A key decision-making factor when purchasing a product, regardless of its segment, is that most consumers prioritize assessing its quality and durability.
In CCTV projects focused on perimeter monitoring and security, this concern is amplified. Beyond ensuring a durable product to reduce technical issues and equipment replacements, it’s also essential to address potential vandalism that could harm the surveillance system.
What can help mitigate this problem?
Integrators use several best practices to minimize the likelihood of future attacks on the CCTV security network, including:
- Installing cameras in high, out-of-reach locations to deter any unwanted interference;
- Using specialized equipment for environments requiring enhanced protection, such as cabinets rated IK09 or IK10;
- Hiding all wiring in protected areas to prevent signal transmission issues from improper handling;
- Acquiring vandalism-certified cameras.
Vandalism-resistant cameras
To assist with advanced anti-vandalism projects, we recommend several IP camera models from Axis. The CCTV company subjected its equipment to rigorous tests beyond standard industry norms, including IK09 and IK10.
All test results are available to the public on the company’s website. Check the link below:
Anti-vandalism models from the M series
- M3044-V (IP Camera, Dome, Fixed, Indoor, HDTV, and vandalism-resistant)
- M3105-LVE (IP Camera, Dome, Fixed, with Infrared, Outdoor, FullHD, and vandalism-resistant)
- M3046-V (IP Camera, Dome, Fixed, Indoor, 4MP FullHD, and vandalism-resistant)
Anti-vandalism models from the intermediate P series
- P3364-LVE (IP Camera, Dome, Fixed, with Infrared, Outdoor, HDTV, and vandalism-resistant)
- P3227-LVE (IP Camera, Dome, Fixed, with Infrared, Outdoor, 5MP FullHD, and vandalism-resistant)
Anti-vandalism models from the advanced Q series
- Q3709-PVE (IP Camera, Dome, Panoramic & Multi-Sensor, Outdoor, 4K UHD, and vandalism-resistant)
- Q3615-VE (IP Camera, Dome, Fixed, Outdoor, FullHD, and vandalism-resistant)
Combining vandalism-resistant camera models with the best practices recommended by integrators can result in a secure project with minimal maintenance and losses, particularly in high-risk situations.
