VIVOTEK cameras safeguard Arvaikheer City, Mongolia

Arvaikheer City is a provincial capital situated in the center of Mongolia. The city has seen a slow but steady growth in population over the last few years, and the government responded by putting forth an initiative to equip Arvaihkeer with a new public safety surveillance system. VIVOTEK, working together with the local distributor ITZONE LLC., answered the call by outfitting many of the streets and public areas of Arvaihkeer with a strong line of security cameras perfectly fitted for the job.

The camera system had to cover a very expansive area of Arvaikheer city. A bigger challenge in the project, however, was the local environmental conditions. Given the bone-chilling absolute lows and sultry highs, VIVOTEK was required to provide cameras that could function in the harshest of environments. In addition to the extreme temperature range, winds can reach speeds of above 90km/h, meaning the elements were sure to put VIVOTEK's equipment to the test.

74 VIVOTEK network cameras were installed across two main areas: one for monitoring public activities and the other for monitoring roads and traffic. In order to withstand the harsh environment, 14 units of the most durable cameras models were installed, including the SD8362E and SD8323E outdoor PTZ models. These cameras feature IP66 rated housing and extreme weatherproof housing. In addition to being durable, the SD8362E model boasts a very high frame rate up to 60 fps while the SD8323 has a very impressive optic zoom capability of up to 36 times. The IP8362 bullet model comprised the remaining 60 cameras, being capable of producing high resolution and high quality video in low light conditions thanks to the WDR Enhancement technology, removable IR-cut filter, and built-in IR-illuminator.
