Choosing between a wired and a wireless security system can feel overwhelming. Both have pros and cons, and the right choice depends on your needs.
Wired Systems:
-
Pros: More reliable connection, no battery changes, difficult to hack.
-
Cons: Complex installation, less flexibility in camera placement.
Wireless Systems:
-
Pros: Easy to install, portable, and flexible placement.
-
Cons: Dependent on Wi-Fi and battery power.
Which Should You Choose?
If you’re a homeowner looking for a permanent, rock-solid system, wired may be better. If you rent, move often, or prefer a DIY setup, wireless is the way to go.
Pro Tip: Many homeowners use a hybrid — wired for main areas, wireless for additional coverage.
