Jun 3, 2007 by Nathan SwartzBy Proxim
In the post 9/11 world, terrorism, law enforcement, border patrol, public safety and monitoring challenges have forced government organizations and enterprises worldwide to elevate security and surveillance to a top priority. These challenges have manifested as significant growth in the video surveillance market which in turn has created a huge opportunity for system integrators, equipment manufacturers, software vendors and chip companies to compress, capture, transport and archive these large amounts of video traffic. Technology advances in video, wireless and software now make it possible to use cost-effective fixed and mobile wireless solutions for comprehensive security and surveillance applications.
This white paper provides an overview of the market drivers for security and surveillance applications, the benefits of wireless solutions, deployment considerations and also presents an overview of Proxim’s carrier grade wireless solutions to acquire, transport, record, and analyze video applications.
