Case Study: Plaza El Roble Mall achieves enhanced security and reliable digital surveillance with VIVOTEK FD7160

VIVOTEK FD7160 Puts Chile’s Mall Safety at Ease

Plaza El Roble Mall in Chillán, Chile, faced limitations with its legacy analogue surveillance and needed a robust, scalable IP-based solution to improve shopper safety and operational monitoring. VIVOTEK was chosen to upgrade the system using its FD7160 network dome cameras, in a project implemented with system integrator M y P Estrom.

VIVOTEK deployed an initial 60 FD7160 cameras (later expanded to more than 75), each 2MP flat-dome units built for public spaces with EN50155-class robustness, PoE power under UPS for outage resilience, and optical zoom for clearer images. The rollout included a hybrid topology and two QNAP servers with more than 12 TB each for digital backup; the result was higher-quality footage, continuous recording during power events, easier data management, and a measurable expansion from 60 to 75+ cameras—demonstrably improving mall security and operational transparency under VIVOTEK’s solution.
