IP CCTV Surveillance System at Ascendas Blue Ridge SEZ

Blue Ridge is an international 2.6 million sq. ft. Special Economic Zone (SEZ) project with an integrated township. It is located in the Silicon Valley of Pune-Hinjewadi. The builders association of India has awarded the Blueridge SEZ as the most ’Well Equipped & Mechanized Site’ in the well-built structure competition. The main aim of the project was to help in protecting the people living and working inside the building and to monitor the activity of the people or the visitors movement in premises of the building for security purposes such as preventing crime, preventing theft, spotting vandalism, spotting accidents and fires. Thus, installing a CCTV system reduces the security guards manpower and monitoring and recording the activities at multiple location from one place is more convenient.

Requirement was to monitor the tower premises for any suspicious activity and to record any such activity if it takes place as evidence. Client also required a system for recording and viewing of all footage from the cameras.

This requirement was understood by our engineers at Techbean and visited site for thorough designing of the system. This designing was done after considering the fact of vandalism towards the system and ease of maintenance of the system.

• Full High Definition Video Output of the cameras for clear viewing.
• 20/40 ft IR distance for dome/bullet for viewing in low light.
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) cameras are used to eliminate the need of 2 separate wired connection for data and power.
• The network cameras (IP cameras) can be accessed individually from anywhere.
• Cameras have an inbuilt SD card storage facility so a standalone camera recording without the need of NVR is also possible.
• The NVR employs a linux based OS, so it is very stable and is immune to virus attack and has very good support for 3rd party integration.
• Easy to use and user-friendly operating software and can support unlimited users.
• NVR has an internal power supply for seamless operation in case of power supply failure.

Vivotek Cameras were chosen as it had a peerless video length to file size ratio. NuuoâA˘Zs´ Crystal Titan NVR is used as it has the best value for money than any other recording systems of different make in this category.

Following are the salient features of the whole system:

• Full High Definition Video Output of the cameras for clear viewing 20/40 ft IR distance for dome/bullet for viewing in low light.
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) cameras are used to eliminate the need of 2 separate wired connection for data and power.

In Handover process of CCTV Surveillance System, the whole system was demonstrated for monitoring and exporting the recorded footage from the camera. All agreed features on CCTV Surveillance System were tested in the presence of site in charge. Subsequently the engineering and services team were trained for all features of CCTV Surveillance System. This training session was basically a practical hands-on session of Surveillance System with maximum interaction from client side.

Handover document was submitted to the customer, it includes the detailed logic description of all systems, system architecture and layout, SLD, operation & maintenance manual, supplier & service center details and Escalation list of service team.
