P&P Telecom design and implement highly effective surveillance systems. We have been successful in delivering advanced CCTV solutions to our clients in various industries such as banking, manufacturing, petrochemical, energy, telecommunications, and logistics.

In addition to using high quality products and strong technical background, we focus on educating our clients on what current technology can or cannot achieve. We use engineers (not sales) to thoroughly study our clients’ requirements and realistically design a solution for the requirements in which it will serve.

An effective CCTV system starts with good understanding of technology and design. This is what at least 98% of installed CCTV systems in Thailand including large enterprises and governments failed to achieve.

Industry Analysis

So many enterprises and government agencies faces problems related to ineffectiveness of CCTV systems. We find that the common technical problems are attributed to a combination of the following:

• Insufficient recorded image resolution or frame rate
• Poor image quality due to equipment quality (cameras, lens, cables, digital video recorders)
• Poor image quality due to equipment interference
• Improper understanding of day/night cameras
• Improper understanding of camera minimum lighting (LUX ) specifications
• Poor environmental lighting conditions (backlight / too dark)
• Poor camera placement
• Improper camera housing
• Insufficient image storage
• Frequent storage failure
• Frequent power adaptor failure
• Frequent camera failure
• Poor installation standards
• Software instability

Root Cause

• Performance specifications especially for CCTV and Optical Lens are described in quantitative terms (numbers), they do not translate into image quality. E.g., minimum illumination of 1 LUX doesn’t tell you what kind of image you will get at 1 LUX. Low quality products widely sold in open market exploit this by publishing high specifications. Low quality components also do not last.
• The most important part of a successful delivery of CCTV system is the Operational Requirements and Design Phase, unfortunately, most CCTV vendors lack the required fundamental knowledge to educate customers and design an effective CCTV system.
• Some customers do not allocate enough budgets to implement quality systems.
• CCTV vendor’s lack of commitment and responsibility

Case Study

22-Oct-2009, Parliament parking building (@ Dusit Zoo), a news reporter’s car was vandalized by what seemed to be intentional scratches by hard object. The suspect was captured on CCTV and the image shows a person that looks similar to one of the house representative wearing blue-green suit

The house representative in question argues that he has never worn such color. The security guard on-site later commented that the CCTV system installs produce images with incorrect colors by referring to recorded images of uniforms of security staffs also shows incorrect color.

There will be only few “CCTV professionals” in Thailand who can explain the fundamental concept of this phenomenon. The answer is that this camera was intentionally designed not to have IR cut filter to boost its low-light sensitivity. This is commonly done by Chinese & Taiwanese manufacturers to reduce costs, boast specifications, and increase sales. The ambient invisible Infrared radiation is picked up by camera sensor instead of being “blocked” away. The electronic circuit inside the camera interpreted this invisible light into arbitrary color by guessing.
