Industry
Warehousing & logistics
Loading docks, yard traffic, and the far corner of the building that Wi-Fi never reached. Cameras and network where inventory actually moves.
Representative site photo — dock, yard, and far corners that cable rarely reaches.
The warehouse is not one rectangle. Coverage has to follow the dock, the yard, and the gate.
A single NVR in the office does not see the rear loading lane, the trailer staging area, or the employee lot behind the building. Those shots usually need an honest path — cable where it is cheap, point-to-point where it is not.
We design for how the site runs: shift change, inbound and outbound, where forklifts actually travel, and which doors stay open. Not a camera on every corner — coverage that matches the operation.

Product lines we spec on these sites.
cnWave V5000
V5000
Point-to-multipoint hub on the building — distribution to several far drops.
G4 Pro bullet
UVC-G4-Pro
Exterior lot coverage — pair with AI Port or AI Key when the site needs real-time LPR or face on G4/G5.

What we specify
Design for how the site is used day to day.
- 01
Dock and yard coverage
Cameras on approaches, doors, and lanes — with storage and retention someone on site can actually use.
- 02
Building-to-yard backhaul
Cambium cnWave or ePMP when fiber is not going to the far gate or the secondary dock.
- 03
Office and IDF switching
Meraki, UniFi, or Cisco Small Business switching with PoE budgets that match the camera count — not a switch that runs out of ports at commissioning.
Related consulting: door access & intercom, networking & site links, camera systems.
ROI & efficiency
Warehousing and logistics ROI
Dock lanes, yards, and gates are where inventory actually moves — and where one prevented incident can cover the entire system.
- 01
Cargo and inventory theft
Facilities lose tens to hundreds of thousands per year to theft. AI-equipped coverage commonly reduces incidents 30% or more — and a single major cargo claim (often $200k+) can exceed the project cost.
- 02
Loading dock chain of custody
Cameras and LPR at gates and docks create records that stop false missing-shipment claims — inbound and outbound.
- 03
Process errors
Footage catches wrong picks and improper handling that cost more than external theft on many floors.
- 04
Safety and compliance
PPE zones and forklift paths on camera reduce OSHA investigation time and support safety programs without a separate analytics vendor.
- 05
Staff efficiency
Smart alerts replace constant human monitoring. Cutting false alarms alone frees meaningful staff time on large yards.
