There are two different types of wireless security cameras. Some come with an installation kit, and some are similar to an IP camera.

The first type of camera comes usually as part of a package with a transmitter and a receiver. This type of camera works much like a regular TV camera. In this case the transmitter and the receiver replace the regular TV cable. The camera connects to the transmitter while the receiver connects to the recording device. That way the transmitter can be received and viewed from the camera.

The second type works somewhat like an IP camera. This type of camera is also easier to use then the first type. These cameras have a network adapter that connects to a router or a switch. They can be accessed from any computer in the world, but are also more expensive.

When choosing between a wired or wireless camera, the better choice would be a wireless one. They are easier to use, and are also easier to place and hide. You wont have to deal with the wires, and overall will have better security.
