Using Wireless for CCTV Backhaul t: 0333 1212 100 w: www.purdi.com e: [email protected]Effective Backhaul: Capacity, Security, Affordability & Scalability Town centres, business parks, emergency services, schools and councils are increasingly pressured to deploy next generation CCTV networks to protect & safeguard property and, more importantly, people. With these new demands, new issues and challenges arise for CCTV network operators who are forced into a difficult trade off between price vs. security, quality and reliability, often having to sacrifice one for another. Capacity: HD Video Needs HD Backhaul CCTV has come a long way from the earliest known use stemming from Germany in 1942 used to monitor the testing of rockets consisting of a simple camera to monitor system with no recording. VCR recording succeeded this in the 1980’s followed by the digital age in the early 2000’s which saw the VCR replaced by the DVR recording onto a hard drive rapidly boosting the amount of video that could be recorded. CCTV installers have kept to analogue for as long as possible due to tradition and fear of IP, but now with HD video quality and anytime cloud access becoming the de-facto standards, a new generation of CCTV installers are winning many of the contracts with IP previously held by analogue. For an IP, HD and cloud based CCTV network, a reliable backhaul method is paramount to delivering patch-less footage to the NVR. Fibre, of course, is preferable however as discussed later in this whitepaper is often not simple or cost effective to deploy. Using proprietry wireless backhaul technology specifically engineered for CCTV ensures that an installer gets the financial benfits of a wireless system without comprimising on quality still achieving fibre performance”
