Below is a simulated example of a phone line video transmission viewer. With this hardware and software package, you can view your business's activity from your computer at home, or from anywhere in the world using your Lap-Top computer and modem.
"Real Time" video as seen on your TV at home is showing 60 pictures per second. The twisted wire used by the telephone company cannot transmit enough information within a second to view 60 pictures. Therefore, the typical "Refresh Rate" for telephone video transmission is about one picture every 3 seconds. Fast enough to "See" what is going on...... but NOT "Real Time". This product lets you chose different resolution quality transmissions. The slower the transmission, the better picture quality. Telephone transmission is an excellent management tool, but it does NOT replace the need for having a video time-lapse recorder at the location.
Watch over your business "LIVE" from anywhere in the world!
CCTV is traditionally thought of as being a "Security Tool". With Video Telephone Transmission, however, CCTV ("Security Cameras") becomes a most effective "Management Tool".
Supervision of business activity has always been an important responsibility of management. This responsibility translates into long work hours especially for retail and restaurant management. CCTV combined with a video recorder has been a tool that allows a manager to have some time away from work and still be able to review a period of time or a specific event that needs management's attention. Typically, the video recorder was capable of archiving 48, 72 hours or even a week of business activity.
As Denoncour Business Services started to supply Telephone Video Transmission to traditional customers (small retail store owners) a fundamental change took place in the types of recorders being purchased. Owners began to select the much less expensive 24-hour recorders. These would be the "Security" part of the CCTV system. Management would still have a video recording of seriously unusual events, but for day-to-day "Management Supervision", the telephone video transmission tool became more meaningful. A ten-minute "Live" spot check in the early morning or late evening hours had more appeal and relevance than reviewing hours of recorded activity.
The cost of Telephone Video Transmission has become most affordable. An improvement in computer programming, especially compression technology, has provided very effective refresh rates even when using standard telephone lines. Today, the correct combination of cameras, lenses, splitter/combiners, recorders, and Video Telephone Transmission makes a most powerful Security and Management Supervision tool.
