Key Differences in Technology

The main differences between these technologies are in signal transmission, image quality, and system flexibility. Here's a quick camera technology comparison.

FEATURE	IP CAMERAS	COAX CAMERAS
Signal Type	Digital	Analog
Resolution	High (up to 4K)	Lower (typically up to 1080p or less)
Scalability	Highly scalable	Limited by hardware
Smart Features	Advanced AI capabilities	Limited

Coaxial cable versus Ethernet cable comparison for security cameras

When choosing the best cable for a security camera system, you need to consider the type of cameras you are using and your goals for the system

FEATURE	COAXIAL CABLE	ETHERNET CABLE
Technology	Analog CCTV (HD-over-coax)	IP (Internet Protocol)
Resolutions	Up to 1080p or 4MP	Up to 4K and beyond
Power	Requires a separate cable	Can transmit power over the same cable (PoE)
Distance	Good over long distances (up to 1,000+ feet)	Limited to 328 feet (100 m) without extenders
Installation	Bulky, less flexible, requires more connectors	Thin, flexible, and simpler with PoE
Data Speed	Varies, generally lower	100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 10 Gbps
Future Proof	Limited	High degree of future-proofing
Connection Reliability	More likely to get image quality issues due to connection type	Solid connection, less issues
