Quick, practical tools for planning commercial surveillance systems. Use these to size storage, plan network power, and get to a confident bill of materials faster.
Planning tools
Built for buyers who need an answer they can spec and defend.
Video Retention & Storage Calculator
Estimate required storage based on camera count, resolution, recording mode, and retention days. Includes advanced options for codec/bitrate.
PoE Power Budget Calculator
Plan PoE switch sizing and power headroom based on camera wattage, port count, and device mix. Helps avoid “24-port switch that fails at 18 cameras” situations.
Camera Coverage Estimator
Estimate coverage and identification range for common lens/FOV setups. Useful when choosing 2.8mm vs 4mm vs varifocal.
