Current ConditionsCurrently, MCC New York has two ninety six (96) channel DVR's which have failed repeatedly, leaving critical areas of the institution without video coverage. There are no OEM replacement parts available for purchase to repair the recorders. The current recorders use obsolete technology which cannot be upgraded without upgrading equipment. They are unsupportable, unreliable, and have exceeded their life expectancy. Cameras and recorders are an essential component which supports a safe and secure environment for both inmates and staff.
ProposalWe propose to hire a contractor to replace two existing ninety six (96) channel DVR's with a new three hundred fifty (350) channel NVR systems configured at 4CIF, 15FPS to RAID 6 array for 14 days, provide a redundant recorder in a Plus (1) one configuration, replace the existing AMS server and Decoder, install two hundred seventy two (272) cameras, and provide four (4) hours total of on-site training for operators and administrators on the latest software package.
