Videcom designs and integrates secure, high-capacity wireless networks for security and operational applications. These can be used for CCTV, ANPR, access control, site connectivity, backhaul and other IP services, with solutions ranging from short-range local links to resilient point-to-point and point-to-multipoint networks.

5 GHz: 5 GHz wireless remains useful for a wide range of CCTV and network connectivity applications, particularly where flexible deployment and cost-effective coverage are important. It can support point-to-point and point-to-multipoint links, although performance depends on local spectrum use, interference, path conditions and available line of sight. Videcom designs these links around the required capacity, resilience and operating environment rather than relying on a fixed headline data rate.

Technology choice: The most appropriate platform depends on distance, required throughput, line of sight, local spectrum conditions, resilience and the operational importance of the link. Videcom works with established wireless technologies including Ceragon/Siklu, Cambium and MikroTik, selecting equipment to suit the project rather than forcing a single manufacturer or frequency band.

60 GHz: 60 GHz is well suited to high-capacity, short-range links where clear line of sight is available. It can provide fast point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connectivity with a smaller interference footprint than lower-frequency bands, making it useful for dense urban sites, campus environments and local CCTV backhaul.

70-80 GHz: E-band wireless is suited to very high-capacity point-to-point backhaul where fibre-like performance is required without the cost or disruption of new civils. Typical applications include linking control rooms, civic buildings, commercial sites, high-rise locations and major CCTV network nodes over clear line-of-sight paths.
