Typical Applications

See below typical applications for basic, intermediate and complex video surveillance (CCTV) systems, together with relevant case studies.

Basic Stand-alone Video Surveillance (CCTV) System

A typical basic stand-alone video surveillance (CCTV) system could consist of a single or 4 channel basic digital video recorder, with up to 4 internal or external CCTV cameras. The system could include activity triggered recording, audio monitoring and intercom features.

This could apply to small retailers or restaurants.

Intermediate Video Surveillance (CCTV) System

A typical intermediate video surveillance (CCTV) system could consist of a small rack mounted digital video recorder with up to 9 cameras (internal or external, fixed or moveable), controlled through a telemetry control unit. The system could include activity triggered recording and remote monitoring features and could be managed through a PC.

This could apply to schools, jewellers and small warehouses.

Complex Video Surveillance (CCTV) System

A typical complex networked video surveillance (CCTV) system could consist of several rack mounted digital video recorders, each recording up to 16 cameras (some possibly wireless), with a dedicated central control room for monitoring events during office hours and linked to a remote video monitoring and response centre out of office hours. The system could be fully integrated with access control and intruder protection to provide a fully integrated security system, and could be managed remotely on a PC from practically any location with a network connection.

This could apply to exhibition centres and hospitals.
