Every KBC Networks wireless system operates in the licence-free, 5GHz band and provides an Ethernet channel with MIMO technology and up to 1,3Gbps aggregate. It is supplied as one common unit for point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configurations with enhanced, now in a more compact size. A fully explosion proof wireless solution is also available.
We are willing to analyse the needs of your clients and to find the best wireless solution for each situation.
POWER SOLUTIONS
We offer some power solutions, PoE injectors and injector kits.
A Solar Power Kit is a clean, affordable, renewable solution that gives you reliable, 24/7 power for all types of equipment in any environment.

THE POWER OF
PARTNERSHIP
Case Studies
City surveillance against vandalism with KBC Networks’ wireless transmission system
The Challenge
The need arose when the city of Montebello (California) faced serious problems with vandalism and graffiti in its central business district and surrounding public parks. City officials feared that the vandalism was seriously damaging business activity as well as the quality of life for local residents and workers.
The Solution
To address the problem, it was decided that it was time to implement a video surveillance system. The city of Montebello needed more than a standard surveillance system. The goal was to develop a system with a special audio sensor that could detect the sound produced when the aerosol spray leaves the spray can, allowing the nearest camera to respond by focusing on the offender and generating a time and date stamped image of the offender.
Panama Surveillance System
The Challenge
The project required a high-quality, full-frame-rate CCTV system that would function country-wide. To establish the network connections, it was decided to utilise the public telecommunications channels. This meant that the system needed to work across multiple network platforms (MPLS, ADSL and Ethernet) spread throughout the country, and incorporate hundreds of nodes, which were already supporting high volumes of voice and data traffic. In addition, the integrator needed to be able to perform network maintenance and troubleshooting using their standard resources.
The Solution
The chief design consultant and the integrator decided that the best possible solution to optimize video compression and quality would employ Constrained Variable Bit Rate (CVBR). CVBR would ensure uniform usage of the network bandwidth, and allow the network load to be estimated at peak times.
Stability of video surveillance systems with KBC Networks Industrial Switches
The Challenge
The stability of video surveillance systems depends in part on the switches that interconnect cameras and recording systems. But when it comes to systems in unconditioned environments, the task of choosing the switch becomes more complicated and the number of suitable options on the market decreases considerably. For industrial and harsh environments, the first criterion to consider when choosing devices is their robustness.
The Solution
KBC Networks switches are reliable equipment, operating in the range of -40ºC to 75ºC, withstand vibration and humidity. In addition, they include a redundant power input and alarm output. Another advantage that facilitates its use in video surveillance systems are the PoE, PoE+ or PoE++ options, as well as its ability to manage jumbo frames, which provides video transmission in high resolution and 4K, which together provide great versatility when connecting PTZ cameras that currently exist in the market.
How to connect the latest IP camera models over a wired network without the need for a power supply
The Challenge
There are many coaxial and copper cable networks that can be used to connect IP devices, without the latter needing to be connected to the mains power supply. A good example is IP cameras that, through KBC Networks’ eCopperTM series devices, transmit high-resolution video signals to remote monitoring stations over already deployed networks, even using only two-wire copper cable. These devices are perfect for complex video surveillance networks and offer high performance and simple configuration.
The Solution
The twisted pair cables of the networks to be used can be of any category, with 1, 2 or 4 pairs of wires, and even alarm cables can be used. In the case of copper cable networks, apart from the PoE and PoE+ options, we also have the option of PoW (Power over Wire), while for coaxial cables the management can be done through PoC (Power over Coax or simultaneous transmission of power), so that the operator can change the power supply remotely.
ASFOM Selected for Airport Security System
The Challenge
The project required connectivity over two fibres in a
mission-critical situation to connect a centrally monitored system that uses multiple ‘tie lines’ with RS422,RS485 and RS232 data, and an IP connection to allow access from central control to the digital video recorders. The transmission was also required to carry the access control data and, in some cases, building management data. In addition, with each site within the airport having its own cross-point matrix switch, a control room and locally installed digital video recorders, the transmission system needed to be capable of handling broadcast quality video.
The Solution
Because of the requirement for future expansion and the restrictions faced, KBC ASFOM (Application Specific Fibre Optic Modem) equipment was installed. This gave the client the flexibility to configure the units exactly to the specification whilst allowing room for growth. The ASFOM solution has allowed multiple channels of real-time, high-quality video; uncompressed video; 100Mbps IP and a number of data channels (for access control, CCTV control and remote control) to be directly connected allowing the minimum of fibre to be used.
