Minsheng Bank installs a comprehensive security solution with Bosch technology

Bosch's security solution to China's Minsheng Bank integrates video surveillance, intruder detection, access control, public address and conference systems. All connected and operated through a centralized management platform.

Founded in 1996, China's Minsheng Bank is the country's largest financial institution and is mostly owned by non-governmental enterprises. Its headquarters are located in Shunyi New Town (Beijing), in a building of 809.371 square meters incorporating five towers. Each of them represents a separate building and required an integrated security solution for all offices.

Bosch Security Systems has provided an integrated security system for these offices comprising video surveillance, intrusion detection, access control, Public address and conference systems. All connected and operated by a central management platform.

One of the main challenges was to create a video surveillance solution comprising both analogue CCTV systems and IP-based cameras.

Bosch designed a comprehensive solution based on the BIS building integration system, which serves as a central management and integration platform for the different security solutions. At Misheng Bank, BIS is used to connect more than 100 access control systems, intrusion detection systems and 1.500 video cameras and also integrates voice evacuation system, the public address system and the conference system.

Two of the five towers use analogue CCTV, while the other towers are equipped with a digital solution, managed through Bosch's video management system (BVMS). Both video solutions can be integrated via BIS, so operators can call up a real-time monitoring screen of the IP system in the analog control room and vice versa.

The BIS is used to integrate five intrusion detection systems with more than 100 alarm zones and allows real-time verification using the video surveillance system.

Bosch's digital public address and voice evacuation systems have been installed to make announcements in normal operations and broadcast messages during emergencies. Also, several meeting rooms have been equipped with Bosch's DCN conferencing system to ensure smooth meetings and convenient wireless voting and simultaneous interpretation functions.

With the Bosch solution, Minsheng Bank can manage the security and communication systems of the five towers as if they were a single integrated solution, Increasing operability.
