3G / GSM Video Transmission
The ability to rapidly deploy discrete video surveillance and recording equipment into known trouble spots is increasingly being seen as a cost-effective way of countering crime.
ClearView Communications' range of Re-deployable CCTV camera systems capable of taking advantage of the increasingly wide range of transmission methods available today. By providing a variety of transmission options - including mobile 3G, GSM, HSCDS and Wireless IP, the systems can transmit pictures without the need for a fixed telephone line. Connection and download speeds range from 1 fps (GSM), to real-time 50 fps @ 4 CIF (Wireless IP).
The most appropriate transmission method can be chosen to suit the application—depending on mobile phone transmission coverage and geographical considerations (e.g. Line-of-Sight).
All systems have a fixed IP address, up to 320Gb on-board removable hard disc drive and wall/lamp post fixing brackets. They can be easily and rapidly deployed - all that is required is 240VAC mains power or battery.
The colour/mono auto-focus camera is able to provide high resolution (540 TVL) images in the lowest light levels (0.075 lux). As well as dialing in remotely to view live and recorded images, full telemetry PTZ control of the dome camera is available from standard internet connected PCs.
Crime prevention officers, local authorities, developers and housing associations are currently using the system for a variety of applications including vandalism, graffiti, theft, fly-tipping and anti-social behaviour.
Mobile networks
Mobile phone networks used by ClearView offer both National and Global footprints which means that you can access live and recorded images from anywhere in the world without the need for a fixed line infrastructure. Transmission options include:
GSM
GSM is the dominant digital mobile phone standard for most of the world. It is available in over 180 countries.
HSCSD
HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switch Data) is a mobile phone transmission system which allows data connections at up to 28.8k per second. It is a high speed GSM technology and is available in over 35 countries.
3G
3G stands for "Third Generation", a wireless industry term for high-speed mobile data delivery over cellular networks. Where 3G is unavailable, ClearView's systems can automatically switch to GPRS to maintain transmission.
Mobile phone based transmission systems remove the need for a ‘line of sight' required by many other forms of wireless CCTV.
