to a TV, VCR, computer, etc. No wires are needed between the camera and
the receiver. The receiver can be placed anywhere from 700 feet to 10
miles away from the wireless camera. It just depends on which wireless
security camera model you buy. The receivers can penetrate as much as 8
walls. They also penetrate most solid objects such as: glass, plastic,
wood, fiber glass, and some metals. This is an added benefit for people
when they want to place the camera in a certain spot.

have to move the camera a bit. Sometimes moving it just a few feet can
make a huge difference in what you see. You also have to pay attention
to what kind of material the signal has to travel through. The denser
the material, the weaker the signal will be. It is usually best to have
the receiver positioned hire than the camera. This will give you the
best range.
