CCTV Center roadshows help visitors with IP technology
CCTV Center is celebrating the third successful seminar in its current series for installers, consultants, end users, specifiers and other invited guests. Ahead of the next event, which will place on 29th October near Huddersfield, delegates to the most recent seminar have been describing the benefits they gained from attending.
Guests attending the 1st October Roadshow, held at the Wiltshire Hotel near Swindon, gained an insight into IP technology and networks during a half-day training session, giving them an understanding of the terminology and considerations when working with IP surveillance solutions.
The seminar programme also covered topics including megapixel, Ethernet-over-fibre, Ethernet-over-coax, IP lighting, external detection and switch technology, giving delegates an insight into the technologies available and issues to consider when selecting equipment for IP projects.
Technical experts from CCTV Center – the Panasonic Systems Distributor for the UK & Eire – demonstrated Panasonic’s exciting new equipment. The Roadshow visitors also gained an insight into complementary solutions from CCTV Center’s Technology Partners Pentax, Raytec, Optex, KBC Networks, Teleprecision, Zyxel, See Tec, TOA, Veracity and iWatch – all of whom were on-hand to demonstrate their equipment and services.
First-hand feedback
Simon Herbert, Director of ACL CamCom, a specialist CCTV company operating in Devon, said the seminar had attracted him as an opportunity to get fully up to speed with IP: “Previously, IP technology didn’t seem to offer enough advantages to justify the investment over analogue equipment but the price difference has now closed to within striking distance and we’re now starting to actively quote IP systems to customers.
“We are now more likely to be tendering against IT companies as well as CCTV companies. We therefore have to understand what our competitors may be offering and come up with the best solution. On larger systems IP is now much more likely to be the preferred option due to the reduction in installation costs and significant improvement in picture quality. I’m pleased I came today, even though I attended an IP training course earlier this year – you always learn something new from an event like this.”
ACL CamCom designs and installs surveillance systems and has completed over 2000 installations to date in Devon, Cornwall and further afield for a range of commercial and industrial clients.
Meanwhile, Philip Moore, a London-based independent security consultant, said he’d benefited from the seminar: “I’m interested in IP technology because it’s the market’s future. Even though there’s a lot of analogue kit still being sold I need to know all about IP because of the advantages it offers customers. There are so many variants with CCTV and a big range in price that can be confusing for them. This seminar has so many knowledgeable speakers, which is just what I need to inform clients about IP system strengths.”
CCTV Center’s next seminar takes place at the Holiday Inn Leeds Brighouse on 29th October and registration for the event is via www.cctvcenter.com.
Delegates will be able to get up close to Panasonic equipment including the Super Dynamic 5 and 3-Megapixel IP cameras, along with a brand new digital video recorder and the company’s latest HD616 digital video recorder.
