PoE budgets that do not add up
Cameras specified at full draw exceed the switch budget on the longest cable run, and the faults appear at commissioning.
For CCTV installers
The network, storage and power behind the cameras, supplied and staged like it matters.
A camera is only as good as the infrastructure behind it: PoE budgets, switching, storage retention, UPS runtime and remote access. When recordings gap or a site goes dark, the installer takes the call. YOT supplies and stages the infrastructure layer of surveillance estates, switching, storage, power and connectivity, so your installations record reliably and stay reachable.
Sound familiar?
The problems CCTV installers bring to us most often.
Storage sized by guesswork
Retention requirements are real, insurers and regulators ask for the footage, but storage is often sized on a hope.
Remote sites that go dark
A single consumer router between you and a remote NVR means truck rolls for faults that should be fixed remotely.
How YOT works with CCTV installers
Switching engineered for surveillance
PoE switching specified against actual camera draw and cable runs, configured and tested before dispatch through Plug n' Go.
Storage and NVR platforms sized to retention
Storage platforms specified against your retention requirement and camera count, with warranty and RMA handled through one partner.
Power protection and racks
UPS, PDUs and rack infrastructure from professional lines, built into documented assemblies that survive the site.
Resilient remote connectivity
Teltonika and Peplink cellular and SD-WAN connectivity for remote and temporary sites, so estates stay reachable without a fixed line.

Questions from CCTV installers
Can you size PoE switching for our camera count?
Yes. Share the camera schedule and cable runs and we will specify switching against actual PoE draw, then configure and test it before dispatch so commissioning is not the first test.
Do you supply NVRs and storage sized to retention requirements?
Yes. Storage and recording platforms are specified against your camera count, resolution and retention requirement, and supplied with warranty and RMA handled through YOT.
What about sites with no fixed internet line?
We supply Teltonika industrial cellular routers and Peplink SD-WAN for exactly this case, keeping remote and temporary surveillance sites reachable without a fixed line.
