Choosing the ideal surveillance networking system for hotels and accommodation facilities

By Denise De Albuquerque

As a hotel manager or property owner, ensuring safety and security within an accommodation facility is a top concern. Having an efficient surveillance system in place is imperative. However, finding the right surveillance solution might be challenging, especially when catering to multi-storey, multi-room buildings dealing with network connectivity issues.

The challenges of traditional surveillance networking systems

Traditional network systems usually come with a few downsides, especially when deployed in multi-storey or multi-room buildings such as hotels:

Dead spots: Signal strength might be weak in certain areas, leading to blind spots.

Blockages: Walls and other building materials can interfere with signal transmission, causing a loss of connectivity and reduced video quality in some areas.

Wiring and cabling: Traditional networking requires more cables, electric wires and power adapters to support data and power transmission. More wires mean more mess. The location of power outlets also plays a critical role in limiting your options for surveillance system placement.

Choosing the ideal surveillance networking system

To ensure seamless surveillance coverage across your facility, it's essential to consider four specific factors:

Cost: Look for a cost-effective solution that fits your budget without compromising quality.

Scalability: Your chosen networking system should be easy to scale as your facility expands.

Reliability: A robust surveillance network should be capable of providing continuous video feed regardless of network issues.

Security: Your system should employ stringent security measures to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access.

Cloud-based surveillance solutions provide increased flexibility and resilience, enabling you to overcome many challenges associated with traditional surveillance systems. Some key benefits include the following:

  • Centralized monitoring
  • Remote access and control of security cameras
  • Easy updates and upgrades
