Situated by the Congo airport, sits President Pavilion. This hotel has VIPs from all over the world stay with them. The MESSOA Speed Dome and 2MP IP cameras have been chosen to protect the Presidential Pavilion.

Tight security at all points

Guest security was of the utmost importance. A guard station checked every vehicle that entered through the gate. With such a high emphasis on security, only the cutting edge in surveillance security would do. That's the reason Democratic Republic of Congo government chose to use MESSOA IP security cameras. High quality indoor and outdoor IP cameras were both required.

The MESSOA NCR870 IP camera and SDS750PRO speed dome were chosen to secure the outside perimeter

The MESSOA NCR870 cameras were installed outside. The NCR870 was chosen because the camera is a ready to go out the box infrared (IR) camera that is able to see even in total darkness. 24 high quality IR illuminators built around the lens reveal crystal clear pictures even in the darkest night as far as 25 meters (82 ft). With IP67-rated all-weatherproof, aluminum casing, the NCR870 ensures reliable operation in any environment. This camera proved ideal for the hot Congo weather.

The MESSOA SDS750PRO cameras were installed outside

The SDS750PRO is a speed dome security camera with low lux capabilities. A Sony EXview CCD, 128X Wide Dynamic Range and Day/Night function with ICR ensures 24 hour monitoring in even the most difficult conditions. An LED Illuminator was added for long distance illumination of up to 160 meters (525 ft.).

The MESSOA total IP solution with NDF820 and NDF831 were installed inside

The MESSOA IP D/N Vandal IP Dome cameras -NDF820 were placed throughout the inside of the building. The NDF820 IP camera is a cost-effective full HD camera designed to show extremely detailed images. It features Lumii™ technology that significantly increases light sensitivity to deliver crisp image in the dark. Motion detection and day and night functionality ensures that all visitors can be recorded at any time.

The MESSOA NDF831 IP Dome cameras with WDR and ePTZ was also installed at the entrance. The premium NDF831 is a cutting edge 1080p camera equipped with mechanical (ICR) day/night switch for 24/7 surveillance. As part of MESSOA MegaSmart™ IP products family, the NDF831 features intelligent detection capabilities including motion, audio, blur and network disconnection detection. Completely vandal-proof and IP67 water-proof, along with an optional heater, the NDF831 can withstand even the harshest of conditions.

Security and government officials have been pleased

Speaking from the main control room, a security official who did not wish to be identified said that these new cameras were unlike any he had seen before. Pictures were sharp and the features were helpful. Smiling, he said this would make his job just a little bit easier.
