Closed Circuit Television Camera (CCTV) is one of the most common ways to beef up your home security. However, many have been deterred by the complexity of its installation and initial cost of ownership. If you are one of them, Sensonic's wireless CCTV starter kits might be the answer.

Available in two types of kits – VM400 for indoor and VM500 for outdoor, installing them is as easy as installing a webcam. Just plug the wireless receiver into your Windows PC’s (sorry, Mac OS and Linux users!) USB port, install all the bundled software and off you go.

Don’t be fooled by its simplicity though, the Sensonic Wireless Digital CCTV is really a fully fledged monitoring system.

What else does the Sensonic’s wireless CCTV kits got over other CCTV systems?

Sensonic Wireless Digital CCTV utilizes an encrypted 2.4GHz wireless network between its cameras and wireless USB receiver, which is more secure compared to a normal Wi-Fi based system.

To further strengthen the system against hacking, the receiver can only be paired exclusively to Sensonic cameras and is able to support up to four cameras at one time.

Through the bundled software, the system is able to record both video and audio which can be played back when the need arises.

Another important function that Sensonic has built into their wireless CCTV kits is the ability to view the camera’s feed remotely; either through a web browser, Skype or mobile devices such PDAs and smartphones.

The cameras can also be set to be activated by motion and an alert will be sent to your email whenever it occurs to make sure that you are aware of any unexpected movement in your establishment.

Each kit comes with a camera, USB receiver, power adaptor, CCTV software installer and a wall-mount bracket.

The indoor kit comes with an extra magnetic desktop stand, in case you want to use them as a webcam which is one of the kit’s listed functions.
