IP-based surveillance protects student and staff.

Mission
Swinburne University of Technology wanted a new surveillance system to improve security and safety and deter crime across its large main site and five remote campus locations, beginning with its main Hawthorn campus - a challenging environment that includes a railway station, rail line, public streets, retail outlets, and 24-hour access to some facilities.

Solution
Swinburne University leveraged its existing investment in IP technology by installing 180 Axis network cameras with Milestone's X-Protect head-end software.

Result
The university has taken a quantum leap in the quality of its surveillance, with a network video system that can be used to monitor and assess security situations quickly, deter crime and help ensure the safety of security officers, staff, students and valuable assets around the clock.

The new network video system delivers exceptional image quality, and is cost-effectively built around the university's existing infrastructure. Security staff can now easily see what's going on across the site from a central location. High-speed access to quality, easily searchable recordings of incidents can be quickly made available to police or used in internal investigations.
