CCTV racks are essentially equipment racks designed specifically for housing closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems. These racks are used to organize and secure various components of a CCTV system.
DVRs (Digital Video Recorders): These devices record and store video footage captured by CCTV cameras.
NVRs (Network Video Recorders): Similar to DVRs, NVRs record and store video footage, but they typically work with IP cameras and use network connectivity for data transfer.
Switches and Routers: These network devices facilitate data communication between various components of the CCTV system, such as cameras, recorders, and monitoring stations.
Power Supplies: CCTV racks may include power distribution units (PDUs) or power supplies to provide electricity to all connected devices.
Patch Panels: These panels help organize and manage the cables connecting different components within the rack.
Cooling Systems: Since CCTV equipment can generate heat, especially when operating for extended periods, some racks may include cooling fans or ventilation systems to prevent overheating.
