** Approximate number of JPEG (compressed file) pictures. JPEG file sizes vary based upon camera model and internal file size and compression settings, as well as user-selected resolution and compression mode settings. In addition, JPEG compression will result in different file sizes based upon picture complexity. Some host devices may not support all of the Flash storage capacities listed. Consult your device's owner's manual for supported capacities.
*** Actual recording time will vary based upon camera model, selected resolution, compression settings and the content being recorded. Some host devices may not support all of the Flash storage capacities listed. Consult your device's owner's manual for supported capacities.
1 Megabyte(MB) = 1,000,000 bytes; 1 Gigabyte (GB) = 1,000,000,000 bytes

Wireless transmission lets you easily achieve a much greater range than wired security camera systems (unless you string an awful lot of wire). The average range of a wireless transmitter receiver will vary from 200ft. to 700ft. depending on environmental conditions such as thick walls, or electrical activity. This is a much larger range than the average wired system which is about 100-200 ft.
Wireless Camera Systems let you install and set up your surveillance video system quickly... because there are no wires or cables. However, when you are deciding whether a wireless solution is for you there are a few facts you need to consider in regard to the public radio frequencies you will be using.
Wireless transmitter/receivers let you upgrade just about any security camera into a wireless surveillance device! If you have chosen a camera type that meets your specific surveillance needs such as night vision, infra-red vision, fast shutter speed etc. you can convert them to a wireless camera by simply plugging your camera into a wireless transmitter and your video monitor, DVR, or TV into the matching receiver... Its really that easy.
