About the Ceragon Video Surveillance Product
Ceragon’s Video Surveillance solution provides an inexpensive asymmetric link: A fast uplink
for a real time video stream from a camera site to the surveillance base and a slower com-
mand downlink from the base to the camera site.
The Video Surveillance (VS) product belongs to Ceragon’s Access line. A VS link consists of a
base ODU transmitting at 2Mbps connected by a PoE device. The camera site uses a PoE con-
nected ODU transmitting at 5Mbps.
Installation, configuration and maintenance of a VS link is substantially the same as for a reg-
ular PoE based link. VS links are readily collocated using Ceragon’s HSS system, so that a sin-
gle base mast can accommodate up to 16 camera stations.

ity:
