Elro cameras are one of the best known surveillance cameras because they are offered at all known hardware stores and also offered at normal electronics stores. We are regularly approached with questions about the quality of Elro cameras and the general operation of the IP cameras and wireless models of Elro shop.
Quality Elro cameras:
Many of the customers who approach us about advice regarding Elro cameras have the idea that Elro surveillance cameras or Elro IP cameras are of poor quality. Although Elro cameras are not in the segment of an Axis or Bosch, the quality of Elro cameras is generally quite reasonable and suitable for most home security applications. Most people who buy Elro cameras also do this more to have surveillance cameras that put them off. You can even buy certain dummy cameras from Elro for this. We do notice, however, that more and more people also want to go for higher image quality and actually expect an Elro security camera to give just as good and sharp an image as their own camcorder. For this it is in many cases better to go for a different kind of camera system than Elro. View a complete overview of high quality Security cameras here .
Operation of Elro cameras:
Most of the Elro cameras that are offered for sale work wirelessly. Although this has many advantages, especially in terms of installation, it has some disadvantages compared to stability and quality. Because in Europe no camera systems may be sold that transmit more than 10 MW, the transmission distance of Elro cameras is very limited in practice and the receiver or recorder of the Elro camera must be close to each other. There are already digital surveillance cameras of which a frequency is, as it were, agreed between the surveillance camera and recorder, which considerably increases the distance.

Elro IP cameras:
In addition to wireless cameras, there are also cameras from the elro brand that work on IP technology. This means that the camera connects to your network via your router or Wi-Fi connection. The advantage of these cameras is that they can also be viewed from a different location on a computer or smartphone, such as the iPhone. View the latest IP camera wireless here

This seller can give advice on whether it is possible to hang the Elro camera at the location that you want and whether, for example, you can use multiple wireless Elro cameras at the same time. A separate vendor is not present in most hardware stores and you need to select an Elro (IP) camera system based on the description given.
