Brussels Airport continues its commitment to IP video with new upgrade
Brussels, Belgium
Six years on Brussels Airport is benefiting from their early decision to deploy IP Video by upgrading their current IndigoVision 6000 series technology with the latest series 8000 MPEG-4 product. As well as providing DVD quality video the 8000 series will give Brussels Airport access to real time analytics. Managed by IndigoVision's local partner Fabricom GTI, Security Division, all 800 of the original series 6000 transmitter/receiver units will eventually be replaced with over 1000 of the new 8000 units by the end of 2007, providing additional surveillance in addition to the benefits of the newer technology.
