Boat Videocontrol is a one hundred percent Spanish development, performed by TP-Link, which offers an economical and reliable alternative to current alarm systems based on presence sensors or magnetic detectors.

TP-Link has incorporated its 3G / 4G routing technology and 3G USB to develop this system that prevents and detects in real time any security incident in the boats of marinas and yacht clubs.

With more than 7.900 kilometers of coastline, security has become a vital issue for the port business in Spain. Boat Videocontrol allows you to monitor in real time the possible intrusions that occur in a boat, either by temperature changes inside or by movement.

Once the intrusion is detected, the system, which is connected via mobile Internet to the Port Control Center, sends a warning in the form of an image through VPN so that the service personnel can act immediately by automatically discriminating false alerts from a real intrusion.

It has an IP camera with dual technology volumetric sensor, Specially prepared for this system, a voltage stabilizer and regulator and TP-Link 3G/4G wireless connectivity devices, in which the SIM card is inserted, which allows encrypted sending of images to the central via a VPN.

For its part, the receiving system consists of a PC with specific software to receive video signals in real time, a TP-Link MR200 router and a tablet with specific software for the security guard to receive email alerts, in the form of a photo, in real time.

Archer MR200 router offers stable wireless coverage and excellent speed thanks to 802.11 Ac, which supports speeds up to 300 Mbps in the 2,4 GHz and 433 in the band of 5 Ghz.

This router supports both 4G LTE broadband connection and traditional ADSL cable connection thanks to the 4 LAN ports and the built-in WAN port, enabling the user the ability to choose the type of connection to use. This flexibility is especially useful in areas where there is 4G mobile broadband connectivity but no direct cable/DSL connection.. It is also possible to have a real backup connection in order to be always connected.
