Building an Enterprise Class Surveillance System
Do it yourself:
Joel WilbanksInformation Systems DirectorCraighead County Sheriff’s Department and Detention Center
Agenda
• Why?• Budget • Timeline• Requirements• Construction• What’s Next?• Advice• Question
Why build surveillance
• Safety of all occupants is the primary goal of a detention facility.
• It serves as an unbiased witness to all events so that justice can better be served
Why did we do it in-house
• Knowledge that the requirements were grater then our funding
• If the cost was not within our budget then the project would have been halted
Building it ourselves
Advantages:• Our timetable• We understand our needs
better then anyone• 24/7/365 support is inherent• We have total control
Built by a vendor
Disadvantages:• Would not have used Pelco:
– Less scalability– Disparate control and
integration• Would not have been installed
the way we wanted it.• Security concerns• Additional cost
Budget
Requested by vendor $380,000
Approved budget $120,000
Difference $260,000
Other funds $40,000
Total Savings $220,000

Requirements
• Replacement of all coax cable with CAT5e to a central location
• Central primary control– Department based control– Independent from recording system
• Remote computer control– Web, desktop, PDA
• Digital Video Recorder– Appliance based– Audio recording
• Extreme Upgradeability• High availability (24x7)
CCTV vs. IP
• Why was an IP solution not considered?– At the time IP was in it’s infancy
and did not offer the scalability required on our budget
– Reuse of current hardware
• But the integration and migration to an IP solution was planned

Construction – Cameras
• Create a map of your facility and what direction the cameras should be facing for the desired view
• Measure the actual dimensions of each view to calculate the lenses required– http://
www.pelco.com/support/tools/lenscalc.aspx
Cameras
• Pan, Tilt, Zoom (PTZ)– 4 programmable patterns with
8 zones within the camera– 23 x optical and 10 x digital
zoom– Window Blanking
• Stationary– Explosion proof enclosures– High resolution
System resilience
• Power failure– All circuits are wired to the on-
site generator– Network, clients, and
surveillance system have battery backup for a max of 2hrs
• Device failure– If the matrix hardware fails then
the DVRs will still record• 6 Weeks of archived video
(~2.4TB)
Pelco support
• 100% satisfaction guaranteed!
• Less then 1 min on hold at anytime for any product without a contract
• The most helpful and knowledgeable support I have ever had the pleasure of receiving
What’s Next?
• Convergence of CCTV and IP technologies– Allows for the monitoring of remote
substations across the county• Addition of night vision PTZ
cameras on the perimeter with 1 strand fiber
• Implementation of a microcontroller for emergency recording
• Addition of 2 subsections for a total of 122 cameras
Advice
• Clear about 4 months off your calendar if you are ambitious enough to do this by yourself
• Use 3 part crimp-on BNC connectors for your jumper cables (~$2 ea.)
• Use a uniform color for your cabling
• Make sure the shipper closed the door to his truck
• Use patch panels with punch down blocks
