Installation of a custom-tailored 750-camera intelligent digital
video management system in a new terminal. We also networked the
newly installed cameras both with one another as well as with
the some 700 cameras from the analog system in the old terminal

that allows each individual camera to be freely assigned to any
monitor in the system.

Emergency response centers for Finland
Sophisticated systems allow the country's 15 emergency response
centers (ERC) to serve as hubs for all incoming emergency calls
- an environment where reliability is crucial. What sets this
concept apart is that only a single telephone number brings
assistance from firefighters, police, emergency medical
services, crisis response, maritime rescue and other partners.
