It’s important to also know the cost of installation, and the cost to service or upgrade a unit in the future.

A modular approach to camera design is necessary to reduce the installation costs and long-term maintenance of such cameras.

From combating terrorism to addressing cyber threats to maintaining public safety, public-private partnerships have the potential to boost security and emergency management programs.
