Wireless Webcasts

Paul Koebbe - National Market Manager, Graybar

Description: This presentation will examine the advantages of utilizing structured cabling systems in conjunction with the installation of CCTV systems. Using unshielded twisted pair (UTP), and/or optical fiber cabling either as components of the IT communications network or independently, positions an installation for future growth. Understanding the basic elements of a structured cabling system and the current trend toward Internet Protocol (IP) compatible security devices will result in the long-term advantages to them and the end user - their customer. Covering areas such as: UTP cables, TIA guidelines for IP networks, analog video on UTP, power (local and distributed), and control signal management for the camera circuit.

Wireless Mesh for Video-surveillance Applications

Umberto Malesci - President, Fluidmesh Networks, Inc.

Description: Wireless mesh is a powerful concept that allows a brand new approach in the design and implementation of wireless CCTV systems. Mesh-based wireless video-surveillance systems offer incredible advantages in terms of flexibility and reliability compared to traditional point-to-point and point-to-multipoint solutions. In a mesh network every transmitter has "intelligent" transmission capabilities not present in traditional Wi-Fi or HiperLAN devices. Based on advanced mesh networking algorithms, every unit in a mesh network optimizes transmission through the optimal path, performing "intelligent" routing of packets in real time. This presentation will provide the basis to successfully design mesh-based wireless video-surveillance systems.
