Dahua Updates Security at West Midlands Site

  Dahua Technology has recently announced that a compressive video surveillance solution consisting of 96 cameras from Dahua Technology UK is being installed at the striking Fort Dunlop commercial and retail site, overlooking the M6 motorway in Birmingham.   Built for Dunlop Rubber, Fort Dunlop became the tyre-maker’s flagship production facility and at one time was the world’s largest factory, employing 3,200 workers. After production stopped in the 1980s, the building lay derelict before being redeveloped into 360,000 square feet of office and retail space, and also now with an adjoining hotel. Much of the site’s previous video surveillance system was installed during the refurbishment in 2006, but with advances in modern technology, it was felt that the current system was no longer meeting basic requirements. An external consultant assessed the site and put forward plans for an upgrade. Bromsgrove based Champion Security Installations won the bid for the upgrade project. Installed over two phases, the design consists of a total of 96 static and PTZ cameras from full HD to 4K resolutions. Cameras include the 12MP panoramic internal IPC-EBW81230 fisheye camera, which uses H.265/ H.264 triplestream encoding, and the external panoramic IPCPDBW8802 dome camera, with four 2-Megapixel progressive scan CMOS sensors and day/ night functionality. Images are managed and recorded by a 128-channel, ultra 4K NVR616 network video recorder. “Having undertaken a full review of the security systems at Fort Dunlop, it became clear that a replacement CCTV system was required to ensure protection of the staff, visitors and building. Three different options were presented by contractors, but it quickly became clear that the Dahua system presented by Champion Security met our brief. The system installed has changed the way we monitor and protect our asset, and its ease of use has been a revelation to our site staff,” said a spokesperson from Savills. A spokesperson from Champion Security Installations added, “We have worked with the management of Fort Dunlop for a number of years now, so we designed the new IP CCTV system in consultation with them. The aim was to meet all of the different security, health and safety criteria, as well as ensure ease of use for the operators. Having installed Dahua equipment at a number of sites, we invited them to assist with the design of the Fort Dunlop system using a number of their new products. Working in conjunction with Dahua and Oprema Ltd, the project was delivered on time and within budget.”

COM-SUR Helping CXOs Achieve Optimal Benefits from CCTV

CCTV cameras are increasing in number across the world but there are yet question marks – if crime is going down, or if the people are able to recover better ROI from their investments in CCTV, or if there is a better compliance and so on. The fact is that CCTV has become just a ‘fit and forget,’ but if users take just a few extra recommended steps, they will achieve far more benefits. The unfortunate incident that took place at Ryan school in Gurgaon has been a shocking experience. It is yet shocking to know even after that, there have been over 160 reported incidents across schools in India – 18 of which are deaths, 7 suicides, over 70 molestation cases, and even 2 cases of leopard intrusions. All these schools had one thing in common, and that is CCTV cameras. So, fundamentally there is something wrong in the way the world is using CCTV, or rather not using CCTV to its fullest potential. After the unfortunate Gurgaon incident, every authority suggests to increase cameras, but needs to be considered if just the installations thereof are enough. Team COM-SUR is reaching out to business leaders to make them understand that any organization that uses CCTV cameras can achieve lots of value from CCTV surveillance by adopting a few simple SOPs in terms of CCTV video footage auditing, smart backup and intelligent reporting software. Gautam Goradia, the creator of COM-SUR is taking personal interest and looking to deliberate with organizations and their CXOs about how their organizations can benefit from this new angle of auditing CCTV video footage as a SOP, save costs of storage and bandwidth, and gain business intelligence from standardized reporting.
