In our apartment block, there are 10 buildings and we have a CCTV solution with a OFC backbone and switches placed in each building. There are cameras connected to these switches and we monitor them at our gate.
Over period of time security at each building has become redundant, but they have been kept in the lobby, to ensure timely knowledge of any lift break down or some fire alarm.
We would want these alarms when triggered(the hooter gets activated in the lobby) a similar alarm (sound or blinking alarm) gets activated in the gate area. Can we use the existing network as discussed in the first para, to transmit these alarms to the gate and the gatekeeper identify the place of the problem for time resolution?
Or is there a better cost effective solution?
Thanks and Regards,
