VSoIP - evolvingfrom Analogueto IP CCTVSometimes as a customer or integrator you face an oftenconfusing choice about the best way to bring CCTV systems intothe 21st century computer age.Recognising this quandary, CBC has developed VSoIP, possibly the first trulysoftware based hybrid video management solution.VSoIP’s main strength is that it doesn’t just allow you to connect to amultitude of IP cameras and video codecs – it also enables you to connectyour existing analogue cameras, thereby achieving the best of both worlds.The Ganz VSoIP system has been designed to provide the integration andbenefits of IP based products whilst offering advantages of using yourexisting analogue equipment.Scalability gainsVSoIP is a true client server application that will give you scalability, fromjust a few cameras right up to a system with hundreds of surveillance unitsspread over multiple sites and monitored by multiple operators. Thesystem’s unique design enables existing analogue cameras to be monitoredand managed just like an IP device.This will allow you, as a system manager, to view multiple analoguecameras anywhere on your site/s as individual cameras. Their pictures canbe displayed either on the VSoIP video wall displays or as images on youroperators’ screens. Analogue images can be mixed and matched withimages from your IP cameras and video Codecs to provide complete controland management of the system. This flexibility includes the ability to viewlive images and review recorded images from any site, any time, anywhere.Open protocolsThe open architecture of VSoIP supports not just the Ganz and VSII range ofIP cameras and video Codecs but also over 20 of the world’s most popularIP video equipment, and providing multiple protocols for control of a vastarray of PTZ devices. The VSoIP video management system will give youtotal control of your estate, whether on a single site or multiple locations.Your operators can navigate their way around simply and efficiently usingVSoIP’s server based HTML maps feature, which offers an overview map ofthe site as well as multiple level maps to give the greatest detail, eg asingle room or corridor.

A quick click on the camera icon will then provide the operator with instantpictures of that area. For those where a map feature is not required theoperators can easily find the cameras of choice by clicking on the relevantcamera or cameras display in a ‘Windows’ PC tree structure displayed onthe left-hand side of the monitor screen.Alarm managementThe operators can also monitor and manage any alarms connected to thesystem. Once an alarm is activated a chain reaction of events can betriggered instantaneously –activating PTZ cameras, switching lighting,setting up automatic video connections, operating electronic doors, settingup different recording sequences and so on. VSoIP can even be set up sothat multiple alarms have to be activated together before a sequence istriggered. Using Boolean logic to manage alarms and their reaction youhave total control. No matter how an alarm event is handled, as soon asone alarm is activated it is flashed up on all your operators’ screens sothey have full knowledge of what is happening around your site/s.ConclusionIn summary, the VSoIP video management system’s true client serverapplication means that smaller installations can be installed on a PC. Forlarger applications multiple VSoIP recorders and VSoIP clients can be used.With its maps feature, tailored rights for every operator, integration withthird party equipment & multiplatform decoders, touch screen displays;almost endless configurations can be achieved – making VSoIP the idealchoice for any application.Putting you, the system manager back in control.✔✔✔✔✔✔All your imagesAll your alarmsAll your recoded footageAll your PTZ camerasAll your sitesAll your operators and much moreFor further information on how VSoIP can help you manage your new orexisting system, please visit www.ganzvsiop.com, or in your next edition ofIP Focus magazine.Visit us at IIPSEC 20ten 3rd – 5th February and see VSoIP in action foryourself.

These integrations enablecentral stations and their integrators theconfidence to deploy any of the Pelco productsknowing that they will be fully supported withinthe Immix video monitoring platform.ASL Safety & Security to supply IP-enabled publicaddress products to Norwegian rail network.The preliminary installations covering 75 stations willallow local and central staff to make platformannouncements to their individual stations as wellLong Line Public Address announcementtransmissions to individual and grouped stations.Crucial factors in the contract award were the abilityof the ASL solution to integrate with the client’spassenger information management system and theircapability to deliver a 20-year support framework.Sousan Azimrayat, Director at ASL, said: “Over the lastthree years we have implemented a major investmentprogramme in IP-based PA solutions with combinedrouting, amplification, PC/DVA, Text to Speech andRemote Diagnostic functions in one 2U fanless unit,making it ideally suited to solving the challengesposed by major transport infrastructure Long Line PAand Voice over IP projects.”She continued: “Some of the stations are above theArctic Circle and extremely remote with minimalstaffing. We were able to accommodate the client byredesigning our microphones on our ambient noisesensors to cope with temperatures as low as -50˚C.The improved quality and intelligibility of PAannouncements will be a real benefit to theNorwegian travelling public.”The Norwegian National Rail Administration(Jernbaneverket) owns and maintains the country’srail network including track and stations as well asbeing responsible for all traffic management otherthan tramways and rapid transit. Track is standardgauge and covers 4,114 kilometres of which 2,552kilometres is electrified. The installation will beperformed by Jernbaneverket’s own installation armwith site supervision and commissioning assistancefrom ASL Safety & Security.A framework agreement is in place between ASL andJernbaneverket for the rest of the network with atotal of 283 stations.

Network Webcams’ work withexpanding mobile phone retailer Get Connected!demonstrates the full potential of IP CCTV.Network Webcams began working with Get Connected!in November 2005, when the retailer had around 30mobile phone stores. Since then, the chain hascontinued to expand across Wales and into Shropshire,the Midlands and the West Country and now hasaround 60 branches. As each new store opens, GetConnected!’s General Manager Ben French ensuresthat one or two Panasonic IP cameras are suppliedand installed by Network Webcams.The decision to use IP CCTV technology was both asecurity and a store management issue: Ben realisedthat by having a live feed from each of his outlets, hecould not only use the cameras as a deterrent toshoplifters but also remotely view all aspects of storepresentation in real time, from making sure thatpromotions were clearly visible and merchandisingwas up to scratch to checking that staff were on timeand properly dressed.The cameras’ security role has worked well, accordingto Ben: “In a small store just one or two cameras areimmediately visible and customers are aware of themso they’re a good deterrent. Get Connected!’s headoffice is able to record any incidents remotely on twoservers and we have successfully prosecuted thievescaught on camera.”The benefits of IP CCTV go further than that, though.Said Ben: “Essentially, I manage 60 stores remotely viaour head office – it’s a great system that really worksfor us. I would never run a retail chain without IPcameras and wouldn’t hesitate recommending them toanyone who wants to keep an eye on their stores.”“It’s one of the best investments I have ever madewithin the company. The costs are low and a fractionof traditional CCTV. Staff are comfortable with the ideaand appreciate the protection it gives them.”

IPfocusIP-in-ActionNew CCTV surveillance system at Gunsan Port, South KoreaIn a project undertaken with South Korean partner,Tuvics Co. Limited, COE has provided a videotransmission and management solution for GunsanPort in South Korea.Gunsan Port is located at the estuary of Keum River in thecentral region on the west coast of South Korea. GunsanPort has a rich history, being the principal point of ricetradefor its region of South Korea from as early as the1300s. In recent years, the port has become a majorcommercial hub handling more than 20 million tones ofcargo annually distributed over some 4600 meters ofpiers. A variety of products now pass through Gunsan, withdedicated wharfs for cement, oil & silica, and a large carexclusivequay for shipping from manufacturing facilities.Given the large physical area of Gunsan Port, COE’ssuperior video transmission technologies were animportant factor in maintaining high quality video atcontrol rooms stationed throughout the port. Highquality picture and sound over an extended distance wasessential to the success of the installation and COE’sequipment provided an excellent solution to thischallenge. At Gunsan Port, Tuvics implemented an IPnetwork infastructure through integrating a variety ofCOE transmission equipment. COE’s X-Net H-Card (H.264)encoders were used at the camera source to convertanalogue output from the cameras to digital, H.264compressed video. This video signal was then passedthrough COE X-Net Ethernet Switches. The X-Net EthernetSwitch is a new product from COE and includes seven10/100BaseT ports and three Gigabit RJ-45/SFP opticcombo ports, enabling up to seven Ethernet inputs to betransmitted via each switch. At Gunsan Port, multiple X-Net Ethernet Switches were deployed, utilising theflexibility of combo optical fibre and gigabit RJ-45 outputsto provide seamless transmission of video, PTZ controland alarms across the large network area of the site.Prior to the installation of their surveillance system,Gunsan Port’s security measures were restricted to an20_issue 25alarmed fence to detect security breaches. One of thekey challenges in designing and implementing this projectwas the integration of their existing alarm system for thefence with COE’s Video Management System (VMS)enterprise software for system management.In addition to integrating alarm responses from theperimeter fence to the VMS system, COE has also enabledPTZ cameras around the perimeter to respond to thesealarms, redirecting to the point of contact along thebarrier fence as an alarm is triggered. This solutionenables operators to determine the nature of a threat totheir site both rapidly and securely, gaining insight as tothe best course of action before making any physicalapproach to the incident. Recording of this footage andall other video at Gunsan Port is enabled through COE’s X-Net Network Video Recorder (NVR) software. Thismodular, scalable recording solution for digital recording,storing and archiving of video from analogue & IPcameras was integrated with the existing fencing alarmsystem at Gunsan Port to provide a scalable solution forvideo recording and management at this project.Additional security for Gunsan Port is provided byintegration of COE’s X-Net VI video analytics package. X-Net VI, based on Agent VI technologies, distributesanalytical processing between the device at the edge ofthe network (encoder) and a remotely based server. Thisunique hardware/software combination ensures thatanalysis is performed on highest quality uncompressedvideo, whilst the processing power available throughutilising server based analysis is also retained. Thesystem installed at this Phase at Gunsan Port comprisesover 90 new analogue cameras which have beenenhanced with X-Net VI capabilities by addition of COEequipment.The core requirement of the Gunsan Regional MaritimeAffairs & Fisheries Office (GRMAFO) when commissioning anew video surveillance system was to heighten thesecurity of Gunsan Port whilst gaining control over themanagement and response to security threats.Integrating COE equipment, augmented by expertinstallation by Tuvics, this objective has been met, andGunsan Port has received a CCTV system that is bothcutting edge and fully scalable to expand as theirrequirements develop in the future.Yong Ill Woo, General Manager of Tuvics comments: “COEwere instrumental in the success of this project, providingexpert network architecture design and thesupplementary tools and support to enable my team toperform this installation to an exceptional standard. Thehigh quality of COE equipment supported our project atGunsan Port to the highest standard, and we are verypleased with the end result.”COE’s high quality, rugged products excel in the seaportenvironment, as evidenced by our installations at GunsanPort, the Port of Singapore, the Port of London and more.Veracity CAMSWITCH powers network video for NASAWhile NASA neither explicitly nor implicitlyendorses Veracity's products nor Axis' products,NASA has chosen to use CAMSWITCH by Veracityas well as the AXIS 207 Network Camera in theDesert RATS Space SuitVeracity, the leader in IP connectivity and transmissionsolutions, has enabled the NASA Desert RATS (DesertResearch and Technology Studies) team to powernetwork video cameras located on their researchers’astronaut backpacks whilst on the move.Comprised of NASA personnel as well as NASA partners,NASA’s Desert RATS are a NASA-led team who worktogether to prepare for human-robotic exploration inspace. Each year, the team conducts field testdemonstrations of extra-vehicular hardware underrepresentative planetary surface terrain conditions inthe Arizona desert.The RATS activities also help develop the necessarylevels of technical skills and experience for the nextgeneration of engineers, scientists, technicians, andastronauts who will be responsible for realising thegoals of NASA’s Constellation Program.NASA is using Veracity’s CAMSWITCH Quad to supplypower to an AXIS 207 network camera. The camera ismounted on backpacks worn by RATS researchers whoare wearing working space suits and the cameraprovides a forward facing view of the scene ahead.The CAMSWITCH QUAD is located within the backpackitself and was chosen by NASA due to size, ruggedconstruction, and the ability to take DC power.Veracity’s CAMSWITCH QUAD offers a cost-effective,rugged four plus-one-port 100BaseT Ethernet industrialnetwork switch especially designed for networked videoapplications. Four of the ports offer Power overEthernet (PoE) for powering network cameras via theCAT5 network cable. The fifth port on the opposite sideof the case provides a convenient downstream networklink for easy cable management.Scott Sereboff, CEO of Veracity USA, mentioned that:“CAMSWITCH’s versatility made it a winner for the folksat NASA. Whether or not the RATS space suit ever windsup on a shuttle or moon mission, the fact that Veracity’sCAMSWITCH is within it is immensely flattering and atestament to the design of the unit and the people whoengineered it from drawing to product.”Alastair McLeod, managing director, Veracity UK Limited,commented:“CAMSWITCH QUAD is ideal for this application as it caneasily be powered by a DC power source and is ruggedenough for the most extreme conditions.”

IP-in-ActionIPfocusIP Intercom for Thomas Miller Building from CommendA prestigious English company, established over many years,Thomas Miller is a London based company operating in theFinancial Market. Underwriting Insurers, they have workedalongside many companies operating out of theCommonwealth, and predominantly within the Shippingmarket.As part of their development, the company decided to movelocation to the old Zurich Insurance Building at 90 FenchurchStreet. The whole building, whilst architecturally endearingfrom the outside, needed to be completely re-built internally,with new internal offices, office equipment, security systems,CCTV and a reception area.John Morgan of Service Com acted for the company as aConsultant for the procurement of the security and CCTVsolutions. John has worked with Commend UK Ltd (the newname for Complus Teltronic Ltd), for many years, and knewthat a system from Commend would be the best solution forthe customer, achieving high quality of speech, reliability andwould be future proof.The ProjectThere are six floors in the Thomas Miller building, five ofwhich are occupied by the Underwriters. To ensure there iscommunication throughout the building, especially in times ofemergency, it was decided to put loudspeakers on all floorsand hide them under the ceiling tiles in all except thebasement floor. These Penton Loudspeakers supplied bySisys, connect to the Commend system using KE 520’s(Amplifiers) and operate over the IP (Internet Protocol)network using Commend’s ET 901’s (IP Gateway’s).In the reception area, an EE 811 hands free Master station isused to make announcements throughout the building and toreceive and make calls to the entrances. Mounted on thisstation is a small CCTV monitor. This screen is split into fourlive images which take views from the four entrances. When acall is made, the operator can see where the call is comingfrom on the Master station, but can also verify them on themonitor. The image can then be made larger on the screen sothat the operator can see and talk to the caller.There are four main entrances, each of which has a CommendSlave station so that visitors can call to request access.The RequirementThe main requirements were for all the security systems inthe building to run over IP and for the entire system to becurrent, for at least 10 – 15 years. Access intercom wasrequired at all entrances to the building and a public addresssystem on all floors, from the basement to the 6th for bothsecurity and emergency announcements. CCTV camerasneeded to be installed around the exterior of the building toverify who callers are and for general security surveillance.Access Intercom was needed at the following entrances:• Goods In entrance• VIP entrance• Main entrance• Underground car park• Front entranceEach intercom station calls back to an EE 811 Master stationsituated in the main foyer. On this master station is a smallmonitor. This screen shows a picture split into 4. Each ofthese images shows a camera shot of each of the entrances,so that the operator can see who is calling.A secondary Master station is housed in the Facility Managersoffice which also has all the functionality of the receptionMaster station.With the versatility of the Commend IP solution, the wholesystem in London, including integrated CCTV can be operatedby Thomas Millers’ other office on the Isle of Man.The SolutionTim Hasslegrave the Contracts Manager for Thomas Millerstated “The quality of speech that we get is good, our mainproblem was with ambient noise from the street outsidemeaning that the people answering the calls could not hearwhat was being said”The Commend Intercom equipment has resolved this via itsadjustable ambient noise level settings, enabling volumelevels to be set to enhance speech and reduce backgroundnoise.Pan Nordic Logistics, delivers Greater Asset Protectionwith Avigilon HD Surveillance SystemAvigilon HD Surveillance System helps track deliveryof goods to protect against theft and loss andheightens overall securityPan Nordic Logistics, the Nordic region’s leadingtransportation and logistics company, has deployed theAvigilon High Definition (HD) Surveillance System at its mainterminal to improve security and ensure the safe delivery ofgoods.

IPfocusPaul Hennings to AddressALL-over-IP forum, MoscowPaul Hennings of the IP User Group, will discuss why IPcamera sales is expected to overtake analogue by 2010while network based surveillance software sales isexpected to grow by 37%. A European market surveyshowed that 2/3 considered IP as important to businessbut more than a half people claimed that they were notsufficiently informed about it. Among top applications ofIP there were CCTV, time and access and integrated systems.Current trends:Paul, Editor of IP Focus stated “The industry is now in a state of flux moving from asales, installation and maintenance model to the much more creative customer facing,design, planning and implementation model as utilised in the IT industry. A model thatprovides on-going business, a growth path via further integration and convergence andultimately greater customer satisfaction”No doubt, technology in the security market today is changing. Surveillance, locks,doors, card readers, remote monitoring, gate and visitor control, fire detection andmore, are now on the network. IP technology provides an excellent return oninvestment coupled with exceptional benefits. All over the world, a great number ofbusinesses have already started to make the switch. Along the way they are findingthat IP technology is providing a security solution that is affordable. flexible, reliableand scalable but this is not going un-noticed by the IT Industry.An additional thought – in many European countries there are now legislative andeconomical reasons for going green and one of the major advantages of IP basedsolutions are ecological.The need to pull expensive copper to each camera is reduced by using existing networkinfrastructure, Power over Ethernet (PoE) has removed the need for separate powersupplies to be used for each devise and encouraged camera manufacturers to considerlower power consumption models even PTZ Cameras. Ultimately systems will movestorage and software applications to hosted service providers, further reducing theneed for capital expenditure, expensive hardware and special air conditioned IT serverrooms but retaining the flexibility of the solution. The ecological and economicarguments are very strong and where voice over IP has gone, Video over IP will almostcertainly follow in 2009/10. This will further increase the penetration of the IT,Telecommunications and Networking industries into the physical security sector.Search out our Affiliate MembersAxis CommunicationsProvider of IP-based network video solutions (Sweden)www.axis.comMilestone SystemsDeveloper of open platform IP video management software.

IPfocusIt’s Time to Consider IPIP is here and it offers a myriad of benefits. But navigating the road to IP requires careful considerationof many factors, from network infrastructure to physical security needs.By Jeremy Kimber, EMEA Marketing Leader, Honeywell Systems GroupWhen it comes to new security installations, Internetprotocol (IP)-based systems are growing in prevalence asviable options alongside traditional analogue-basedapproaches. But how can one rationalize and navigate aswitch from analogue to IP — especially in light of tightbudgets, undecided industry standards and increasedscrutiny on new expenditures? The answer is complex,although one thing is certain: IP migration is not a matter ofif — it is simply a matter of when.Overall, industry research shows that the video surveillancemarket is approaching a tipping point, where the volumeand revenue of IP units will soon surpass analogue-basedsystems. And, as the market moves toward this point, theprice difference will fall, and the capabilities and benefits ofIP will only continue to grow.For quite some time, the proprietary nature of IP systemshas been a primary barrier to IP adoption, but the tide ischanging. In the past year, two industry groups — thePhysical Security Interoperability Alliance (PSIA) and theOpen Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF) — have eachemerged with the first versions of their IP systemspecifications. These specifications offer many potentialbenefits. In the case of PSIA, for example, the industrygroup’s standard aims to establish a primary protocolarchitecture not only for communication and compatibilitybetween IP-based cameras, but also with access, intrusionand building controls.Although market preference is for one agreed-uponstandard, this industry development helps further build thecase for IP adoption by making it easier than before andlaying a solid foundation for shifting to IP-based systems. Inlight of this inevitable shift, beginning a migration to IPbasedsystems is a necessary way to future-proof anorganization and prepare for when IP will be the dominantform of video. To what degree one should migrate to IP,however, is a question with many possible answers.The way to most effectively implement IP depends on theneeds of an organization and the depth to which anorganization is willing to go with an installation. As such,one must consider several factors when considering IP. Interms of pure pricing, the difference between analogue andIP is noticeable, with IP carrying a price premium in today’smarket. IP cameras offer many feature advantages, though,such as higher resolution images, multiple inputs, relayoutput and two-way audio, among others—features thatcan’t be supported by analogue video. IP also enablesintelligent video capabilities built right into a camera, suchas motion detection or people counting features.IP migration is not necessarily an either-or situation,however. It’s not simply a matter of deciding whether anorganization should make the full switch to IP or not. Insome cases, IP can wait. For example, if an organization iscompletely analogue-based and plans to install around thissystem occasionally, with infrequent upgrades, then stickingwith analogue might make sense for the time being. But26_issue 25hybrid solutions, which include a mix of IP and analoguebasedtechnology, are one way to begin migrating systemsto IP. In many cases, organizations can leverage existingnetwork infrastructure and cabling to install IP-basedsystems, so the installation cost can actually be lower thanexpected due to less cabling.In addition to lower costs, migrations can also be simplerthan initial expectations due to the IT infrastructure andexpertise in place for the vast majority of organizationstoday. If an organization has solid IT capabilities andknowledge in place, this network familiarity will makeinstalling IP systems fairly smooth. Overall, whether anorganization is looking to make a complete switch to IP orconsidering a hybrid approach, network accessibility iscritical.In making the transition to IP, it is also critical fororganizations to bridge any gaps that may exist between ITand physical security departments and to ensure both sidesare involved in all decisions and developments associatedwith IP installations. IP introduces new components andconsiderations for security personnel, including networking,which entails a new skill set not typically required oftraditional security groups. Additionally, the traditionalsecurity aspect is something IT personnel are not as wellversed in. Thus, buy-in and involvement from both sides—from planning and implementing to keeping the system upand running—is critical for IP migrations.Once an organization decides to take on an IP migration,the benefits become apparent. Moving to the network worldprovides greater storage freedom, since conventional ITtypes of storage systems are also capable of storing video.IP-based systems offer “edge intelligence,” and in additionto advanced recording and analytics, this provides simplephysical benefits, as well. These cameras reduce theamount of cabling and storage space typically required bytheir analogue counterparts. Because the cameras haveedge devices and recording solutions, no cabling is neededfor routing back to encoders and DVRs. Pushingfunctionality out to the cameras helps simply ease thephysical space problem commonly encountered withtraditional analogue-based systems.Consider the case of PTZ cameras, for example. IP-basedPTZ cameras offer advantages over analogue versions forseveral reasons. These cameras are complex systems, andin order to install an analogue dome, one would have to runanalogue, serial and power cables. With IP-based cameras,however, there is no need for different data and videocables. Thus, in addition to benefits including moreintegration and control capabilities, IP-based cameras canalso help alleviate space issues.In addition to taking up less space, IP-based systems arealso good options to consider for situations involvingremote access and security. A recent customer exampleproves just how beneficial IP can be. The company iscomprised of many geographically dispersed sites, and itsought to improve the physical security of these locations.To do so, the company installed a hybrid camera solutionthat combines with access control and intrusion. Thesystem processes analogue camera input, stores that datalocally and then provides a network interface that allowscompany personnel to remotely access camera units toquickly verify alarms.Of course, any time systems run on a network,organizations must make it a point to ensure the rightprecautions are in place to keep systems secure andrunning smoothly, and IP is no exception. Having the rightpeople in place with the necessary network knowledge —such as proper segmentation of the network to preventnetwork bottlenecks that can threaten system performance— is critical for IP-based systems. These individuals shouldbe well versed in how to properly manage devices over anetwork, as well.When it comes to system security, both IP and analoguebasedsystems each have their own sets of requirements.Because IP systems are housed on a network, the same ITsecurity technology and considerations must be applied.Incidentally, the threat of security breaches for either typeof system often comes down to a question of physicalsecurity. Individuals can easily hack into analogue systems,for example, by simply cutting cables and installing theproper connectors in order to get a video feed. Also, if alocation lacks proper physical security, network-basedsystems are also vulnerable, no matter how much networksecurity is in place. For example, one classic hacking caseinvolved a person simply picking a facility’s locks and thenstealing passwords, which enabled him to easily access anIP-based telephone network. Overall, organizations mustapply a complete and thorough approach to securingsystems, regardless of their analogue and IP-basedcomponents.The same is true when considering IP. One must take a lookat an IP-based approach from all angles, and consider howand where to apply it to meet an organization’s needs.Whether an organization is simply looking to dip its toe inthe IP pool and install one camera, or it’s looking to makethe full analogue-to-IP switch, realised value can be gleanedfrom each scenario — when IP is applied correctly, carefullyand strategically.Honeywell Systems GroupUnit 6 Aston Fields RoadWhitehouse Industrial EstateRuncorn.

IPfocusOn-the-RecordOn-the-Record; Richard White,Managing DirectorKane Computing Ltd (KCL)The latest in the series of interviews with those influencingthe future of security and surveillance technology. IPfocusquizzes those in the know and gains an insight into opinionsthat will be shaping the industry in the future.Q. How do you see the IP networking market developing in the short and longterm?A. IP networking is the new coax. Digital is the new analogue. It is everywhere,from TV transmission, personal cameras and consumer products. The use of IPnetworking for video security is taking off at a slower pace than these otherareas because of the existing analogue solutions and the same old concernsregarding 'different' technology and what new problems it can be bring. "Do Ialways need a PC? What about LAN broadwidth for normal stuff?"Q. Where is KANE COMPUTING’s place in the market?A. KCL's background is technology based with a knowledge of signal processingand video processing/compression for video security, broadcast, scientific andindustrial applications. We therefore understand what can be achieved andwhat cannot be achieved. We also understand what a customer needs andadvise on how their needs can be met.Q. What new plans does KANE COMPUTING have to help installers make the jump?A. We do not work with installers but can educate the system integrators and alsospecifiers to understand and request digital systems.Q. How can traditional security/CCTV/Access Control installers win contractsagainst IT integrators? What is the best piece of advice you could give?A. Installers, like anyone in this changing world have to be prepared to learn andadapt, so my advice would be 'if you can't beat them join them". There are twothings users need to see, firstly an understanding of their needs and then asolution that appears simple, effective and sensible. Installers have theexperience of the problems and needs and this is more important thantechnical knowledge if the supplier does not know how to apply it.Integrators are winning out over traditional installers because they areprepared to listen and learn from customers. Some installers have found it tooeasy to offer the traditional solutions in the past and maybe have their headsstuck in the sand.Q. Does KANE COMPUTING support the idea of independent consultantsrepresenting installers?A. I think installers need to talk to technical experts, such as KCL to understandthe options and the pros and cons of analogue and digital solutions.Q. Where does the UK and Europe sit with IP in regards to the rest of theworld? Is the UK CCTV and Access Control market too mature forwholesale IP penetration? And will IP penetration be mainly via hybrid,add-on systems in the UK? Is this the ideal way to start and will the restof the world follow?A. China, Japan etc accept new technologies far quicker than the UK and areprepared to change. The UK video security market is much moreestablished (saturated?) using analogue technology and so new (IPbased) systems are not as prevalent as in the past. Integration of IP withexisting analogue systems is happening more and more.Q. How long will it be before IP penetrates the access control and intruderalarm sectors in the same way as it has with CCTVA. The use of IP for integrated security systems including access control andintruder alarms is developing quickly and in some cases video can be anextra function to IP access control systems.Q. How do you see the role of the IP UserGroup and IPfocus developing inthe coming Months and Years?A. The IP User Group and IP Focus are doing an excellent job is educatingand bringing together users, suppliers, consultants and integrators toobtain a better knowledge and more confidence in IP.In the future perhaps the IP User Group should be rebranded to deemphasisethe "IP technology" and maybe re-emerge as the networkeddigital security and facilities group?About KANE COMPUTINGKCL (www.kanecomputing.co.uk) has been providing Image Processing, DSPand high performance computing products for use in industry, educationand research since 1987 and is a Texas Instruments Third Party Partnerspecialising in consultancy and advice on TI development tools/platformsand image processing applications.KCL have extensive knowledge and experience of providing videocompression solutions for many industries particularly for digital videosecurity and high quality broadcast applications.

The system offersairport-specific access control and can becustomised to meet the unique needs of eachairport. As the AC2000 AE system wasdeveloped with the needs of airports in mindit features airport-specific applicationsincluding card reader door modes such as‘Passenger’, ‘Trolley’ and ‘Airbridge’.The Delhi installation will have approximately3000 CEM S610 IP card readers making it oneof the largest IP systems in the region. Thesystem will include two variations of theadvanced S610 IP card readers; S610e andS610F fingerprint reader.The S610e card reader offers an on-board10/100Mbps Ethernet connection and internaldatabase for offline card validation, ensuringthat access control is provided even if thereader is offline from the host system. Thereader comes with a graphical LCD allowing alarge number of default or user configurablemessages to be displayed. These messagesprovide feedback to the cardholder on his orher card usage, eg. ‘Wrong Timezone’, ‘WrongAccess Level’ and ‘Card Expiring’. The displayalso provides information to the system user,e.g. airline staff, on which door mode the dooris operating; for example ‘Passenger Mode’where a member of airline staff uses his orher card to keep the door open for anextended period of time for arriving/departingpassengers.For the more security-critical areas, theairport has chosen the S610f fingerprintreader which combines a fingerprint reader,intelligent controller, and advanced IP cardreader in one powerful solution. The fullyintegrated biometric solution offered byAC2000 allows seamless integration byallowing the user to enrol a cardholder’sfingerprint template onto the AC2000 SEserver at the same time as capturing otherdetails such as personal information and aphotographic image.
