Korenix JetNet 3705-24V, the 24V PoE Switch specifically designed for transportation surveillance, has been recently adopted in a bus surveillance system to increase the safety of the passengers. With the exclusive 24V PoE technology, JetNet 3705-24V simply connects the dots of the system as well as reduces its total cost. It overcomes the harsh condition on the moving vehicle and ensures network reliability by its rugged design and wide operating temperature. All these features make JetNet 3705-24V the best choice for IP surveillance on public vehicles.

Now surveillance is heading the way of IP which plays a gradually important role in video surveillance. Among all mobile video surveillance markets the bus market is the largest one.
The public transportation systems are the preferred targets for terrorists worldwide; any attack on a full of passengers target, especially like school-related target strikes into the heart of any society with unprecedented pain.The testimonies state that over 40% of international terrorist incidents focus on transportation systems and 40% of international mass transit attacks are targeting buses.

This triple threat of terrorist attacks, vandalisms and litigations has awakened governments and transport operators to tighten all aspects of security in nation’s transportation system. Therefore, more and more public transportation companies deploy IP video surveillance systems, providing a safer environment for their passengers. 

Taking into consideration this growing trend of bus surveillance market, Korenix Technology creates the successful IP surveillance system specifically designed for vehicle applications.

Bus surveillance, unlike other applications with available DC48V power input, has a different requirement, the DC24V power input. Therefore, the legacy solution to power 48V PoE cameras in their vehicles requires an extra power adapter for converting voltage from DC24V to DC48V. Usage of this additional device obviously increases the cost of the system while decreasing its efficiency.

To solve this issue of power conversion for a bus company and to lower the total construction cost, Korenix exclusively developed JetNet 3705-24V, the industrial-leading 24V PoE booster. It provides 4 PoE ports to power 4 PoE cameras in the bus and simultaneously to transmit the video images to the mobile NVR systems, RFID reader or wireless AP as the network surveillance center of vehicles.

Korenix JetBox 8210 is designed as a front-end communication computer with WinCE Operating System. Application developers easily use Windows integrated development environment to create their own programs according to various scenes of field applications. Developers get the benefits both from a general Windows compatible programming environment and a simplified embedded system of better monitoring control. With its front-end monitoring architecture as well as small volume, fan less design and capability to withstand a wide range of temperature, the all-in-one JetBox 8210 is suitable for deploying in transportation systems, industrial automations and other industrial severe environments.

Front-end monitoring system requirements
A front-end monitoring system requires fewer resources than general high-end monitoring system. It works as an intelligent agent and focuses on message communication between front-end machines and back-end technicians. Basically, it requires hard real-time function for monitoring the disorder of machine and networking ability such as Ethernet or other wireless networking for message transmission.

Windows CE.NET: Best fit for front-end control system
Although Windows 2000/ XP/ Vista are easy to be used and are familiar by end-users, they are also very complicated with many application programs included. Besides, the real time performance of the system is limited. Opposite to it, Windows CE.Net, designed to such monitoring system, contains complete characteristics of an embedded system and fits the front-end control requirement such as real time function, network and web service, or wireless networking ability.

Korenix JetBox 8210, a WinCE-based remote monitoring solution
The front-end monitoring architecture gives JetBox 8210 the flexibility to be used in many different markets, such as POS, banking, telecom, transportation, industrial automation, energy, power, military, and medical fields. Field site devices such as PLCs, sensors, meters, RFID readers…etc. can be connected to the JetBox 8210 through serial ports, USB ports, and DI/DO. This WinCE-based computer performs as an intelligent agent to monitor the status of field devices and transmit messages to back-end technicians through its dual Ethernet ports or USB wireless dongle while abnormities occur. Further, the JetBox 8210 with Modbus gateway function lets industrial automation developers consolidate field devices into SCADA system easily.
