Yesterday Bill, John and I put together 5 cameras. I’ve been out sick, so mostly They put them together and I ‘helped’. These new cameras will replace the last of the CCTV (older technology) cameras on campus – primarily the Parking Lot cameras. The new cameras are all IP-based with little enclosures and mini heaters. It’s a pretty nice setup.
Anyway, so yesterday we set all those up, and that was a pretty good success. We had to do some wire splicing and manually wire a few things, but all is well. Now whenever Telecom gets the chance, we can test them out. Once everything’s in good shape, Public Safety can get rid of it’s huge rack of VCR recorders, etc… Our campus will be on one type of technology with one set of recording hardware. Simplicity and technology – it’s a beautiful thing.
