A basic 4-camera hardwired CCTV system (including cameras, NVR recorder, and installation) typically costs contact us for a quote. An 8-camera system for a larger home or business runs contact us for a quote. Pricing depends on the number of cameras, cable run lengths, and storage requirements. We provide a free site inspection and quote. Wireless systems (which we generally don't recommend for primary security) cost less upfront but have ongoing reliability issues.
For reliable, always-on security — yes, significantly. Hardwired cameras use Power over Ethernet (PoE), meaning one cable carries both power and video with no WiFi dropouts, no batteries to replace, and no signal interference. Wireless cameras are convenient for renters or temporary setups, but for permanent home or business security on the Peninsula, hardwired is the professional choice. We always recommend hardwired for properties that will be unattended (holiday homes, businesses).
For a typical 3–4 bedroom home, 4 cameras covers the main entry, back door, driveway, and garage. A larger property or one on an acreage block in Red Hill, Flinders, or similar may need 6–8. For holiday homes left unattended, we recommend at least 4 cameras covering all entry points with remote monitoring. We'll walk your property and recommend the minimum effective number — we won't oversell cameras you don't need.
Yes. Every system we install includes remote viewing setup on iPhone, Android or PC, so you can watch live footage from anywhere in the world. We also configure motion detection so you receive instant alerts on your phone when movement is detected — useful for checking on tradespeople, cleaners or property managers while you're away.
PoE stands for Power over Ethernet — a single cable carries both power and video to each camera, so there are no separate power supplies, no batteries to replace and no WiFi dropouts. The cameras record to an NVR (network video recorder) with local storage, giving you reliable 24/7 recording. It's the professional standard for permanent home and business security.
Yes — holiday homes in Portsea, Sorrento and Blairgowrie often sit empty for months at a time, which makes them a target. A hardwired CCTV system with remote monitoring lets you watch the property live from Melbourne, interstate or overseas, receive motion alerts the moment something happens, and have evidence available immediately if a break-in occurs.
Yes. Impulse Electrical installs business CCTV systems with multi-site management for commercial premises across the Peninsula, including businesses along the Nepean Highway corridor.
