Mathura CCTV Camera Project

As per the discussion held with Senthil sir on Thursday (23/04/2026), below I’m providing you with the detail requirement of the CCTV camera category, as well as components, Console room and Redundancy,  for Mathura under surveillance. I am requesting you to kindly explore it from your end. And also provide your observation for the same.

Note: - The details and data below are based on secondary data, and to the best of my knowledge.

Architecture Overview

• The Chain Approach: Because 21 km is a vast distance, the system works like a "relay race." Camera 22 sends data to Camera 21, which sends it to Camera 20, and so on, until it reaches your Console Room.
• The Console Room (Brain): Everything terminates here.  Server processes the heavy 4K video, the VMS organises the 22 feeds, and the Video Wall allows your operators to watch the entire 21 km stretch at once.
• The Power Factor: Since this covers a long distance, we have budgeted for Solar Power Kits. This is crucial if we cannot find a stable electricity connection every 1 km along the route.

Console Room

Grand Total (Field + Console Room)

• Field Setup (Cameras, Poles, Wireless, Solar): ₹24,71,000
• Console Room (Furniture, Servers, Displays, UPS): ₹11,75,000
• Total Capital Expenditure (CAPEX): ₹36,46,000

Note on "Hidden" Costs: For a 21 km project, we should also budget for a Local Authority Permit (if installing poles on public land) and an Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC), which typically costs about 10% of the hardware value per year to keep the sensors clean and the wireless links aligned.

Redundancy: Secondary Backup Server (often called a Failover Server)

In a high-stakes surveillance project covering 21 km, a Secondary Backup Server (often called a Failover Server) acts as an insurance policy. If primary server hardware fails, the backup takes over immediately so we don't lose sight of the field.

Cost & Requirement for Redundancy

Importance of Redundancy for a 21 km :

• Without Redundancy: If one server fails on any night, the entire 21 km stretch is "blind" until a technician arrives with spare parts on the next day or after 2 days. We have zero recordings of anything that happened during the weekend.
• With Redundancy: The system is "Self-Healing." We stay protected 24/7, and the technician can repair the broken primary server during normal business hours without any gap in security.

Thank You....
