What is it?..

Internet Protocol Surveillance is the biggest technology development in the surveillance industry for 30 years. It enables the transmission of CCTV images over your existing computer or integrated network using IP-addressable cameras, thus avoiding the need for expensive cabling.

In association with our partners, we offer a full range of surveillance camera and Intelligent Environment Monitoring products that integrate directly into your Local Area Network (LAN).

IP CCTV

Each camera has its own IP address and – via central software management – can be accessed by several users in any location on any network or across the Internet.

IP CCTV has many cost and technology advantages over traditional DVR systems that use analogue cameras. These include:

• Lower installation costs, as IP eliminates the need for dedicated video cabling

• The system is based on IP standards: cameras are easy to connect and offer remote accessibility

• Integrate with existing CCTV systems and equipment

• Smarter network cameras take on much of the work of the DVR and include functions such as time scheduling, targeting higher frame rates and motion-detecting triggering

• Highly scalable solutions, with no maximum number of cameras

• Remote accessibility and remote storage means IP network video is inherently more reliable and secure

• Beyond security, applications such as process control, integration with databases, employee training and so on, can cut costs and enhance revenue

Using video senders and receivers, a pan-tilt zoom camera can be controlled from anywhere in the world with less than a second delay over low-bandwidth circuits.

This technology negates the need for high-cost leased-line and ISDN circuits by converting the analogue video signal to MPEG4 streams, which can be transmitted across cost-effective low-bandwidth ADSL circuits. Once these MPEG4 streams are received by the receiving equipment, they are then converted back to an analogue format, which the central recording, monitoring and alarm centre software can handle.

You can now deploy rapid, cost-effective residential video control in a fraction of the time it would take to install a leased-line or ISDN circuit, by installing QOS ADSL circuits.

Using senders and receivers, access control can be managed worldwide across corporate LANs and the Internet. By linking access with video this can greatly reduce the need for manned guards controlling access to staff or visitors.

Utilizing central recording, monitoring and alarm centre software which has a fully customizable, web-based front end, corporate, government and security providers can now centrally monitor and manage alarms, access and link video with duplex audio.

Intelligent Environment Monitoring

Intelligent Environment Monitoring is a web-accessible network device for monitoring environmental and equipment alarm status in building, server rooms and remote locations.
It can detect threatening conditions such as fire, flood or overheating before equipment is damaged or destroyed.

A wide range of sensors can be incorporated to provide complete environment monitoring and control solution. These include: UPS/HVAC alarm monitoring; IP camera support; mains switching; temperature sensors; relative humidity sensors; light sensors; dual-tech intruder detectors; smoke, heat and carbon monoxide sensors; liquid-level sensors; flow sensors (air, liquid); pressure sensors and switches; acoustic sensors; vibration sensors; glass break; water leak detectors; condensation detectors; pneumatic controllers; door contacts; switches (panic button, pressure mats etc.); servo-motors (water-valves, window openers etc.)
