Application: Surveillance of 26 million dollar fine arts center, theatre

To help meet school security needs through industry-leading technology and value in surveillance imaging solutions, a sales representative from Hackett Security contact us to express that they want to give Brickcom a try on a project. For securing the million dollar fine arts center, theatre in Chaminade College Preparatory School, and monitoring the flow of large crowds through public spaces, the public is now being watched by surveillance technology in semi-public establishments. Video Management System’s Video Insight software enables you to set alarms when events like motion detection and unplugging of the camera occur.

Upon installing the surveillance system, the space now could further be opened for hours, even available for rental, private functions and events open to public. What' s more, the user can track who has accessed to high-end gear such as audio, band instruments, etc. Along with the surveillance and monitoring of personal property, you can also use the camera to monitor valuable assets that need to be protected.

The Brickcom Dome Series is a full-featured, 3-axis, fixed-dome, network camera. With a megapixel progressive sensor and built-in 802.3af Compliant PoE, IR-cut filter/ IR illuminator LEDs/ Auto Light sensor, it can provide 24-hour, indoor surveillance. The DOME SERIES features a wide-angle and vari-focal lens, which offers wide view coverage of all angles. For easy viewing of the video feed, users can view the live feed from anywhere through internet browsers or 3G portable devices. As for the VANDAL DOME SERIES, which is designed for installation in harsh and challenging environments, or areas where the camera unit may experience physical abuse.

With an IP67 certified enclosure, the VANDAL DOME SERIES is not only weather proof, but also dust and rust resistant. By utilizing a built-in industrial fan and heater, it can perform well in extreme temperatures.

Picture quality is impressive

A sales representative from Hackett Security said, “We are very happy with the Brickcom Fixed Dome Series. The picture quality is impressive. The series are easy to install, operate and manage without sacrificing security — making me a natural choice for the property surveillance. All you need to do is plug Brickcom IP camera into your router and install the EasyConfig software that’s included free with your IP Camera. The Fixed Dome series cameras are advanced yet cost-effective ones providing high performance IP surveillance solutions.”

In this case, Brickcom provided the solution to transmit video surveillance images of fine arts center, theatre to six 24-port PoE Switches that sends power as well as data through the Ethernet cable. Power Over Ethernet (Specified by IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at Standards) enables electrical power to be carried along with data in the network cables (Cat x type) so that these devices need not be separately powered through a power source. The data was transmitted to a one Giga 24-port PoE Switch in the Central Control Room. While Ethernet technology is primarily used for establishing an Internet connection between an access point and a computer, it can also be used to transfer data between two devices.

Success

Our team in Brickcom has in depth experience of designing optimized solutions for enhanced user experience. Once Brickcom IP Solution is on guard, you do not have to personally monitor activities recorded by the IP camera or start the recording and alarms. It alerts you when motion is detected or at regular interval, depending on your choice. With Power over Ethernet technology LAN enabled services can work on IP network infrastructure through Ethernet cabling. Ethernet cable provides power to each camera of the IP system and enables transmitting data. IP cameras can be accessed from any location using Internet and can provide live coverage of an event. In limited and defined circumstances, video surveillance cameras may be appropriate to protect public safety, detect or deter, and assist in the investigation of criminal activity.

Brickcom provides a remote security solution allowing operations staff to monitor both the physical security of sites as well as the expected operation of the system. Finally, just because security and protection is worth a lot, that doesn't mean you should have to pay a lot for security cameras. Brickcom have options for every budget, and will work with you to make sure that you get the best security system that you can for your budget.
