IP VIDEO SURVEILLANCE
Commercial Video Surveillance Solutions
SecSys designs, integrates, programs, and supports IP video surveillance systems for commercial, industrial, and multi-residential properties.
A reliable surveillance system requires more than installing cameras. Camera placement, image quality, lighting, network design, storage, permissions, remote access, cybersecurity, and maintenance must be considered as one solution.
SYSTEM DESIGN & PLANNING
Professionally Designed Video Systems
SecSys evaluates property layout, critical areas, indoor and outdoor conditions, lighting, identification requirements, recording retention, available network infrastructure, remote access, future expansion, and operational priorities.

CAMERA DESIGN & COVERAGE
Camera Placement and Coverage
Camera quantity alone does not determine system effectiveness. Each view should have a defined purpose, such as observation, activity monitoring, vehicle coverage, or identification.
Typical locations include entrances, lobbies, elevators, landings, hallways, stairwells, parking garages, vehicle entrances, loading areas, perimeters, common areas, storage rooms, service areas, transaction areas, and
restricted spaces.
NVR, VMS & VIDEO RETENTION
Recording Platforms and Storage
SecSys can configure NVRs and video management systems for multi-site viewing, centralized management, recording schedules, event-based recording, camera groups, user permissions, exports, notifications, storage
management, and health monitoring.
Storage planning must consider camera count, resolution, frame rate, bit rate, compression, activity, schedule, retention, and redundancy.
SecSys can assess missing recordings, insufficient retention, hard-drive failures, recording interruptions, disk errors, incorrect overwrite settings, and excessive bandwidth or storage use.
VIDEO SYSTEM OPERATIONS
Infrastructure, Access & Analytics
Network Infrastructure
A complete video system may include managed PoE switching, dedicated surveillance VLANs, fibre or copper uplinks, point-to-point wireless, racks, patch panels, surge protection, remote connectivity, bandwidth management, and backup power.
Video Analytics
Where supported and appropriate, systems may include human and vehicle classification, line crossing, intrusion areas, people counting, vehicle detection, licence-plate recognition, object search, event notifications, smart search, and occupancy functions.
Analytics must support a clearly defined operational purpose and must not replace appropriate camera placement, lighting, recording, or human review.
Remote Viewing and User Management
- Local and remote access
- Desktop and mobile applications
- Role-based permissions
- Camera-specific and multi-site access
- Secure password policies
- Administrative controls
- Playback and export permissions
CONNECTED SECURITY SYSTEMS
System Integration
Video can be associated with access events, door-forced-open conditions, door-held-open events, intercom calls, visitor entry, elevators, garages, gates, and other building events when the selected systems support integration.
EXISTING SYSTEMS & SUPPORT
Existing-System Assessment & Troubleshooting
SecSys can review camera positioning, image quality, night performance, recording reliability, storage and drive health, network and PoE conditions, remote access, permissions, firmware, system security, backups, capacity, and compatibility.
Typical problems include offline or intermittent cameras, poor images, night-vision issues, missing recording, storage errors, PoE failures, network problems, remote-viewing failures, user-access problems, incorrect settings, and firmware compatibility.

A COMPLETE VIDEO SYSTEM
More Than Camera Installation
A surveillance system is useful only when it produces reliable, accessible, and properly recorded video when it is needed.
