Indoor Workplace Surveillance: Ethernet Communication Solutions

Ethernet Communication for Indoor Workplace Surveillance

 A well-planned surveillance system improves workplace safety

According to a recent research report, one-third of our life time is spent in the workplace. This addresses the importance of workplace surveillance systems that not only protects assets but also people. As awareness of workplace security rises, demand for CCTVs and corresponding networks also increases.

Advantech provides three major solutions for workplace surveillance and network communication that help address wiring and transmission difficulties — office surveillance solutions, factory surveillance solutions, and parking lot surveillance solutions.

Which Surveillance Communication Solution You Need

Office Surveillance Solution

An office is often where confidential documents are stored. The primary goal of office surveillance is to grant accesses only to authorized staff. CCTV, door access control, auto alarm and reporting systems, RFID, and AI facial recognition are common solutions applied to office surveillance.


In this solution, Advantech demonstrates how wireless network communication can help build up a remote control and management surveillance solution with very little extra wiring effort. If your office cannot afford long downtimes or if you have only a little budget for network infrastructure upgrades, this wireless surveillance network solution is just right for you.

Features of Wireless Surveillance Network Communication Solutions

Dual SIM Card Slots

  • Advantech’s cellular router supports 2 x
    SIM card slots
  • Fulfills cross-country and multi-carrier communication needs




Dual-band Wi-Fi Connectivity

  • Supports 2.4/5 GHz dual-band Wi-Fi transmission
  • Helps operators prevent frequency band conflicts
  • Delivers stable high-performance Wi-Fi communication


System Diagram

Surveillance systems are an example of operations security solutions employed at government buildings and other facilities in order to keep assets, employees, and data safe. Security cameras provide both permanent security for fixed assets and temporary security for public areas, such as for monitoring crowds during events including speeches and parades. Nowadays, increasingly more people are looking for a high-mobility solution that allows for remote real-time monitoring on mobile phones.


The purpose of this project was to create a user-friendly real-time video surveillance system that supports remote monitoring on any authorized portable device (e.g., touch panel screens and mobile phones).

Factory Surveillance Solution

A factory is much bigger than an office, resulting in a much longer data transmission distance for surveillance and central management systems. How to efficiently connect all distributed CCTVs across the whole area without much downtime is critical for factory managers.


In this solution, Advantech offers two product lines for factory surveillance: PoE Ethernet switch and Ether-to-fiber media converter, simplifying wiring deployment on one hand and extending network coverage on the other. With the combination of PoE and fiber connectivity, managers can easily access any IP cameras at any corner without limitations.

Features of Long Distance Surveillance Network Communication Solution

Extend Network Coverage up to 80 km

  • No need to replace any existent devices
  • Extend transmission distances up to 80km
  • Free from electronic interference




Smart Wiring Options for Various Application NeedsNew Paragraph

Fiber-to-copper deployment

  • Good for point to point-to-point applications
  • Good for applications where fiber connectivity is already present


Copper-to-fiber-to-copper deployment

  • Good for control center
  • Good for applications with no fiber connectivity


Miniature and Reliable Ethernet-to-Fiber Solutions

  • Ultra-small industrial media converters measuring only 3.5 x 2 inches
  • Easy installation in any corner
  • Plug–and-play feature increases space and power usage efficiency


Power over Ethernet (PoE)

  • Flexibly install, power-up, and communicate with individual P.D. devices
  • Deliver power and data with one cable
  • Reduce maintenance costs and cable weigh



System Diagram

The manufacturer chose Advantech industrial media converter with LFPT. The compact converter includes two 10/100/1000 Mbps Power Over Ethernet (PoE) copper ports and an SFP (Small Form Pluggable) fiber port. Along with an Ethernet connection, each of the Ethernet ports provides up to 25 W to connected devices. That eliminated the need to run dedicated power lines out to the camera locations.




The SFP fiber ports support 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps, which future-proofs the installation. The factory only


requires 100 Mbps connectivity to meet its current needs. But if — at a later date — they wish to upgrade the system to gigabit, the PoE+ Giga-MiniMc with LFPT easily transitions from Multi-mode to Single-mode fiber. The hot-swappable SFP transceiver is the only component that needs to be changed.

Parking Lot Surveillance Solution

Statistics shows 20% of car accidents were in parking lots or garages, which is about 50,000 car accidents per year. In such a narrow space with high car density, a 24/7 surveillance system is needed to protect both drivers, passengers as well as vehicles.


In this solution, Advantech offers VDLS & coaxial extenders for parking lot managers, aiming to provide a painless, seamless network infrastructure upgrade. With the VDSL extenders, managers can easily leverage existing VDSL or coaxial cables buried under ground. No extra digging is required, meaning no downtime.

Features of Coaxial and VDSL Surveillance Network Communication Solution

Long Reach Technology (VDSL)

  • Reaches remote places where PoE is unfeasible.
  • Allows for data transmission via twisted pair and coaxial cables.
  • Ideal for remote areas that require Internet service but cable rewiring and redeployment are difficult




Power over twisted pair and
coaxial cables

  • Carries Ethernet communication
  • Extends power serving distance via twisted pair and coaxial cables.
  • Free from the power barrier typical of wired systems.
  • Ideal for traditional parking lots, remote surveillance systems, isolated asset monitoring, and long-distance transportation routes



Enjoy Ethernet switch functionality

  • The VDSL SFP module series can be plugged into Advantech Ethernet switches
  • Brings the functionality of such switches to remote areas.
  • Realizes additional management and monitoring possibilities
  • Ideal for intelligent transportation systems as well as environment and energy industries.


System Diagram

Extending Ethernet to the gate house has been a timeconsuming and costly decision. By making better

use of existing wires and cables, Advantech helps

parking managers save time and money by offering the most cost-effective solution.


By installing a pair of Ethernet extenders—one at local side near a networked Ethernet switch, and one in the remote gate house—users can connect the Ethernet signal from both sides efficiently. The extenders enable managers to monitor the real-time situation at the gate house through devices connected to Ethernet.


With Advantech’s help, parking managers can remotely supervise their

gate houses without digging up concrete and asphalt.
