The client commissioned UNIMAX to equip a Duty Free shop and a warehouse with a video surveillance system with point of sale monitoring and the capability for remote monitoring. The shop and warehouse are on the territory of Ostafyevo International Airport and are quite far apart.
Considering the specific character of the task, only an IP video surveillance system would do. Communication lines and an Ethernet connection between the warehouse and the shop were already in place. Under these conditions, it was not practical to run new lines between the warehouse and the shop, among other things due to the large number of approvals needed and the complex work conditions.
For IP cameras, several models from Axis were selected: the Axis for general video surveillance, the Axis with megapixel resolution for surveillance at the register, and the Axis for outdoor video surveillance. All the current Axis cameras are powered through PoE, which substantially simplifies installation for the installer and makes it less expensive for the client; it also makes it possible to control the power supply of the device remotely.
In the end the client obtained a modern video surveillance and point of sale monitoring system which takes care of the tasks currently required and can be expanded and modernized in the future. Remote monitoring from the central office in Domodedovo Airport makes it possible to quickly obtain data from a remote site and monitor the situation constantly.
