“This is an exciting time in our industry when the megapixel value proposition is now available in traditional CCTV installations using coax cabling,” said Mark Espenschied, Director of Marketing, Digital Watchdog. “The ability to see more detail with fewer cameras is not only more efficient for the operator, but reduces the cost of materials and installation to quickly realize real ROI.”
