Video SurveilanceAs the demand for wireless security surveillance continues to expand, service providers and systems integrators will increasingly be asked to provide cost effective, reliable solutions that support a vast array of operating conditions and environments. Addressing a reliable wireless video surveilance solution can be a fairly complex task.
When it comes to remote video camera systems, bandwidth is a key concern as most tend to be very bandwidth-intensive. Therefore, the wireless network needs to have sufficient throughput, bandwidth management capability and a Quality of Service (QoS) feature to ensure that image quality is adequate for surveillance while not compromising the traffic of other data.

For surveillance in remote areas, power requirements can pose a problem. A surveillance video camera and wireless CPE combination, which can be used together with solar panels, batteries or both, is suitable for such deployments. The airPPoint series from smartBridges has one of the lowest power requirements among wireless devices and is ruggedly designed for outdoor deployments. It can be combined with a WAN or even a satellite backbone.

can work well on power from solar panels or batteries
