CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television)
Systems
A private video surveillance system in which cameras transmit signals to specific, limited monitors and recording devices rather than broadcasting publicly. In casinos, CCTV forms the backbone of the entire surveillance infrastructure, connecting hundreds or thousands of cameras to centralized monitoring rooms. The system is “closed” to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive footage of gaming operations, cash handling, and patron activities.
In practice
Modern casino CCTV systems are IP-based digital networks rather than traditional analog closed circuits, though the term remains in common use.
