Objectives of the Inspection.
The main objectives of the CCTV site inspection were to:
Understand the security needs and layout of the Jimhan Shipping Corp. facility
Identify strategic points for surveillance coverage including entry/exit points, office areas, and critical zones
Assess infrastructure readiness (power sources, cabling routes, mounting options)
Provide tailored recommendations for CCTV installation that align with security goals and operational flow
Inspection Process.
The inspection was conducted using a methodical and consultative approach:
Initial Consultation: Discussions with the company’s representative to understand daily operations, personnel movement, and security concerns
Site Walkthrough: Visual assessment of the building structure, perimeter, entryways, storage areas, and other high-priority zones
Layout Mapping: Identification of ideal camera locations to maximize coverage and visibility
Infrastructure Check: Review of available power points, cabling pathways, and mounting feasibility for cameras and DVR/NVR equipment
Documentation: Photographic and written records of key findings to support the planning and quotation phase
Key Findings
Absence of Existing Equipment
There were no pre-installed cameras, cabling, recording units, or security monitors present at the facility.
The site will require a full CCTV system installation from scratch, including structured cabling and equipment setup.
Camera Coverage Requirements
The inspection revealed the need for surveillance in the following areas:
Main Entrance
Perimeter Gates and Parking Area
Office Workstations
Storage and Inventory Areas
Hallways and Common Zones
Loading and Unloading Docks
Infrastructure Readiness
Sufficient electrical access points were available for CCTV system deployment
Wall and ceiling structures are suitable for clean mounting and secure cable routing
No existing conduits or cable trays, which will be considered during structured cabling implementation
Recommendations
Complete CCTV System Installation
Deploy a hybrid CCTV setup using a combination of indoor dome and outdoor bullet-type cameras, paired with a high-capacity Network Video Recorder (NVR) or Digital Video Recorder (DVR), depending on final requirements.Structured Cabling Design
Implement professional-grade structured cabling with weather-resistant conduits and cable organizers to ensure safety, longevity, and easy maintenance.Power Optimization
Install dedicated power outlets or use PoE (Power over Ethernet) cameras to minimize wiring clutter and simplify installation.Monitoring Station Setup
Designate an area for the central monitoring system, including a monitor, NVR/DVR unit, and surge protection hardware.Scalable System Architecture
Use scalable equipment to allow future expansions, such as additional camera units or integration with access control and alarm systems.
Benefits of Implementation.
Security Assurance: Real-time surveillance deters theft, unauthorized access, and misconduct
Operational Awareness: Enhanced visibility across all departments and operational zones
Incident Evidence: Reliable video recording for audit trails and investigation support
