IDtek installs a range of cctv surveillance equipment at client premises such as office parks, airports, campuses, factories, and shopping centres. One of the brands of cctv surveillance equipment that we can recommend for installation is Samsung. The quality and functionality offered by Samsung are undisputed. Take for example the SNC-550N day and night network camera in their cctv surveillance range. It is network ready and supports infrared cutfilter removal. This day & night network camera has 0.002 Lux light sensitivity and provides amazingly clear imaging even in night conditions. It is easy to install, supporting dual voltage and Ethernet. The camera has high resolution imaging, and comes with real time MPEG 4 and JPEG compression capabilities. It also features privacy settings with up to four zones.
There are various camera surveillance terms. We find that by informing readers about the basic meaning of the camera surveillance terms, we help them to make informed decisions. Although we don’t sell over the counter camera surveillance products, but rather install complete security systems at client premises, we know that understanding what the features of a product are, is essential in buying decisions. One of the camera surveillance terms that you will come across is that of dual power. This simply refers to the fact that the specific camera surveillance equipment can operate on AC or DC Power, depending on the power requirements of the specific units. Resolution is another camera surveillance term often used. It refers to the quality of picture. The higher the resolution the better the image. Smart zoom is a feature that makes quick zooming into a specific part of an image possible. This has the benefit of faster identification of suspicious items on a person.
Understandably, not everyone is a security or technical expert, thus know everything about CCTV terminology, and that is why companies get in expert help from IDtek. We are able to not only provide designs, plans, and installation of security products, but also provide training on such to ensure that the security operators know exactly how the equipment functions. One of the CCTV terms that you will come across when browsing the best systems for surveillance is that of ICR. It stands for Infrared Cutfilter Removal. With this feature, the filter of colour is removed ensuring a higher level of camera light sensitivity. Another CCTV term is that of Day & Night – referring to the light conditions under which a camera can operate effectively. Back Light Compensation is yet another phrase that you will encounter. It refers to the compensation built into a CCTV system to handle the effects of a bright light at the back of a subject under surveillance.
IDtek installs a range of security products at client premises including Samsung IP cameras. The range of Samsung IP cameras is extensive, but each one of the products in the range is of high quality and well suited for a particular type of surveillance. Take for instance, the SNP-1000A which is one of the high resolution network ready indoor 10X PTZ IP cameras. It is perhaps one of the most economical, yet most powerful IP cameras for indoor usage available. With a ten times zoom functionality, it is easy for the security operator to quickly identify people entering or exiting the building and to identify whether they have any suspicious items with them. The camera has JPEG as well as MPEG 4 compression features. In addition it is one of the Samsung IP cameras which allows for real time transmission of footage, thus improving access control security of a building tremendously.
IDtek selects security products carefully ensuring that we only install the best and most proven brands of security products at client sites. As such one of the brands that we can recommend is that of Indigo Vision. The Indigo Vision range of IP based cameras include features such as MPeg 4 compression and H 264 compression abilities. The Indigo Vision IP based cameras come with digital interfaces eliminating the need to convert analog to digital format. Superior functionality, quality, and performance are three more reasons for selecting their range of cameras. The Indigo Vision cameras can be wall or ceiling mounted, and include Ethernet support enabling the installation of the cameras on the existing company security network. Real-time footage and analysis are also possible with these advanced IP based cameras.
Security risk control should be one of the main considerations when it comes to building management because information, employees, clients, vehicles , finances, the buildings, and assets should be protected. Security risk control measures should be in place to address access to the premise and specific areas within the premise by authorized persons only, reduction of fire risks, fraud, industrial espionage, and robberies, in addition to lowering high maintenance costs. As such it is imperative that a company make use of a complete security risk control system rather than stand alone units which cannot be monitored from a central place or from a remote location. Such a security control system should for instance, integrate parking management, surveillance, biometric access control, door control, smoke detectors, fire alarms, and user-friendly building management systems. IDtek is able to provide integrated security risk control systems for medium to large companies.
ONYXWorks ™ is a Honeywell solution to improve security and access management control. Making use of a single network, the ONYXWorks ™ solution is also compatible with other technologies allowing for operation with the Honeywell Notifier. Workstation functionality is improved through the ONYXWorks ™ system. It also features enhanced communication abilities allowing for TCP/IP wide area network in addition to the traditional Ethernet network system. The ONYXWorks ™ workstation allows for graphical display and works on the Windows XP operating system. With this solution the operator can easily monitor various sites from one workstation. It features a zooming function for a specific event and dynamic floor plan viewing capabilities.
IDtek, apart from installing other brand names, also installs a wide range of Lenel products at client premises. The reason why we install Lenel products is because their product range is extensive, highly scalable, reliable, and can be integrated with various technologies. The Lenel products include for instance, the Skypoint IP video management package allowing for the retrieval of large volumes of video footage from several cameras at one to multiple locations. They also offer the Skypoint Client Lite which enables the operator to monitor several cameras from a central point. With this solution, video footage can be exported through the use of a touch screen interface. The Lenel products also feature the OnGuard solution and the Total Security Management solution.
IDtek is a leading provider of advanced security solutions which integrate building management, parking management, fire detection, fire control, access control, time and attendance, data centre management, and surveillance security solutions. We do not offer any products for sale over the counter, but assess client security and safety risks. According to the results from the risk assessment, recommendations will be made. We work in close cooperation with client companies to ensure the best possible security solutions for the particular client company premise. Each premise is assessed and within the risk of the particular industry reviewed. We don’t offer a single solution, but rather a combination of security solutions which are installed at the client premise. We handle the whole project from assessment, installation, and testing to training of staff on the particular applications.
IDtek believes in the installation of well known and trusted brands. As such we provide complete security solutions at client premises through the installation of Honeywell products including the Honeywell intruder detection system, which can be set to react on movement in a specific area. The surveillance image is stored using a software application. The access control manager can select a specific timeframe to view if historical data of the intruder detection is required. The intruder detection can also be viewed in real time. It is even possible to specify who is authorised to view specific footage. The audit trail abilities of the system are essential for security management. If a higher level security is required the intruder detection system can be integrated with the Honeywell EBI building management application and can operate from a Windows 2000 platform.
