Tavcom, the Hampshire-based security systems trainers, are using IDIS DirectIP full-HD CCTV to help train thousands of security professionals at the International Centre for Security and Safety (ICSS) at Dubai Police Academy, in Dubai.
With the ICSS and the Department of Protective Systems of Dubai Police (DPS), Tavcom tutors are using DirectIP to run Foundation and Advanced CCTV courses for local engineers. These courses enable the DPS to issue licences to those wishing to install and maintain electronic security systems.
With equipment from other manufacturers, Tavcom are using some 32 DirectIP one-megapixel and two-megapixel IP dome and box cameras, eight 16-channel network video recorders (NVRs) and IDIS Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) switches, all operated and managed through the intuitive IDIS Centre bundled video management software (VMS).
Mike Tennent at Tavcom said: “We are pleased to extend our partnership with IDIS into Dubai to cover this important training imitative, and help Tavcom raise standards with respect to CCTV in the United Arab Emirates. The DirectIP™ solution will help our students understand how to implement, operate and maintain fit-for-purpose surveillance systems.”
And Dr Albert Ryu, Vice President at IDIS, said: “By providing the DirectIP™ range to Tavcom in Middle East, we ensure our integration partners and end user customers have a local training partner and, in addition, start to build an infrastructure that supports the launch of DirectIP™ at Intersec as well as part of our growth strategy for the region.”
