Shannon Airport

Each group needed to access the system for different reasons at different places and all at the same time.

The new system had to be highly flexible and capable of growing with the airport. It also needed to deliver significant cost savings and organisational benefits.

Re-use of existing camera hardware and much of the airport’s existing cabling infrastructure were key in keeping installation and hardware costs down.

Shannon Airport required very high performance in the new system including the ability to capture live images at state of the art resolution. It also required a user-friendly interface for all staff to view, play back and operate the system.

The scope of the contract was for:

       Supply & Installation of IP recording and control hardware in a client / server design with multiple video management servers, Network Video Recorders and sufficient storage on Network Attached Storage devices (NAS) for all camera feeds for 30 days minimum at a continuous D1 resolution and 25 frames per second recording configuration.

Integration of 160 existing analogue cameras (fixed and PTZ) and conversion to IP via video encoders.

Supply and installation of additional quantity of 45 IP PTZ dome cameras.
