3 Best Outdoor CCTV Camera Power Supply System Reiview
Richard Wang May/10/2022
With the widespread deployment of the Video Surveillance system outdoors, more requirements have been placed on its matching Outdoor CCTV Camera Power Supply System. First, because the challenges faced by the system in the outdoor environment are far greater than that of the indoor system. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the design of lightning protection, anti-rust, explosion-proof and other aspects to meet the requirements of outdoor deployment. At the same time, when deployed in various outdoor environments around the world, it is often faced with unstable or even no power scenarios, which puts forward higher requirements for the Outdoor CCTV Camera Power Supply System. Let’s take a look at 3 Best Outdoor CCTV Camera Power Supply System that the market has to offer today.
The Huawei PowerCube 500 is the most mature and widely deployed outdoor CCTV Camera Power Supply on the market. What differentiates Huawei PowerCube 500 from other products in the market as CCTV Camera Power Supply is that it is an integrated video surveillance powercub, pre-integrated with network backhaul and power supply systems, ensuring power supply, network access, ingress protection, surge protection, temperature control, and more for outdoor video sites. The system Ingress Protetion reaches IP65, and the overall natural heat dissipation is a highly integrated maintenance-free system.
Function
Huawei PowerCube 500 has a hybrid power version, which can have solar power and power grid hybrid operation, which is powerful, but it also brings problems. We can refer to the specifications below, we will find that Huawei only provides Hybrid Power Version and No Power Backup Version. That is when you need to use the Complete off grid solar version and the UPS version, you will have to use the hybrid power version. This leaves you with having to pay extra for some of the features you don’t need. The Pure grid version has no power backup, which obviously does not meet the high reliability requirements of the video surveillance network.
Customization
Huawei doesn’t accept any customization, so if your scene is specific then this will be a problem.
Cost-Effective
Based on Huawei’s global pricing system, its price input is not cheap. So when you use the PowerCube 500 to build the Outdoor CCTV Camera Power Supply System, it is often only after the government projects can afford the Capex investment.
