Ness Ziona, a town in Israel, reportedly has chosen Radwin (News - Alert) systems for its flagship “Digital City” project, one of the first of its kind in the nation.

 

The aim of the Ness Ziona Digital City project is to enhance public safety and reduce crime by providing surveillance coverage of the city.

 

As part of the project, Radwin’s systems have been deployed in public areas and institutions where video cameras are installed. The systems transmit video in real-time from schools, community centers, shopping centers, public parks as well as busy traffic intersections back to the Ness Ziona’s central command and control center, which is also linked to a private security company that can provide immediate response when needed.

 

“Ness Ziona is turning the vision of Digital Cities into a reality. Thanks to the surveillance network that we have installed we are improving the safety and wellbeing of our residents,” said Tomer Tidhar, a Ness Ziona spokesperson.

 

Leadcom Integrated Solutions (News - Alert), a leading international provider of innovative telecommunication solutions, was in charge of the design and the successful deployment of the comprehensive video surveillance project.

 

Dr. Yoel Bar-Gil, Leadcom’s chief technical officer, said: “We selected Radwin’s solutions for video backhauling because they provide unsurpassed capacity and range as compared to other products we tested, and they are extremely fast and easy to deploy. Radwin’s systems transmit live video non-stop with very high quality. This project is so successful that Ness Ziona Municipality is looking to add additional systems in more public places such as museums and neighborhoods, and also add more applications on the same wireless network such as information kiosks and remote water meter reading.”

 

Roni Weinberg, Radwin’s chief executive officer, said: “Radwin’s wireless video surveillance network improves public safety, security and the well-being of residents in Ness Ziona. We are excited to play a key role in Ness Ziona’s vision, and look forward to working with the city in the future as they continue to add services that benefit the community.”
