CCTV monitoring in automotive wholesale center



GAZELO deals with import and distribution of spare parts for cars. In Poland, it is the sole representative of several manufacturers of electric fuel pumps and lambda sensors from Korea, Taiwan, and China.

To increase security and improve the organization of work in the new wholesale store, the investor decided to install CCTV monitoring. In the construction process the contractor made cabling to all planned outdoor camera points, using gel-filled cat 5e UTP cable, prepared for CCTV cameras placed in housings equipped with video transformers with BNC sockets - TR-1Q. Video signals from four cameras are received by video transformer TR-4P placed in the building and providing its output signals to the DVR. If needed in the future, the installation allows to transmit audio, e.g. for transmitting some orders. Indoor CCTV cabling has been based on CCTV YAR cable with two power wires.

The employed outdoor day/night SUNELL cameras have on board 1/3" SONY EX-View CCDs. Thanks to high parameters, the cameras can work even in extreme lighting conditions (e.g. they can be used for monitoring of roads). Some places, very dark at night, required to use compact cameras with IR illuminators. Outdoor color cameras (with 4-9 mm varifocal lens and IR illuminator)">VF-515 IR/B, with SONY Super HAD sensors, 550 TVL resolution, equipped with 4-9 mm varifocal lenses and IR illuminators seemed to be the best choice. They were easy to mount and adjust, providing quality images with increased resolution. The inside parts of the building and the rooms are monitored with the vandal proof cameras VC-412. This model of universal (ceiling / wall) color vandal-proof camera is equipped with built-in 3.6 mm lens and IR illuminator.

Images from the set of cameras are recorded by 16-channel DVR - CPD-507 and 4-channel DVR - CPD-560. Some selected images are also available via RF system (due to use of TERRA modulators MT27P) and can be viewed on TV sets located in administrative part of the building.

There are plans for future development of the system. The key cameras will be connected to ULTIMAX DVR that allows live monitoring, preview of archives, and configuration of the system via LAN or the Internet. H.264/AVC compression is 50% more efficient compared with the previous kind of MPEG-4 algorithms, saving disc space and available bandwidth of IP networks.

Halogen-free TRISET cables


Halogen-free TRISET cables The new cables from TRISET family - TRISET-113 HF E1019 and TRISET-11HF E1029 are manufactured using HF (halogen free) technology. When burning, they do not give off toxic gases.
This feature allows to use the cables in public buildings (hospitals, schools, theaters etc). In such buildings there have to be used safe cables which, in the case of fire, do not pose any additional risk for people. It is not permissible to use compounds of chlorine, fluorine, bromine, or iodine - the halogen compounds hazardous to health (carcinogenic) that would give off in high temperature.

Cables in PVC sheath (containing chlorine) and those based on polyethylene and polypropylene (admixture of bromine) are halogen cables. In the mentioned halogen-free cables there are used more expensive aluminum compounds instead.

The halogen-free TRISET cables belong to NC/LSOH group, i.e. they do not emit corrosive fumes (Non Corrosive), or much smoke (Low Smoke), or, of course, halogen compounds (O Halogen - Zero Halogen - sometimes marked as ZH).

The both cables comply with EN 50268-1, 2 - (low smoke) and EN 50267-2-2 (non-corrosive, halogen free).
TRISET family has been awarded at SatKrak 2007 (international satellite trade fair in Krakow). Due to low loss, high screening efficiency, and perfect matching, TRISET cables ensure high performance of multiswitch systems and large cable installations (MATV, cable TV).

TRISET HF cables comply with highest safety standards and feature outstanding technical parameters:
  • high screening efficiency (A-class: above 100 dB),
  • low loss (at 2150 MHz: TRISET-113HF - 27.7 dB, TRISET-11 HF - 21.0 dB).

Coaxial cable of the year 2007


"Triset" family of coaxial cables gained the "Product of the Year" award during SatKrak exhibition which took place in Krakow, October 18-20, 2007. DIPOL company got the prize in the "Best Accessories" category.

Distribution cables have to ensure higher quality of transmission because of transition towards HDTV standards. The main requirements for modern coaxial cables include perfect transmission parameters, such as shielding effectiveness (protection against external interferences).

Triset cable family belongs to the group of distribution cables that features the best screening efficiency in the market. It practically eliminates the negative influence of common electromagnetic fields on the signal quality. The cables also have low attenuation. Triset family includes cables:
  • PVC for indoor installations
  • PE, gel-filled cable for outdoor applications
  • HF, halogen-free
  • PE and HF

Tips for TV-Sat installations


Development of television and telecommunications techniques promotes quick spreading of modern antenna installations just like in the past the common use of electric devices extorted careful designing of electric installations.

Some advice for all who would like to do such installation:

1.Place and way of mounting the antennas

Most of damages in antenna installations are the result of collapse of improperly fixed mast or breaking badly laid cable lines. Nowadays, the most popular solution is clamping the antenna mast to a chimney. Masts can also be fixed with wall brackets. Satellite dishes are usually fastened on separate masts. Antenna cable should enter a building already on the roof.
A WLAN antenna has to be mounted the way guarantying mutual visibility with the counterpart (usually of the Internet provider).

2. Kind of installation (pass-through, star-shaped, mixed)

Currently the pass-through installations are not preferred, especially in larger systems. Star installations are more universal and more resistant to interferences induced by connected receivers. They are used both for distributing terrestrial and satellite programs (multiswitch installations).

3. The Method of laying cables
In new office blocks and even apartment buildings cable trays become more and more popular solution for placing electrical, computer, telecommunications and RF installations.

There should be planned main vertical conduit from the basement to the attic, with possibility of leading branches on every floor. Such layout will allow to implement modern installations, change location of main devices etc. It is not recommended to lay unprotected cables just under the plaster. Each cable has limited life and can also be accidentally damaged (e.g. when drilling holes in the wall). The exchange would be extremely difficult.

If the installation is to be laid traditionally, conduit tubes should be applied.
