Basically it is a living compound with some big warehouses and office buildings. Many people are moving around in day time. In the night, small animals like cats keep moving inside the compound. 2 outsides of the compound are vacant free spaces/lands whereas 2 other sides have roads and occasional traffic keeps moving on the roads. The walls are nearly 2.5 meters high and 1 meter is barbed wire height over walls. The reason for using IP Cameras is that IT Dept is going to implement it:).

I have to secure an area which has the below specification. Wall1:400 meters Wall2:400 meters Wall3:300 meters Wall4:300 meters The area inside these walls also need to be monitored through IP Cameras. Also I have to make sure that if some intruder jumps into the compound, our control room gets notified. Day & night security is needed. There may be no electricity on the outside of the walls. Weather gets very hot here in summer. Right now it is 48 degree centigrade. Dust storms are common. Electricity fluctuations are also very common (10-20 fluctuations per day). What models of IP Cameras you will recommend? Do they need fiber optic? Should I use existing Ethernet or lay a separate LAN for these IP Cams?
