Solution

ED proposed a variety of innovative solutions for Bravo. First of all, it set up a centralized information system and deployed telecommunications and service equipment and special-purpose programming. Control over sales halls, staff facilities and areas adjacent to the warehouse was enabled through an intelligent video surveillance system connected to video servers with a specially designed network and cable infrastructure. IP video surveillance provides live video streaming, video recording and video archive review for both local and remote system operators. The security system is equipped with a centralized power supply system in order to ensure uninterrupted and accident-free operation. Applying electronic IP solutions made it possible to build a flexible and easily measurable system.
