SUPPLY + PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION

Reolink CCTV Installation

Often our starting point for homes and smaller businesses wanting wired PoE cameras, useful smart alerts and convenient app-based viewing. A legitimate professional installation option for the right site.

Sentinel5 Home & Small Business Pick

Capable CCTV. Straightforward everyday use.

We can use Reolink for a shop or small office as well as a home. The RLC-811A offers an adjustable lens, while the CX810 is a different choice for colour images in low light. For a larger site we compare the whole operating requirement with Hikvision, rather than dismissing Reolink as consumer-only.

Choose Reolink if…

  • Homes, driveways, garages, small shops and offices
  • A straightforward PoE installation with practical remote viewing
  • Smart camera features without a complicated day-to-day workflow
