AFN Solutions and parent company Telstra have signed a contract to provide Moreton Bay Regional Council with a fully managed CCTV solution worth $A7 million, with the entire project cost to be paid over 60 months on Council’s Telstra bill.
The project entails the installation of a wide area network covering more than 50 sites with a mixture of fibre, wireless and 4G connectivity. It also involves the installation of a mixture of Dell servers running Milestone Xprotect Corporate for larger sites and Milestone Huskies in smaller locations, along with the 150 Allied Telesis rack and industrial switches. Finally, the project will see the replacement of 725 fixed and 160 PTZ cameras with Uniview 4MP fixed cameras and 1080P Uniview PTZs.
AFN Solutions will manage the entire system including new installs, life-cycle management, maintenance and 24hour support. A comprehensive 5-year warranty will provide total peace of mind for the Council, greatly minimizing both physical and financial risk.
“This is a significant project for AFN and Telstra, representing our largest foray into the safe city vertical so far,” said AFN’s Tony Lagan. “Our combined capacity to finance and deliver large contracts undoubtedly makes AFN and Telstra a force to be reckoned with.” ♦
