SOLVEIL offers 720p megapixel resolution for detailed image capture and has a configurable frame rate of up to 15 fps. Its wireless design minimizes deployment time, reduces installation complexity and limits business disruption because there is no need for trenching. SOLVEIL also complies with global unlicensed open radio frequencies for reliable operation in a wide array of geographic areas.

“TEW Plus demonstrates unique capabilities that make it a well-chosen collaborator for our global strategy,” said Dave Tynan, vice president of Global Marketing and Sales. “The success of SOLVEIL depends not only on innovation and quality, but the expertise of our valued resellers. TEW Plus provides a high-level of technical expertise and support to its customers, it clearly understands the value wireless technology brings to its target markets, and is enthused to have the opportunity to bring SOLVEIL to its customer base.”
