push AI inference to the edge (license plates, people, vehicles, anomaly detection) while centralizing management in a browser-based console that works from anywhere. This archive covers the operational realities: how to choose between leading platforms, how to size storage retention (7 days retention for a 4K camera is not the same as 30), how to deploy PoE correctly, and how to plan camera density for interior/exterior/perimeter coverage.

Unió Digital installs security cameras for Arizona construction, industrial, and commercial clients under Arizona Alarm License 25254-0. Our posts cover the intersection of physical and cybersecurity — because a camera that streams footage to an unpatched on-site NVR is both a surveillance asset and an attack surface. You'll find guidance on integrating cameras with access control, Rhombus and Avigilon platform comparisons, and practical installation advice (mounting height, IR throw, WDR settings for Arizona sun).
