VIVOTEK Cameras Drastically Improve Video Surveillance for South Africa’s N4 Toll Route

Commissioned by Trans Africa Concessions (TRAC), VIVOTEK collaborated with system integrator, Africa Technology Operations and Maintenance (ATOM), to upgrade and replace hundreds of cameras on the N4 Toll Route. This included upgrading from many individual DVRs to a centrally managed system using VIVOTEK’s VAST 2 software. A total of 130 VIVOTEK 2-megapixel IP9165-LPR-A Kit cameras were installed for License Plate Recognition (LPR) on the N4. These cameras are outdoor-ready with IP68 and IK10 rated housings, and their anti-glare capabilities enable crystal-clear LPR across two lanes at speeds up to 90 km/hr.Additionally, 105 VIVOTEK IB9387-HT cameras were installed at N4 toll booth lanes to provide overview surveillance coverage. The 5-megapixel, hi-res IB9387-HT outdoor bullet cameras offer superb image quality at 30/60 fps in 1080P. They are also equipped with IR illuminators up to 50 meters for night visibility. Both the IP9165-LPR-A Kit and IB9387-HT cameras serve dual functions of surveillance and detection, effectively minimizing financial loss from intentional and unintentional incidents.Furthermore, 105 VIVOTEK IT9389-H cameras were installed inside toll booths along the N4 to record high-quality audiovisual data as evidence in case of disputes. The 5-megapixel IT9389-H outdoor turret cameras feature VIVOTEK’s Supreme Night Visibility (SNV) and 120dB WDR Pro, ensuring hi-res images at 30 fps any time of day.
