Video Security Network

Keeping remote areas and assets secure is a primary concern for municipal utilities.  Remote substations can be subject to tampering, vandalism, or terrorism.  Storage yards require security for theft prevention.  And employee safety at main offices and campuses presents an additional security concern.

Video surveillance provides real-time monitoring of remote facilities and equipment but connectivity to very remote cameras can be challenging and expensive.  Trilliant’s SecureMesh® Wide Area Network (WAN) solution delivers the performance required for video surveillance applications.  With the SecureMesh WAN, deploying a video surveillance solution can take just a few days at a fraction of the cost of alternative IP video solutions.

The versatility, scalability and performance of a SecureMesh WAN make it ideal for video surveillance applications. Without the need for backhaul wiring, video surveillance cameras can be deployed virtually anywhere throughout a service territory.  The broadband mesh has the throughput and scalability required to handle numerous cameras.  As a self-forming, self-healing mesh network, it automatically creates multiple paths among the many nodes to ensure mission-critical reliability.

Unlike point-to-point and point-to-multipoint topologies, the superior Non-Line-Of-Sight (NLOS) coverage allows the SecureMesh network to operate de­pendably and affordably in even the most challenging rural environments. Where required, the extended range of the SecureMesh solution (up to 10 miles) allows cameras to be placed in areas well beyond the reach of most other wireless systems.

In a typical deployment, the SecureMesh network backhauls video feeds from the many digital cameras to a centralized location where scenes can be monitored in real-time and recorded on specialized video servers. At any location requiring a camera, a mesh node is installed to attach the camera us­ing a short Ethernet cable.

The SecureMesh WAN is a cost-effective solution to video surveillance that covers sprawling territories, allowing virtually any site to be monitored to ensure safety and security.
