Shipping delays still heavily affecting CCTV industry

A combination of factors has the CCTV industry feeling the effect of the lack of available parts. The global chip shortage, shipping delays and an influx of orders coming out of the pandemic has greatly affected customers and vendors. Axis communications, one of the industry leaders, has had almost zero stock of their camera sensors for months. An order that would normally take a week to fulfill, can now take several months. The lack of Axis parts has had a ripple effect with other manufacturers picking up the slack. Avigilon, Hanwha among others have seen their sales increase during this time, although we are now seeing these manufactures with their own lack of availability.
