Case Study: Ballito Junction Regional Mall achieves enhanced security and rapid incident response with AxxonSoft's Axxon Next

Axxon Next protects Ballito Junction, one of the biggest shopping malls in Kwa-Zulu Natal

Ballito Junction Regional Mall, a major shopping centre on Kwa-Zulu Natal’s Dolphin Coast, needed a robust CCTV solution to combat petty and organised crime, secure parking areas, and ensure rapid access to footage. AxxonSoft was engaged to supply its Axxon Next VMS (Axxon Next 4.0 Professional) paired with high‑quality megapixel, panoramic and PTZ cameras to meet the mall’s demands for facial detection, easy PTZ control and operator-friendly workflows.

AxxonSoft deployed Axxon Next across 176 active channels on a single CAPSULE DR2460 server, integrating multiple camera brands, panomorph digital PTZ views, analytics (line‑crossing alarms) and operator stations with 16 monitors. The solution gave security teams—and SAPS during a tense opening‑day protest—real‑time, easy access to footage; no injuries or violent incidents were reported and all property damage was recorded. The system improved situational awareness, simplified operator tasks and delivered measurable coverage and monitoring capacity.
