After 20 years experience trading as Camera Controls in the UK, John O'Connell (Platinum Link's Business Development Director) called on his experience of Norbain SD, Europe's largest distributor of CCTV and Access Control equipment, to ensure reliability of product availability and supply.
The hotel's CCTV security is divided into two unique systems giving separate internal and external monitoring with hard disk recording and full network capability over the hotel's local area network.
Internally the system comprises 16 Vista domes - 14 black fixed domes (VFD4V9C) and 2 Vista vandal resistant domes (VVRWM36C).
Externally, the system comprises 16 Vista day/night cameras (VPC9032/CM).
Both systems feed into two 16-channel Digital Sprite hard disk video recorders from Dedicated Micros (DS2SDX16C).
Three Vista TFT monitors (two 17" Vista VFSM17/DW monitors and one 15" monitor VFSM monitor) provide control room staff with high quality viewing, recording and replay facilities.

Sales Co-ordinator and ex-Norbain employee, Ian Clarke, believes that southern Spain offers tremendous potential for CCTV installers: "Rising concern about crime levels combined with the needs of the local expatriate community, make this region a source of considerable growth potential for CCTV installers.
