How we install the CP52
We survey the position first: the distance to what matters, the light at the worst time of day, and the cable route. Then we choose the storage size for the retention you need, mount and aim the camera, and set up alerts and users in Command.
Other camera models: CD22, CD32, CD43, CD53, CD63, CM22, CM42, CM42-S. See all on Verkada cameras or the model guide.
