CCTV & Physical Security
Physical security is the foundation that digital security builds on. If an attacker can walk into your server room, network security is irrelevant. Apisylux designs, supplies, and installs IP CCTV systems for UAE businesses — offices, warehouses, retail outlets, and multi-site estates. We work with enterprise-grade brands: Hikvision, Dahua, and Axis. Every installation includes camera placement design (minimising blind spots), structured cabling, NVR or cloud recording setup, mobile remote viewing, and motion-triggered alert configuration. As your IT infrastructure partner, we integrate CCTV into your wider network — dedicated VLAN, NVR connected to your TrueNAS or private server for local storage, and offsite replication.

Why Choose Our CCTV & Physical Security?
Experience the advantages of working with our expert team.
Professional Site Survey — No Blind Spots
Consumer CCTV installs often leave blind spots because cameras are placed for convenience rather than coverage. We conduct a blueprint-based site survey and model camera fields of view before a single cable is run — guaranteeing complete coverage of critical areas.
IP Cameras vs Analogue — Why It Matters
IP cameras connect over your network (PoE), deliver 4–8 MP resolution (vs 1–2 MP analogue), support advanced analytics (face detection, line crossing, vehicle recognition), and scale without running new coax cables. We exclusively install IP systems for future-proof quality.
Isolated CCTV VLAN — Security Best Practice
IoT cameras are among the most commonly exploited network devices. We place all cameras and NVRs on a dedicated VLAN with strict firewall rules — no camera can initiate connections to your internal network or the internet except for authorised cloud services. This is the correct way to deploy CCTV.
Extended Retention via TrueNAS Integration
Standard NVRs store 30–60 days of footage on internal drives. By pointing your NVR to a TrueNAS iSCSI LUN or SMB share, we can store 6–12 months of footage on cost-effective HDDs with ZFS data integrity — critical for insurance claims, audits, and investigations.
How We Work
Our proven process for delivering exceptional CCTV & physical security services.
Site Survey
We visit your premises with floor plans, measure camera fields of view, identify cable routes, power sources, and server room / rack location. We produce a camera placement plan and cable schedule before quoting.
System Design & Quotation
We specify camera models, NVR/DVR size, PoE switch, cabling, conduit, and accessories. We provide an itemised quotation with Hikvision, Dahua, or Axis products clearly listed.
Supply & Procurement
We source authorised branded hardware from UAE distributors — all genuine, under manufacturer warranty, with UAE-region firmware. No grey market hardware.
Installation & Cabling
Our engineers install cameras (wall/ceiling mount), run Cat6 PoE cabling in cable trays or conduit, terminate in a patch panel in the server room / comms cabinet, and connect to the PoE switch and NVR.
NVR Configuration & Testing
We configure the NVR: recording schedule, motion detection zones, retention period, storage health alerts, and remote access. We test each camera for image quality, night vision, and motion trigger accuracy.
Handover & Training
We install the mobile app on your devices, demonstrate live view and playback, show you how to export footage for incidents, and deliver an as-built drawing showing camera locations and NVR details.
