SURVEILLANCE
Network connectivity for CCTV and Safe City cameras
I-ON carries the video, not the camera. Committed bandwidth to every camera, links across premises and municipal footprints, and a network watched round the clock so the recording is there when somebody asks for it.

A camera is only as good as the line behind it.
What does surveillance connectivity actually involve? Committed bandwidth for every camera stream, links that hold at the busiest hour of the day, and separation from everything else running on the site. The cameras, recorders and viewing software stay yours. The network they run on is ours.
Footage matters on exactly one day and nobody knows which day that is. When the line between a camera and the recorder degrades, nothing on a screen announces it. The camera looks fine, the control room looks fine, and the hour that mattered is simply not in the archive.
So the network is engineered for video rather than fitted around it. Capacity is committed per camera, links across a Safe City premises or a municipal footprint run over infrastructure we operate ourselves, and the whole path is monitored 24×7 against 99.5% committed uptime. If a link degrades, we are working on it before anyone goes looking for a clip.
KEY FEATURES
Every camera, on a line of its own
Safe City premises, municipal networks and business sites – capacity committed per camera, kept apart from everything else on site.
Bandwidth to every camera
Capacity committed per camera and per stream, so recording never competes with anything else on the site.
Safe City premises
Gates, perimeters, junctions and the control room linked as one network, not a set of separate lines.
Municpal networks
Connectivity for city surveillance programmes such as NMMC, where cameras sit across wards and answer to one control room.
Separated traffic
Camera traffic stays in its own lane, away from office laptops, billing systems and guest devices.
24×7 proactive monitoring
Watched round the clock, so most faults are seen before anyone reports them.
Reliable
99.5% committed uptime, with high-speed bandwidth committed to you rather than shared.
Zero CapEx
Nothing to buy. I-ON provides, installs, maintains and replaces every piece of network equipment.
Issue resolution
One point of contact. Most faults resolved remotely, on-site engineers when a visit is needed.

We survey the camera locations and the routes between them, then send a written proposal within 5 working days. No upfront cost.
How much bandwidth does a CCTV camera need?
It depends on resolution, frame rate and how the stream is compressed — a single HD camera is modest, a hundred of them recording continuously is not. We size against the camera list and the recording policy, then commit that capacity so the total does not have to compete with anything else on site.
Do you supply the cameras and recorders?
No. Cameras, recorders, storage and viewing software stay with you or your CCTV vendor. I-ON provides the connectivity underneath: the links, the committed bandwidth and the uptime. That keeps one company answerable for the network without touching what is on it.
Should CCTV run on the same network as the office computers?
No. Cameras and recorders are among the easiest devices on a site to compromise and the least likely to be updated. Camera traffic stays in its own lane, on a VLAN enforced at the switch and the edge router, so a breached camera stays where it began.
What connectivity does a Safe City deployment need?
Every camera location joined to the control room over links that hold at peak, sized for continuous recording rather than occasional viewing, with a second path where a feed cannot be allowed to stop. Uptime and restoration times are written into the contract, not left to best effort.
Can you connect cameras spread across a municipal footprint like NMMC?
Yes. Sites across wards, junctions and public buildings are joined into one managed network with a single policy and one point of contact, so a feed missing in one ward is not chased through three vendors. Capacity is committed per site and reported centrally.
What happens when the link to a camera drops?
Monitoring is 24×7, so we usually see it before the control room reports it. Most faults are traced and fixed remotely, with a mean remote fix of around 30 minutes, and on-site engineers come when it needs hands. Uptime is committed at 99.5%, with credit back if we miss it.
Can you work with the CCTV system we already have?
Yes, and most sites do. We survey where the cameras are, how they reach the recorder today and where the route is weak, then design the network around what is already installed. Nothing about your existing cameras or recording setup has to change.
How long does it take to get a surveillance network live?
We confirm serviceability at every address before committing to a date, usually the same day you send them. Most sites are live within the same week, with cabling phased so the shop floor, classes or trading hours are not interrupted. A written proposal follows within 5 working days of the survey.
