Located in the heart of Brussels, ULB is accessible to the public, i.e., vulnerable to risky situations, especially after business hours, and during evenings and weekends. This pioneer in the installation of emergency phones has made security on its campuses a strategic objective. To meet this objective, the University's security department installed a system to monitor and control access to restricted and critical areas (mainly buildings). As part of this plan, the ULB has placed cameras in strategic locations (including the pass-controlled doors to each building and at the emergency phones that were custom-designed for the University) that then send the images to a control center. At the time of the switch from analog to digital, the initial installation did not have the configuration flexibility of an IP system needed to meet the requirements set by the ULB.
