Located in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is the new headquarters of Jablotron Alarms, a.s - one of the country's largest security firms. A number of Hikvision products were chosen to protect both Jablotron's reputation and its new building.
Hikvision Cameras ... Inside
"Jablotron's overall goal was to design a high-quality CCTV system, but one that was easy to operate. We put a great deal of emphasis on the ability to obtain clear, quality, pictures in both day and night environments; as well the ability to view them live or by recording," explained Martin Svoboda, Operational Director at Jablotron.
The guts, so to speak, of this CCTV system was a quartet of Hikvision cameras: the DS-2DF1-514 5" Network High Speed Dome, DS-2CD8253F-EI IR Bullet Network Camera, DS-2CD764F-E 1.3 MP Network Dome Camera, and the DS-2DF1-402 4” Network High Speed Dome.
Internally, main entrances, as well as emergency exits were deemed areas that needed coverage. Additionally, hallways, various office space, and security management rooms were designated as requiring additional security.
Primarily tasked with this effort was Hikvision's DS-2CD764F-E 1.3 MP Network Dome Camera. "We found this unit to be particularly good in areas such as receiving, as well as other office space. We are really able to see, in great detail, what is important," noted Mr. Svoboda.
Features, such as up-to 1.3 megapixel (1280 x 960) resolution and HD720P real time video, allow the DS-2CD764F-E to successfully achieve this goal. Located in the server room is the DS-2DF1-402 4” Network High Speed Dome. This camera was specifically chosen because of its 360° endless pan range. It was also put on a 24-hour scan feature to better visually patrol the area. This Hikvision model allows IP - both inside headquarters, as well as those outside (by remote viewing) - to keep constant vigil over this highly-important room.
... and Out
While on the exterior, Hikvision's DS-2DF1-514 5" Network High Speed Dome mans the roof. Obviously, an IP66 rating is critical to this camera being able to do its job in hot European summers and brutally cold winters. Also, due to the area this camera resides - the roof - it is vital to zoom on any potential threats. A 23x zoom provides this, while a 360° endless pan range and -5°-185° tilt range gives the ability to quickly follow any item of interest. Interestingly, "We really liked this camera, and purchased an extra unit just in case of any emergency situation," added Mr. Svoboda.
Placed liberally along the external facade of these headquarters is the DS-2CD8253F-EI IR Bullet Network Camera. Again, sporting an IP66 rating, the DS-2CD8253F-EI also provides true day / night ability and an IR range of up-to 30m to give excellent coverage all lighting conditions. Mr. Svoboda remarked, "For this particular application, night vision was critical, and we are very comfortable with the DS-2CD8253F-EI's ability."
The Final Piece
Finally, tying this CCTV system together is Hikvision's DS-8632NI-ST NVR. "The DS-8632NI-ST allows us to connect all of our internal and external Hikvision cameras into this 32-channel NVR. This conveniently and efficiently provides multiple access for different users, such as personnel at reception, security, or various managers that need require usage of our CCTV system," summed up Mr. Svoboda.
Whether it be hallways or the headquarters' external walls, Hikvision is helping Jablotron Alarms, a.s. deliver the security to ensure their continued future success.

Hikvision’s position in the surveillance industry market is clear - it is the world’s leading supplier of video surveillance solutions. Up until last year, the company’s presence in Europe has been mainly using traditional distributor channels. This is now changing, with the company’s non-CCTV portfolio growing to include products to enhance security in other ways – from access control to intrusion detection.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, announces its new Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) solution, which offers vehicle recognition technology embedded into cameras. This gives users the ability to detect and recognise vehicles from their licence plates, capturing a range of information, including country registered, related image and speed information (with radar). This has a multitude of applications, including road traffic management and Entry/Exit management.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, has launched an innovative IP
Video Door Phone System solution in the next stage of its mission to offer a complete security solution to residents and businesses.
Especially designed for security surveillance and control centre environments, Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, has launched a new range of professional LED-backlit TFT LCD monitors.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, releases its explosion-proof Thermal Network Bullet camera, which is equipped with explosion-proof ‘inox’ enclosure made of stainless steel, protecting it against corrosion. It adopts a vanadium oxide uncooled focal place sensor the enhance image quality.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of video surveillance products and solutions, and SGS, the world's leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company, announced they have signed a memorandum agreement for joint laboratory collaboration. The memorandum will pave the way for joint efforts in testing, inspection, verification and certification of Hikvision products. It will also see the two companies cooperating strategically in various areas, including: mutual technology exchange, training, information sharing and platform establishment.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative
video surveillance products and solutions, supplied digital video
monitoring technology solutions to the Museum for East Asian Art in
Cologne – thus paving the way for entry into the age of HD-TVI. The
museum previously had analogue cameras and an analogue recorder in
place. The image quality of the recordings was poor and rewinding and
fast-forwarding recordings turned out to be complicated. The museum was
looking for a more modern and flexible solution to circumvent these
difficulties. So a hybrid digital video recorder and a new hard disk
drive from Hikvision were installed, providing the museum with a more
cutting-edge video monitoring solution.
The science of infra-red detecting has many
applications, not least in the security industry. Where regular cameras
cannot see – for instance in very low light, fog or other bad weather
conditions or smoke-filled areas – thermal technology can provide a
clear image. Combined with regular lenses and smart functions, like
intrusion detection, this technology provides an invaluable addition to
security solutions.
Hikvision is always pushing the boundaries of technology, innovating to meet ever-increasing needs of the security community.
The
products lead the market in three ways. They create better images due
to an independent research and development module on the cameras
themselves. They include better smart functions giving smart analysis
functionalities. Finally, they are suitable for better applications,
including temperature exception and fire detection.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of
innovative video surveillance products and solutions, together with

Fighter technology make the cameras ideal for use under unfavourable
conditions, e.g. on the coast or at sea.
The Hikvision
iDS-2CD6810F/C is equipped with two lenses, making it even more accurate
than its predecessor, which was already highly successful in mapping
the number of visitors with only one lens.
The
dual lens enables the camera to create a three-dimensional image of
each object. The innovation mainly lies in the camera’s capability to
map the height of a person on the Z-axis, thus excluding any confusion
with, for example, shadows or objects, such as baby carriages.
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, announces that its new Turbo HD 4.0 range, which boasts ultra-low light performance and the ability to send power as well as 8MP video images over conventional coaxial cable, will be available from Q3 2017.
