Investment in video security systems is growing globally. The cost per device is dropping at the same time that overall investment in the system is often increasing.
Security device reliability is measured in mean time before failure or MTBF. Aside from physical failure, there also needs to be consideration for technology upgrades. Significant improvements in capabilities are made every year, which may justify replacement of an existing system before it has physically failed.
In this video, Tom Fontana provides more information about considerations related to security camera life expectancy.
