It's one of the most common questions when someone considers installing security cameras for the first time. And it makes sense — the options look the same from the outside, but in the day-to-day of a bar or a shop the differences show.
We'll explain it plainly so you can choose with good judgement.
The key differences, at a glance
When to choose WiFi?
WiFi is a good option if... Your premises are small or medium, the router is near the cameras, and you want a quick installation with no building work. It also fits well if you're in rented premises and can't make changes.
When to choose wired?
Wired is better if... You have large premises, over several floors or with thick walls that make the signal difficult. Also if you need maximum reliability — for example, in till or stockroom areas where you can't afford the camera to disconnect.
The real question you should ask yourself
More than WiFi or wired, what matters is that the system is properly sized for your premises. A badly placed WiFi security camera with a weak signal is just as useless as a wired camera pointing at the wrong spot.
