New security video surveillance technology now available
Network access specialist, The Kenton Group, has today announced the availability of a new wireless video surveillance transmission system that is ideally suited to rural locations, and comes at a time when the UK countryside is facing a crime wave showing a 37% increase[1].
Over 500,000 crimes were committed in rural areas in the UK within a six month period in 2011[2] – much of this occurring in isolated areas where conventional security is both challenging and expensive.
Kenton’s adoption of the RADWIN 2000 wireless broadband radios provides a complete end-to-end wireless transmission network for security and surveillance applications, delivering high throughput, quality video transmission and advanced network capabilities. This means that farmers, rural business owners and individual householders can monitor their property and livestock on a 24x7 basis and effectively respond to potential crime in their area.
“Policing, particularly in these tough economic times, is always going to be a challenge in rural areas so the RADWIN 2000 can help give peace of mind to people who now have real worries about crime on their doorstep,” said Kenton Group Managing Director John Larkin.
“This is an excellent example of how telecommunications technology is helping people’s lives – wherever they live and work. I am delighted to be able to make the RADWIN 2000 solution available to our customers.”
The RADWIN 2000 portfolio offers licensed and license-exempt wireless broadband products that incorporate advanced features to fit the exact needs of each customer. RADWIN 2000 solutions can be deployed in various topologies, including its unique Multiple Point-to-Point topology (MPtP) where up to 16 units can be deployed in a single site, with each link delivering dedicated capacity to a remote site.
The Kenton Group is recognised as a leading player in developing advanced broadband solutions – particularly in terms of delivering broadband to rural areas faced with major bandwidth challenges.
