Remote CCTV Systems

In co-operation with our partners, Integrated Visual Protection, Xtralis and Yeoman, we provide off-site CCTV and protection services for commercial, industrial and residential premises through the use of remote digital technology, cameras on site via movement sensors or the new Presidium Sensing System. For more information see Xtralis

Using state-of-the-art equipment, these systems allow the control and monitoring of cameras, opening and closing of entrance gates, fire and intruder alarm systems and personal key holder protection services, all from the remote monitoring station.

The central station staff are highly trained to respond promptly and efficiently as soon as an alarm is received, to verify an intruder situation and alert the key holder and the appropriate emergency services.

There are various levels of monitoring service including:

• Basic system based on a telephone line, which gives instant detection if it has been damaged or cut, and transmits even when the phone is in use
• ADSL Broadband and ISDN, which is capable of transmitting up to 1,000 different alarms or data packets, as well as status reports on the customer's premises such as the movements of an intruder within the premises.
• Connection with a GSM back-up whereby, if one system fails, the other alerts the ARC while continuing to monitor any subsequent alarms.
