Case Study: Connetquot Central School System achieves faster emergency response and a 60% reduction in vandalism with Axis Communications network video surveillance

Connetquot Central School System uses Axis network video technology to link campus security across Islip district

Connetquot Central School System in Islip, New York, needed a district-wide, 24/7 surveillance capability after a serious security incident, including the ability to give Suffolk County Police temporary camera access during emergencies. To modernize and network-enable its existing analog infrastructure the district turned to Axis Communications’ network video technology, using Axis network cameras and AXIS video encoders as core components of the upgrade.

Axis Communications’ technology—deployed by A+ Technology Solutions and integrated with IPVideo’s DynaView and ISONAS access control—digitized 64 analog cameras, added high-resolution Axis network cameras, and extended coverage to remote athletic fields via wireless links. The Axis-based system enabled central live monitoring and mobile viewing, sped incident identification (minutes to identify suspects), reduced after-hours patrols and investigation time, and produced a measurable 60% reduction in vandalism district-wide.
