IndigoVision's complete IP-CCTV solution was deployed during the Copa Telmex 2009 tennis tournament in Buenos Aires to provide security surveillance throughout the event. Copa Telmex is deployed during the Copa Telmex 2009 tennis tournament in Buenos Aires to provide security surveillance throughout the event. Copa Telmex is one of the most prestigious tennis tournaments in Latin America and is an ATP World Tour 250 series event. The competition is staged every year on clay courts at the 5,500 capacity Buenos Aires Lawn Tennis Club located in the Palermo area of Argentina's capital.
IP Video is an ideal CCTV solution for events of this type, where high-quality surveillance has to be quickly and cost-effectively installed just for the duration of the tournament. The distributed nature of Indigo Vision’s system allows any component to be installed anywhere on the network; this includes cameras, workstations and video recorders. This flexibility also allowed cameras to be easily repositioned around the venue as is often required during the event build-up. The IP-network was provided by Copa Telmex, the event's sponsors, and the IP Video system was installed by Indigo Vision’s local Partners Logicalis and Isikawa Electrónica.
"In the past the Tennis Club used analogue/DVR CCTV systems to provide surveillance coverage for the annual event," explained Diego Lorenzo, International Relations Manager for Logicalis. "Using Indigo Vision’s system significantly simplified installation and provided the organizers with a more flexible solution that delivered far superior video quality."
The event's security team used ‘Control Center,' Indigo Vision’s Security Management Software to view live and recorded video throughout the tournament. ‘Control Center' also provided the security team with a feature-rich set of utilities for searching and analyzing recorded video, allowing the operators to quickly respond to an incident.

Video from all cameras during the event was recorded on an Indigo Vision Windows-based Network Video Recorder (NVR) with 500GB of storage. Indigo Vision’s advanced compression technology and the use of innovative features such as Activity Control Framerate (ACF) reduced the amount of data required to transmit DVD-quality video across the network, thereby minimizing network bandwidth and NVR storage. |
