Parking Lot Surveillance



Application

Video surveillance technology plays an important role in improving security at many facilities worldwide. Statistics have shown that 80% of criminal acts reported to police at public centers and business offices occur in parking lots. To deter vandalism, theft, and other crimes, facilities are deploying video surveillance as part of a full range of security measures to remotely monitor/access/control site equipment from a central location.

Compared with an indoor setting, parking lots impose several additional requirements on surveillance networks, particularly because these environments are often in remote locations and subjected to a wide range of temperatures due to the outdoor location. Industrial Ethernet switches that support wide operating temperatures and PoE capabilities can fulfill these types of requirements. Managed Ethernet switches will ensure the ability to remotely monitor access/control any equipment deployed in the parking lot from a central location.

Trenching or cabling wire from each camera in the parking lot back to the main building can be very expensive. Therefore, instead of physically trenching cable, wireless communication is the most cost-efficient solution for sending video back to a central location.

Also, since cars are the chosen primary mode of transportation across America. This leads to parking structures and lots being under pressure to become safer for both the car and the people walking to-and-from them. Providing surveillance cameras throughout the parking area as well as access controlled gates have gone a long way to mitigate malicious behavior in these environments.

Application Requirements

Campus Security



Application

Campus environments (school or business) present a challenging opportunity for security. Vigilance must be maintained at all hours of the day and night. Having security guards posted throughout campuses 24-hours a day is not cost-effective, nor efficient. Instead, campus emergency phones, referred to as blue light phones, can be implemented by sporadically placing them throughout the campus. These emergency phones can be connected via an Ethernet cable, typically fiber optic, or wireless making them quite flexible for installation. Individuals walking throughout campuses can feel at ease knowing that these blue light phones will be able to immediately connect them to a security system when in need of safety.

Application Requirements
  • Wireless network in the area of installation
  • Wireless client in the blue light phone
  • PoE switch in the blue light phone to power PoE phone and other PoE devices (PLC for blue light, camera and motion sensors)
  • PoE switch may have to run on 24VDC while providing 48VDC to PoE devices
Solutions

Airport Perimeter Monitoring



Application

Airport perimeter security is essential in making sure the airplanes remain safe while on the ground. Running fiber optic cables around the perimeter provides ring redundancy and high bandwidth which are both key elements to this application. Putting up fences and hoping for the best is no longer effective, especially when creating a wall of surveillance cameras is no longer cost prohibitive. Antaira’s fiber optic ready switches ensure the protection of the airport runways by detecting unauthorized entrants.

Application Requirements
  • Must have a redundancy built into the the architecture of the network
  • High-resolution cameras require large amounts of bandwidth to transport the images back to the surveillance center
  • Long distance communication is a must when running the perimeter of even a small airport
  • Protection against foul weather such as lightning must also be considered
Solutions
  • INJ-C201G-bt-100-24-T (optional): When only a single device requires high power PoE, it may be more cost effective to use an injector. This also will work when many devices need high power PoE since the power budget on the 802.3bt switches typically will support only two or three 90 watt devices.
  • LMP-0702G-SFP-BT-T-V2: Modern cameras require the use of heaters, wipers, and lights to perform their task in various conditions. This requires up to 90 watts of power through PoE which can be provided by adding this industrial switch alongside the backbone switches.

Autonomous Surveillance



Application

As technology is constantly evolving, surveillance technology is also developing, especially autonomous surveillance. It has been proven that statically placed cameras have blind spots that can be easily averted at all times by criminals. However, one solution is autonomous surveillance which can come in the form of a robotic or mobile surveillance device. This type of surveillance brings unpredictability to the coverage of the static cameras while aiding in investigating anomalies quickly. This can all be done without human onsite supervision or in locations that may be hazardous to humans. These autonomous surveillance devices can be placed in locations such as hospitals or parks to ensure the safety and protection of citizens and the location it is placed in.

Application Requirements
  • Wireless network to provide communication between the autonomous security robot and the area network
  • Industrial switches to provide PoE power (48VDC) to sensors within the robot with only 24VDC
  • Wireless client access on the robot
  • PoE switches to provide PoE power and a 10 gig backbone to the static cameras and wireless access points
Solutions

Border Security



Application

Border security applications face several daunting challenges. There are long distances in both directions, unclear paths for ring redundancies and very harsh environments. The use of multi strand fiber over long distances allows sensors and cameras providing overlapping fields of surveillance to be connected together with Antaira switches. This allows for data to be brought back to surveillance centers for monitoring.

Application Requirements
  • The need for fiber optic transmission of data due to long distances
  • Redundancy is needed on the fiber to prevent outages due to a single failure
  • The ability to provide 48VDC to PoE devices when 24VDC power from solar arrays is the only power available
  • Equipment that can survive tough and extreme environments
Solutions
  • INJ-C201G-bt-100-24-T: Modern cameras require the use of heaters, wipers, and lights to perform their tasks in various conditions. This requires up to 100 watts of power through PoE which can be provided by adding this injector where needed..
  • LMP-1204G-SFP-BT-24-T: This managed PoE switch is ideal for locations where PoE is required to power cameras that require extra power up to 90 watts and where only 24VDC is available This industrial switch is capable of several redundancy protocols.
  • LMX-2004G-SFP-T: This managed switch provides 4 fiber slots allowing for redundant connections traveling in both directions along the border. This industrial switch is capable of several redundancy protocols.
  • LMX-3228G-10G-SFP-AC: Back at the surveillance centers, there will typically be many fiber connections coming in from the border, having a rackmount switch that is able to terminate all of these fibers is important. This Ethernet switch can terminate up to 28 fiber connections making it ideal for many security applications that use fiber optics.

Gate Monitoring



Application

Most secured facilities provide limited access to the general public. Traditionally these facilities relied heavily upon security guards to monitor traffic to and from the facility. Today, additional access control and security surveillance equipment is being implemented in order to improve efficiency and provide remote monitoring support to security guards.

In order to improve surveillance at the security gate, security equipment, such as PoE cameras, road blockers and badge readers might need to be added and connected to the network. Serial, fiber-optics, Ethernet and wireless are all different types of communication mediums that can be used to transport data from end security equipment to the network.

Obstacles such as distance, weather, and construction restrictions can provide limitations to how equipment can be connected. Laying hardwire cable or fiber optics from the security access gate to the main building can require expensive trenching and be time consuming. Therefore, wireless communication equipment would be the most efficient way to network devices from the main building’s control room to the security gate access location.

Keep in mind, a fenced security application usually presents a unique challenge. These gates are not always near a wired or fibered part of the security network. Additionally, older gate mechanisms use a serial interface which no longer is compatible directly with modern Ethernet networks. Combining serial with wireless and Ethernet can be tricky, but can be accomplished with Antaira’s serial to wireless device (STW-611C). This device will allow both serial and Ethernet information to be sent over a WiFi connection, permitting an operator to control an older gate with a serial interface as well as gather data from Ethernet sensors.

Application Requirements
  • Must be able to interface older serial technology with modern Ethernet and wireless technology
  • A need for an IP67 wireless access point for communication
  • A PoE switch to power the access point and IP cameras while providing a fiber backbone for transporting the data back to the surveillance center
Solutions
  • ARY-7235-AC-PD: This wireless unit is located inside the gate house and would be the access point the STW device would connect to.
  • LMP-0702G-SFP-BT-T-V2: Modern cameras require the use of heaters, wipers, and lights to perform their task in various conditions. This requires up to 90 watts of power through PoE which can be provided by a 802.3bt switch.
  • LMP-1002G-SFP-T: This industrial switch would power the ARY device and connect to the fiber back bone of the security network.
  • STW-611C: This is a serial to WiFi device with an Ethernet port. The device is located at the gate arm and would be able to connect to the gate’s serial interface as well as any local Ethernet interfaces (license plate reader) to bridge that information over a wireless connection to a security network.

Onboard Surveillance



Application

Equipping fleets with mobile video surveillance systems has become an essential part of the transportation industry. The presence of cameras onboard buses can not only deter fights, vandalism, robberies and assaults, but can also be used in investigations regarding traffic accidents. The reliability of the networking equipment is pertinent in order to transmit on-board security footage to a central location, therefore industrial grade products that are certified to operate under the constant shock and vibration environment of an on-vehicle application are required.

When an event occurs, control room operators at the bus depot will then be notified of the recorded event and will process requests for wireless transfer of video and other data when the bus arrives back at the depot. The data that is stored on the bus is automatically transferred wirelessly to the control room when the bus arrives back at the depot. For this wireless application, a wireless client is installed aboard each bus. While the buses come into the depot, each bus can connect with the IP67 rated access point and wirelessly download on-board security footage quickly and reliably.

In addition, power available on-vehicle is typically limited to 12VDC which can provide additional power challenges for PoE cameras, typically requiring 48VDC. Using voltage booster technology, an industrial grade PoE switch, designated with a -24, can use a low voltage input of 12~36VDC, and increase the power output to 48~55VDC required for PoE applications.

Application Requirements
  • A low voltage PoE switch to power up PoE cameras for monitoring safety and surroundings
  • A need for an IP67 wireless access point for communication at the bus depot
  • A serial device to power the smart card reader onboard
Solutions
  • ARS-7235-AC: Industrial wireless (IEEE 802.11) series provides rugged solutions for mobile, on-vehicle, wireless networks to automatically transfer data wirelessly to a main infrastructure upon entering a designated area.

Fire Alarm Monitoring



Application

Safety is a valuable asset. In a fire alarm system, a variety of devices work together with fire alarm panels through visual and audible alerts when smoke, fire, carbon monoxide, or other emergencies are present. These fire alarm codes are then immediately reported to a local fire prevention control center. In most metropolitan areas, buildings are required to install multiple fire alarm panels on each floor in order to pass along fire alarm codes to trigger warning signals and expedite the evacuation process.

The principle of networking involves connecting several panels together to form a system that allows different panels to be monitored by one geographical monitoring system. Typical fire alarm panels are designed with proprietary serial protocols that transmit fire alarm code information. Due to distance and environmental concerns, a serial fiber network can be implemented to overcome the typical serial copper cable length limitation of 1.2Km.

A dual serial to fiber network is also an effective way to decouple systems and reduce the risk of a portion of a facility going offline at any time due to system failure or maintenance requirements. Antaira’s industrial serial to fiber media converters are designed to ensure 24/7 and long-lasting operation. Each unit inside the fire alarm panel supports dual fiber connections to prevent data loss to the fire prevention control center.

Application Requirements
  • A need networking on a fire alarm system
  • Serial device connections for the networking back to a control center
Solutions
  • STF-401C Series, STF-501C Series,
    and STF-502C Series: Industrial serial to fiber Series provides a redundant serial fiber network to prevent data loss and reliably transmit fire alarm code to a remote fire prevention control center.
