EXERCISE 148 : Demonstrate the strategic locations for

the installations of cameras

Objectives

At the end of this exercise you shall be able to:
• to Demonstrate installations of cameras.
Requirements

Tools/Materials

• Combinations Plier 250mm] - 1 No. • DVR - 1-2 Nos.
• Screw Driver Set 150mm - 1 No. • Camera cable - as reqd.
• Wire Stripper - 1 No. • Camera pin and socket - 10-15 pics.
• Camera - as reqd.

Procedure

Note: Cameras are being used in various places in various locations.

Cameras: CCTV (closed circuit televisions ) is a TV system in which signals are not publicly distributed but are
monitored, primarily for surveillance and security purposes.
CCTV uses cases:
Older CCTV systems used small, low-resolution black and white monitors with no interactive capabilities. Modern
CCTV displays can be color, high-resolution displays and can include the ability to zoom in on an image or track
something (or someone) among their features.
CCTV is commonly used for a variety of purposes, including:
• Maintaining perimeter security in medium- to high-secure areas and installations.

• Observing behaviour of incarcerated inmates and potentially dangerous patients in medical facilities.
• Traffic monitoring.
• Overseeing locations that would be hazardous to a human, for example, highly radioactive or toxic industrial
environments.
• Building and grounds security.
• Obtaining a visual record of activities in situations where it is necessary to maintain proper security or access
controls (for example, in a diamond cutting or sorting operation; in banks, casinos, or airports).
Procedure:
There are the following points for installations of cameras in different places :-
Front door
This is the most obvious route for criminals to gain access into your home, and the biggest proportion of break-ins
occur via this entrance. To prevent any items being launched at the delicate CCTV cameras, consider mounting
the equipment at the second floor level or fitting a wire cage around it.

Back and side doors
Any entrance into your property is viewed as a potential channel for a criminal to gain access into your private
space. Have some cameras trained on all doors, as these are your most vulnerable spots. Take the same
protective precautions as described in the previous point, to prevent any tampering.
Patio and French doors are especially defenceless against break-ins, so support their stability with thick glass
and a well-placed CCTV camera.
