Project Overview
Daniel Miret designed and deployed an advanced security system for a marina with unique connectivity challenges, including coverage for boat slips and high-end boat storage areas. The project required overcoming limitations in traditional internet access and establishing secure, high-speed site-to-site connectivity across various marina locations. Daniel used point-to-point technology and innovative design to create a reliable system that safeguarded the marina’s high-value assets and infrastructure.
Objectives
1. Comprehensive Security Coverage: Implement surveillance and access control for critical marina areas, including boat slips, high-end boat storage, docks, and parking zones.
2. Overcome Connectivity Barriers: Develop a network leveraging unconventional internet access points to ensure reliable communication across remote and waterfront locations.
3. Enable High-Speed Site-to-Site Connectivity: Utilize point-to-point technology to maintain secure, fast connections between different parts of the marina.
4. Ensure Environmental Resilience and Scalability: Design a system capable of withstanding waterfront conditions while remaining adaptable to future marina expansions.
Solution & Execution
Daniel’s approach combined strategic equipment placement with robust connectivity solutions, meeting the marina’s unique security needs. Key actions included:
1. Point-to-Point Connectivity Implementation: Established high-speed wireless links to connect remote marina areas, including boat slips and storage, to the central network, ensuring consistent connectivity despite limited traditional internet access.
2. Targeted Security Coverage for High-Value Areas: Deployed cameras and access control at boat slips and high-end storage areas to provide enhanced security for valuable assets, reducing risks of theft or damage.
3. Custom Network Design Using Redundancy: Adapted the network to work with unconventional internet access points, creating redundancies to prevent potential weak spots and maintain continuous security coverage.
4. Environmentally Durable Equipment Selection: Installed weather-resistant cameras and networking devices to withstand waterfront conditions like salt, humidity, and wind exposure, ensuring reliable operation over time.
5. Ongoing System Optimization: Conducted regular evaluations and adjustments to equipment placement, enhancing connectivity and security coverage for changing marina needs.
