Massachusetts College boasts a secure environment thanks to Hikvision's CCTV surveillance solutions
Massasoit Community College caters to over 7,000 students. The institution is one of the largest community educational establishments within the Massachusetts Public Higher Education system and offers a variety of degree courses in vocational disciplines and the liberal arts as well as part-time programmes.
Challenge
Local integrator SoundBytes Security were charged with creating a 100-camera surveillance system that would contribute to the safety of students and faculty members across the college's two sites, the 100-acre Brockton Campus and an 18-acre complex known as Canton in the Blue Hills area south of Boston. The end-user requested the ability to monitor live video as well as inspect footage retrospectively as far back as a calendar month at high frame rates. The storage implications of keeping this amount of data were significant and the nature of the site also necessitated use of Power over Ethernet (POE).
SolutionSoundBytes chose two dome camera models from the Hikvisionrange together with the company's DVRs which the integrator has custom-assembled. At interior locations the college is benefiting from Hikvision's mini PTZ speed dome cameras which have been installed at facilities including laboratories, computer centres, theatres, media studies studios and major hubs such as the library, refectory and gymnasium.
