While indoor security is widely used thanks to video surveillance, intrusion alarms, access control and other IoT systems; outdoor perimeter intrusion detection is also providing further protection to critical sites such as substations and power utilities, distribution centres, seaports, airports, construction sites, major events, public spaces and many others.

KBC Networks and Bunker Seguridad, a manufacturer of perimeter intrusion protection systems, have partnered together to establish a warehouse in Spain to provide fast delivery of quality products for Europe and Africa.

Enabling communication
The strategic combination and integration of components like security cameras, thermal cameras, lighting and physical fencing solutions and more, provide a customised security solution for each unique application. KBC Networks specialises in enabling communication between video, access and perimeter systems with industrialised network products that are suitable for outdoor installation and use.

Luis Angulo says: “From a large selection of PoE switches and fibre media converters to wireless transmission and power products, KBC Networks provides reliable, secure data transmission to IP and SCADA devices. KBC also supports communications from unmanned sites, like power substations, by providing encrypted WAN connectivity to off-site control centres.”

Provide power to sensors
Luis Angulo also stresses that Thrulink, an industrial hardware VPN, provides the ability to display real-time video, audio and data using 4G/LTE in addition to DSL and fibre. Thrulink enables management systems like PSIM, BMS or VMS to communicate with multiple remote sites providing real-time status.

KBC Networks wind and solar systems on construction sites provide power to sensors and networking gear to open, close and activate power gates or entrances. The autonomous power systems available support applications without local infrastructure and are mobile to be deployed quickly throughout the site according to KBC Networks.

“KBC Networks works transparently integrating devices from different physical security manufacturers independent of how large or small the application may be”, says Luis Angulo.
