“These complex installations show how obtaining equipment, from the cameras with several types of transmission technologies, to the DVRs, from the same vendor can make implementing such systems easier,” says Mark Wilson, Infinova vice president, marketing.  “For instance, the Shangman Expressway is integrated with 136 sets of Infinova WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) plus dome and high-speed PTZ cameras as well as matrix switchers.  The Xihan Expressway features the same cameras plus 260 pairs of fibre optic modems.”
