Dahua Technology, the Chinese manufacturer of video surveillance products based in Hangzhou, has provided its patented HDCVI solution to secure a hypermarket in Muscat, Oman.
Lulu Hypermarket is a retail chain and started by Lulu Group International in 2000. It has over 30,000 employees. Lulu as one of the largest retail chains in Asia has 115 outlets in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and one in Kochi, Kerala, India.
Dahua provided its HDCVI technology to secure the Muscat branch with work by its system integrator China Communications Services. This is the first time that Dahua and China Communications Services have worked on an entire CCTV project.
Lulu mainly had fitted Dahua’s HDCVI Professional series products, including cameras, digital recorders, video management software, IP storage and video wall for viewing. Around 250 HDCVI cameras, including bullet, dome and PTZ, were provided. A video wall display unit was used in the control centre and IP SAN storage devices are used to meet 90 days recording requirements.
The HDCVI Professional series adopts the patented DH5000 chipset and CMOS sensor. The camera according to its makers retains the ease-of-use of an analogue system while offering up to 1080P HD video output. It’s suitable the makers say for such small-and medium scale applications as airports, hospitals, schools, hotels and banks.
Rio Mao, Sales Director of APAC at Dahua Technology, said: “HDCVI is Dahua patented technology featuring HD analogue video transmission over coaxial cable, allowing reliable long-distance HD transmission at lower cost. As for the Lulu Hypermarket, we provided our HDCVI professional series products to protect the whole market. Dahua appreciated the teamwork with China Communications Services, which made the project successful and was happily accepted by Lulu Hypermarket. We are obviously looking for further cooperation with China Communications Services for more projects”
Zhu Linghua, Manager of Overseas Department at China Communications Services, said: “We really appreciate this great support from Dahua, and we have more confidence to work with Dahua together in the whole Middle East market. I believe we can achieve more mutually beneficial project starts from this successful case, and continue cooperation with each other in the near future.”
