| IndigoVision was recommended because of its superior video quality and excellent compression technology |
IndigoVision’s integrated IP-CCTV solution is helping to dramatically reduce crime in the suburbs of Johannesburg, South Africa, through an innovative security initiative. CSS Tactical, a company that provides mobile security patrols, is breaking new ground with the delivery of security services in South Africa by integrating CCTV surveillance with its area patrols.
IndigoVision’s solution with superior video quality
CSS Tactical’s main requirement was for wireless video footage to be transmitted from strategically placed CCTV cameras back to a remote central control room. Scalability and bandwidth usage were other very important factors in the choice of a CCTV system. As the new initiative was likely to attract many new customers for CSS, the system had to be easily and quickly expandable, in order that they could maintain their high service levels. Low bandwidth requirement was also important, as this is a limiting factor in South Africa.
CSS partnered with a local IT company, Parallel Technologies, who recommended IndigoVision’s solution (distributed in Africa by Norbain), because of its superior video quality and excellent compression technology. This ensures low bandwidth usage and provides the very best evidential quality video to assist in convictions. The installation of the first phase of the project, which covers the Dunkeld area, was so successful that CSS will soon be implementing the system in the Hyde Park, Greenside and Emmarentia suburbs.
