System Architecture

From camera placement design to live AI monitoring.

A structured five-step process that turns a blank floor plan into a fully operational, AI-monitored camera system.

📐

Camera Placement Design

Map your facility, design coverage to eliminate blind spots, ensure adequate resolution at key zones, minimize camera count while maximizing coverage.

2
🔧

Cabling Infrastructure

Cat6/Cat6A PoE runs from every camera location to IDF. Fiber backbone between IDFs where required. All runs certified.

📡

Camera Installation

Cameras mounted, aimed, and focused. PoE power verified, video stream tested, field of view aligned to design coverage zones.

4
🖥️

VMS / NVR Configuration

Cloud VMS or on-premise NVR configured with recording schedules, retention policies, motion detection zones, and alert rules.

5
🤖

AI Analytics Setup

LPR zones, person detection, loitering, line crossing, and access control video-event pairing configured and validated.

Camera Platform

Hardware Ecosystem

AIT installs enterprise IP cameras with advanced AI built into the hardware — real-time analytics at the edge, not bolted on as a cloud add-on.

4K Dome & Bullet Cameras

Indoor & Outdoor · IP67 · IR Night Vision

4K resolution cameras with 120dB WDR, IR night vision to 100ft, IK10 vandal-resistant housings for indoor dome, and IP67-rated weatherproof bullet cameras for outdoor perimeter.

PTZ Cameras

30x Optical Zoom · AutoTrack · Presets

Pan-tilt-zoom cameras with 30x optical zoom, AI autotracking for moving objects, and preset patrol routes. One camera replaces multiple fixed cameras for wide-area monitoring.

Multi-Sensor Panoramic

180° / 360° · Replaces 3–4 Cameras

Multi-sensor cameras with 180° or 360° panoramic coverage — one cable, one IP address, three or four camera views. Ideal for lobbies, intersections, and parking lots.

LPR Cameras

License Plate Recognition · Gate Trigger

Dedicated LPR cameras with AI plate reading for gate control, parking enforcement, and vehicle audit logging. Integrates with access control for automatic gate open on approved vehicles.

NVR / Cloud VMS

On-Prem or Cloud · RAID Storage

Network video recorder with RAID-protected storage for on-premise deployments, or cloud-hosted VMS for zero-hardware management. 30-day retention standard. Remote access via browser or mobile app.

PoE+ Mission Critical Switch

Battery-Backed · Cameras Stay Online

Mission Critical PoE+ switch with integrated battery backup — cameras keep recording during power outages. QoS prioritizes video traffic. Single-port failure never takes down the system.

AI Analytics

Every camera. Intelligent by default.

Modern enterprise IP cameras run AI analytics at the edge — no separate server required. AIT configures and validates every analytics rule before handoff.

Person Detection

AI-powered human detection eliminates false alerts from trees, animals, and shadows. Only real people trigger alerts — reducing alert fatigue by up to 95%.

License Plate Recognition

Read and log vehicle license plates automatically. Trigger gate or door access for approved plates. Alert on flagged or unknown plates entering the facility.

Line Crossing & Zone Intrusion

Draw virtual tripwires and restricted zones on any camera. Instant alert when breached — even in total darkness with IR cameras. Configurable direction sensitivity.

Loitering Detection

Alert when a person remains in a defined area beyond a configurable time threshold. Ideal for ATM areas, server rooms, loading docks, and retail loss prevention.

Face & Identity Recognition

Identify registered employees, flag unknown faces, and integrate with access control credential events. Configurable confidence thresholds per zone.

Camera–Access Event Pairing

Every access control door event is linked to the nearest camera’s recorded video. One click shows who badged in and what the camera saw — no manual search.

Video Security

Encrypted. Redundant. Always recording.

Enterprise video requires encrypted transmission, redundant storage, and reliable power. AIT engineers all three.

End-to-End Video Encryption

All video streams transmitted over HTTPS/TLS. NVR storage uses AES-256 encryption at rest. No unauthorized access to your footage.

RAID-Protected Storage

On-premise NVRs use RAID 5 or RAID 6. Single or dual drive failure doesn’t lose footage. Enterprise VMS adds cloud backup for critical cameras.

Battery-Backed PoE Power

Mission Critical PoE switches keep cameras powered and recording during grid outages — cameras stay online for hours of backup runtime.

Cybersecurity Hardening

Cameras configured with unique credentials, HTTPS management, and VLAN isolation from corporate traffic. Firmware updated to latest before go-live.

Questions & Answers

Everything you need to know.

Camera count depends on facility size, layout, and coverage requirements. A typical commercial office needs one camera per 400–600 sq ft for entries, exits, and common areas. We design your system with a camera placement map as part of every proposal.

An on-premise NVR stores video locally — you control the hardware, storage, and retention. A cloud VMS stores remotely — no on-site hardware. For most businesses, on-premise NVR provides the best combination of control and cost.

Yes. Both cloud VMS and modern NVR platforms provide remote access via browser and mobile app. We configure secure remote access via cloud relay — typically not direct port forwarding — as part of every installation.

Modern enterprise cameras include: person detection, line crossing/zone intrusion alerts, loitering detection, license plate recognition (LPR), and facial recognition. AIT configures and validates all analytics rules before project closeout.

Yes. We assess your existing coax infrastructure and determine which runs can be reused with IP-over-coax adapters. New IP cameras are connected to a new NVR or cloud VMS — modern 4K cameras with AI analytics on existing cabling.

Standard retention is 30 days at full resolution. We size NVR storage to match your camera count and retention target. RAID-protected storage ensures no footage is lost to a single drive failure.
