Kern County

Digital Video Jail Surveillance Procurement

Annex A - Technical Specifications


Technical Requirements / Considerations

System Objectives

The purpose of the jail surveillance system is to provide a verifiably authentic video and audio record of recorded events within the Kern County CRF Jail facility. These events will be recorded using state of the art video and audio equipment as defined in the system specifications. The recorded products will be retained for twenty-five (25) months so that they can be reviewed and copied onto a media viewable by normal viewing devices found in any courtroom within the county.

4.  The Surveillance System shall operate 24 hours a day 365 days a year.

5.  The Surveillance System shall be capable of storing video products in active storage for 25 months. The preference of the county is to have as little manual intervention as possible, thus keeping all video/audio on active storage (tape is not acceptable).

6.  The Surveillance System shall be capable of synchronizing audio and video products associated with the same surveillance event.

7.  The Surveillance System shall be capable of providing two separate video streams from each IP camera. One video stream will be of a high resolution, one of a lower resolution.
