IP security camera systems that do more than record

An IP security camera system uses network-connected cameras to capture and transmit digital video. Depending on the camera, footage may be recorded directly on the device or through a gateway or recorder, then accessed through a secure video management platform.

Yes. Kastle can connect many compatible existing IP cameras through a Kastle gateway, bringing cameras from different manufacturers and locations into one managed video platform. Kastle can evaluate your current system, identify compatibility and coverage gaps, and recommend replacing only the equipment that needs to be upgraded.

An IP security camera system uses network-connected cameras to capture and transmit digital video over your existing network. Depending on the system, video may be recorded in the camera, through a gateway, or in the cloud. Kastle’s IP camera systems include AI-powered analytics, intelligent search, remote access, and integrations with security technologies like access control.

The right camera depends on the environment, viewing distance, lighting, installation location, and area that needs to be covered. Dome cameras offer discreet and versatile coverage, bullet cameras provide focused outdoor visibility, panoramic and multi-sensor cameras cover wider areas, and mobile video solutions support temporary or remote locations.

Yes. Integrating video surveillance with access control helps teams connect entry activity with corresponding camera footage, investigate incidents more efficiently, and manage multiple security functions through a more centralized experience.

Authorized users can access live and recorded video through Kastle’s cloud-managed video platform. Intelligent search tools help users locate relevant footage more quickly, while centralized management provides visibility across multiple cameras, properties, and locations.

Kastle provides managed system configuration, cloud-based administration, system health monitoring, and ongoing support. The system can identify camera or connectivity issues and helps reduce the burden of managing video infrastructure internally.

Physical access control refers to hardware-based security, like locks, readers, credentials, and barriers that restrict entry to a building or space.

Security and access control go hand in hand: access control is a core physical security measure that protects a property, working alongside monitoring and alarm response to keep people and spaces safe.
