Banco do Nordeste do Brasil (BNB) is the largest regional development bank in Latin America. Its Administrative Center, in Fortaleza had an analog CCTV system. This was causing a loss of quality of the monitored images, which raised concern for the Executive Manager of the Bank Security Division of the Corporate Security Environment, Jose Boileau Esmeraldo Junior.
Through a public tender process, BNB purchased Axis network cameras, and had them installed by integrator Imagem Seguransa. The distributor Anixter organized the delivery of 25 AXIS Network Cameras with vandal-resistant housing, as well as 16 AXIS Network Cameras, two AXIS joysticks and one AXIS Video Encoder. In the acquisition phase, there are also 10 AXIS Network Cameras included. All this equipment is integrated with the Digifort Enterprise software.
The initial results were considered by Jose Boileau to be satisfactory, “particularly due to the gains in image quality and the ease of installation, besides enabling basic support to be carried out by internal network maintenance team.” In the Executive Manager's view, “the solution acquired by the Bank is in keeping with the latest market trends, which guarantees a prolonged useful life of the system, lower maintenance contracts, and flexibility of updating.”
