Insight RFP Response City of South Bend SBPD Body Camera / In Car Video Camera Project , . L Scq,)e of Work 1, 1 A, RequirefnentS' Meeting Specifications I_41:_ nsl ,_ ...... ght:' Body camera has the ability to offload video immediately to the in -Car Video Recorder via a secure Wi-Fi connection between the Officer and Vehicle, whenever the Body Camera is within Wii-Fi proximity to the vehicle, to prevent the need to return to the station to manually offload video. Response: Confirmed. Arbitrator BWC devices, provides flexible video file offload options including direct offload via Wi-Fi, USB or multi -bay clocking stations, as well as standard Micro-USB, through a workstation or other connected device, Arbitrator BWC devices do not transfer video to the VPU'. 2 The Body Camera and' In -Car video system has the ability to offload video directly to a Departmentally approved access point from the vehicle or the body camera via a secure wireless connection and without the need for a hard -wired connection, physical docking of the camera, separate storage device, or USB drive, Response ' �: Confirmed. Arbitrator BWC devices include built-in Wli-Fi capability, allowing automated offload when, in range of an access point. The devices will commiunicate with the video evidence server to optimize officer efficiency and reduce overtime associated with manual offloads. 3 Body camera has the option to offload video classified as 'high priority' immediately over a cellular network, either directly from the Body Camera, or via the Vehicle router, for immediate review and access by authorized parties within the Department Response: No. The Panasonic architecture design offers optimum bandwidth management of simultaneous ICV data transfers on SBPD's LAN/WAN infrastructure. This design, maximizes simultaneous offloading peaks and provides assurances that SBPD will be able to access critical ICV video data during initernet slow -downs or unplanned outages. Our preliminary recommendations are to utilize a SafeServ/UEMS central archive at the SBPD Headquarters with multi -site servers at remote locations. This can substantially improve network bandwidth speed and provide a layer of local disaster recovery based on the volume of data anticipated —which will be accumulated very quickly when managing the 25 Arbitrator 3600 In -Car Video systems SBPD currently deploys. 4 Body camera supports wireless software update and configuration rule software changes, where the operation and capabilities can be changed for one Body camera, a group of Cameras, or all cameras for the Department. Response: Confirmed. Arbitrator IBWC devices are managed by Panasonic's cost- effective SafeServ/UEMS—a scalable, flexible and robust video management software suite, The UEMS platform offers server scalability, flexible storage,, and secure access.
