Watch underwater activity in fish cages using IP cameras.
- Monitor above-water operations & ensure on-premises security.
- Gain direct access to sensory data from fish cages.
- Control farm systems & equipment from a central computer.
- Connect the onsite admin office & the farm network to the internet.
- Set up the infrastructure needed for on-premises voice communication.
The network topology may differ depending on the scenario, but the basics are as follows:
Typical fish farms have a central operations office, farming sites & ocean boats. Systems control & surveillance is done from the central office that houses the IT equipment. The central office base station communicates with the CPE found on each farming site. Onsite switches route traffic to & from the CPE & the various sensors, cameras & devices. Ocean boats can also be equipped with CPE, thus extending voice & other services. A trunk link allows for internet access throughout the entire fish farm network.
