Installation of Security Cameras

Room 007 is a certified testing center and had only 2 cameras for coverage, aside from that the 007 and 005 rooms house important workstations and network devices for the campus, external clients, and the server room. There was a serious need to monitor all the activities of 007 and 005. The project was to install POE cameras at strategic locations to monitor all entry and exits of server room, 007 and 005 as well as monitor the testers on test days

007 and 005 were successfully installed, but the server room has not been covered yet, foundations have however been set such that, whoever undertakes the project in the future would have no issues whatsoever.

Living Lab is a great class to gain experience that you can apply to the real world. The small class means there is more one-on-one time with the lab instructor. The Living Lab also lets you get your hands dirty with hardware and not just focus on exams and homework. I can apply what I learned in other classes to real-world scenarios.
