Gymatronix Ltda is one of the leading companies in Colombia for high tech surveillance systems and cost effective solutions. Together with its partner, Mobil Access Solutions Ltda, they designed and developed a wireless surveillance system using ACTi products and delivered excellent results to the end customer.

The solution is composed of two separate groups of sixteen Pelco speed domes located about 1 Km and 2 Km from the central control room respectively. Each Pelco speed dome is connected to an ACTi SED-2100R video server, and the video server is connected to a Wi-Fi wireless radio operating at 2.4 GHz. The analog video from each Pelco speed dome is encoded by the ACTi SED-2100R into highly efficient MPEG-4 video and transmitted wirelessly to the central control room. At the central control room, two ACTi StreamingActivator stations each manages 16Pelco speed dome + ACTi video server combination and allow live preview, recording, playback and PTZ control of the speed dome. Also, a separate PTZ control panel is connected to an ACTi SED-3200 transcoder to allow PTZ control of the speed domes.
