Cisco

Wireless Video Surveillance: Improving Operations

and Security

What You Will Learn

Today’s organizations need flexible, intelligent systems to help protect people and assets as well

as streamline business operations. The Cisco

Wireless Video Surveillance solution allows

organizations to utilize their mobility infrastructure to install surveillance tools, such as wireless

video surveillance cameras, on demand wherever there is wireless coverage.

The flexibility provided by the Cisco

Wireless Video Surveillance Solution provides

organizations with:

●

Improved video surveillance coverage where cable placement is difficult

●

Support for ad-hoc or temporary monitoring of locations

●

Support for integration with specialized video surveillance and mobility services applications

for improved operations and intelligence.

Challenge

Organizations face a variety of physical security challenges. They must address liability obligations

for the people within their organization, including employees, contractors, customers, and guests.

They must work to prevent loss of property and limit the cost of asset loss to the organization.

They must also be able to respond to threats and emergencies, whether these events manifest as

campus crime or a medical crisis.

Traditionally, organizations have employed video surveillance as a tool to help address their

security challenges. Analog surveillance systems provided a base level of functionality to monitor

large areas from a central location without the need to maintain a personal presence. These

systems could also use recorded video as an historical account of events that occurred.

While analog systems delivered surveillance coverage, they came with the additional capital and

operational expense of maintaining a separate physical cabling plant (generally coaxial cable) and

recording system. Costs also increased because this infrastructure was often available only

through single-vendor solutions. Also, these systems didn’t support using video analytics to add

intelligence to the surveillance.

Today, organizations are moving to IP-based video systems to deliver video surveillance over a

common infrastructure (IP networks) in a low-cost, interoperable manner. These IP-based

solutions support using analytics software to add intelligence to the video surveillance system.

They also deliver lower capital and operational expenses by consolidating in a unified cabling

plant. IP-based solutions also allow video to be more flexibly delivered, not only to surveillance

applications but any application that is based on an IP platform.

The challenges associated with both analog and IP-based video surveillance solutions include

the following:

●

Lack of pervasive coverage: Analog and IP video surveillance systems rely solely on wired

cameras, which requires either CCTV or Ethernet cabling to be run to each camera. This
