IP Video Security Systems
AI-PoweredProfessional networked camera systems — not analog, not CCTV. Enterprise-grade IP cameras, NVRs, PoE switching, remote viewing, and AI-driven analytics that turn footage into actionable intelligence.
Why IP Video Security, not “CCTV”
The term “CCTV” refers to legacy analog systems using coaxial cable and DVRs — technology that has largely been superseded. SoftSol installs only modern IP-based (networked) camera systems. The difference is significant:
Old analog / CCTV
- ✗Low-resolution (typically 480p or less)
- ✗Coaxial cable only, no PoE
- ✗DVR-based, no remote access
- ✗No AI analytics capability
- ✗Limited scalability
IP Video Security (SoftSol)
- ✓HD, 4K, and beyond — pixel-perfect identification
- ✓PoE — single cable for power and data
- ✓NVR-based with encrypted remote viewing
- ✓AI analytics — detection, recognition, alerts
- ✓Scales from 1 camera to hundreds
AI-Powered Video Analytics
SoftSol integrates AI analytics engines with compatible camera and NVR platforms. This transforms passive recordings into active, real-time intelligence — alerting, identifying, and logging automatically without requiring someone to watch a screen.
🚗
Number Plate Recognition (ANPR/LPR)
Automatically reads and logs vehicle registration plates as vehicles enter, exit, or pass. Supports whitelists, blacklists, and real-time alerts for flagged plates — ideal for access control, parking management, and forensic investigation.
🏊
Swimming Pool Detection
AI detects unauthorised entry into pool zones and triggers instant alerts. Configurable for after-hours access, unsupervised minors, or occupancy thresholds. Reduces liability and improves response times in hospitality, residential estates, and schools.
✈️
Aircraft Tail Number Identification & Tracking
High-resolution cameras with optical recognition identify aircraft tail registration markings on aprons, taxiways, and parking stands. Movement tracking logs arrival, departure, and position history — essential for aviation facilities, FBOs, and private airfields.
🚶
Perimeter Intrusion Detection
Virtual tripwires and zone-based intrusion detection trigger alerts when people or vehicles cross defined boundaries — with far fewer false positives than traditional motion detection.
🧑
People Counting & Occupancy
Accurate bi-directional people counting for entries and exits. Supports occupancy management, queue analytics, and business intelligence reporting. Useful for retail, events, and compliance with capacity limits.
🚨
Loitering & Behavioural Detection
Flags individuals or vehicles that remain in a zone longer than a defined threshold. Useful for ATMs, server rooms, secure entrances, and any area where lingering behaviour represents a risk.
System features — every installation
HD & 4K Cameras
IP cameras in 2MP, 4MP, 8MP (4K), and beyond. Fixed, varifocal, PTZ, fisheye, and specialist variants (thermal, low-light) selected for each installation.
Network Video Recorder (NVR)
Dedicated NVR hardware with RAID storage, configurable retention periods, and redundant recording. No footage is stored on cameras or exposed to the internet.
Secure Remote Viewing
Live and recorded footage accessible via encrypted mobile app or desktop client from anywhere in the world. Multi-user access with role-based permissions.
PoE Switching
Power over Ethernet delivers both power and data through a single cable — simplifying installation, reducing cost, and enabling clean, cable-managed deployments.
VLAN Isolation
Camera networks are isolated on dedicated VLANs, preventing video traffic from intermingling with business data and protecting cameras from lateral network attacks.
Ongoing Monitoring & Support
SoftSol monitors NVR health, camera connectivity, and storage capacity. Firmware updates, fault response, and system reviews are included in managed service agreements.
Who this is for
Commercial & Industrial Premises
Warehouses, factories, office parks, and retail complexes requiring perimeter protection, access monitoring, and incident evidence.
Aviation Facilities & Airfields
FBOs, private airfields, and hangar facilities requiring tail number identification, apron monitoring, and movement logging.
Residential Estates & Complexes
Gated estates, cluster homes, and complexes needing access plate recognition, pool monitoring, and perimeter alerts.
Schools & Educational Facilities
Campus monitoring, pool safety detection, people counting, and visitor access logging for duty-of-care compliance.
