Keeping a camera network alive in year two
What breaks first is not the sensor, and why maintenance decides whether the system survives.
Buying cameras is the easy part. Keeping them alive in month fourteen is the hard one.
What breaks first
Not the sensor: it is the mounts, the cabling and the power supply.
- Check the mounts every quarter
- Keep spare power supplies on site
A maintenance plan somebody signs is a plan that happens.
