The benefits of SmartBay CCTV Patch Panels

1. The time saved during installation and maintenance can offset the cost of the components.
2. SmartBay reduces labour costs. Terminating power for 16 cameras can be cut from 2 hours to 20 minutes.
3. SmartBay helps the installer to meet or exceed Australian Standard AS4806 (Closed circuit television Part 2: Application guidelines).
4. SmartBay provides each camera and camera cable with a polyswitch ™ fused
   supply. Helps limit dangerous conditions such as over current on a camera cable that can cause cable/equipment damage.
5. SmartBay allows the installer to provide a structured cabling system, simplifying management and maintenance of the CCTV System. Including certification \ warranty of the cabling itself. To see how structured cabling systems actually work see the Network Cabling Page Here.
6. SmartBay clearly delineates the task of running and terminating cabling from the installation and commissioning of the DVRs and more technical tasks, allowing more efficient use of human resources.
7. SmartBay uses cable strippers and Crimpers already used for normal Male BNC connectors.
8. SmartBay BNC connectors suit the higher quality, larger center conduction (0.9 mm Diameter) Coax.
9. SmartBay allows the quick and simple testing of the cameras and cabling.
10. SmartBay allows the connection of specific cameras to specific DVRs after installation to better organise the visual information, irrespective of the
    cable installation order, to help meet the customers requirements.
11. If a DVR fails, high priority cameras can be patched to another DVR within seconds, compare this to the time required to replace an entire DVR.
12. SmartBay simplifies the installation and replacement of power supplies.

Did you know? The components of the SmartBay system are selected to meet the signaling requirements of CCTV, after all some Coaxial cable is manufactured for R.F. applications and is not suitable for CCTV transmission as the DC resistance is too high.
