IMS explores growth stimulus for wireless video surveillance
Wellingborough, Northants (UK)
“The penetration of wireless infrastructure into other vertical markets in the video surveillance industry has been less successful”, continues Jenkins. “The commercial and transportation markets have seen some uptake in the use of wireless infrastructure; however, in vertical markets such as banking & finance it remains extremely niche as there is a perception that the security system can be breached through the wireless network.”
“To better understand the potential for wireless video surveillance in new vertical markets, IMS Research interviewed security systems integrators and installers of wireless infrastructure used in video surveillance. It is clear from these discussions that wireless solutions are rarely the first option. That being said, most integrators see the potential for wireless infrastructure in the commercial, transportation and education markets and, as they become more familiar with the technology, these markets will stimulate growth for wireless video surveillance equipment.”
