Cloud Camera Solution Partners







Cloud Connectors/
Bridges
- Connect analog & legacy IP cameras to cloud VMS
- Enable phased upgrades with hybrid local + cloud recording
- Keep settings consistent across older and new cameras
Cloud Connectors / Bridges
Cloud connectors and bridges act as the secure link between site-level cameras and cloud video platforms. Deployed as on-premises appliances, they keep cameras off public networks while simplifying routing and firewall rules.
- Terminate camera and encoder streams locally, then establish encrypted outbound connections to the cloud VMS
- Support mixed fleets and phased upgrades by onboarding existing IP and encoded analog cameras
- Manage per-site bandwidth, stream quality, and failover behavior across all connected cameras
- Provide local buffering or hybrid recording during WAN interruptions, then sync video back to the cloud when connectivity returns
The result is a predictable, supportable path from diverse camera fleets to a single, centrally managed cloud video environment.

Why BTI vs. Single-Platform Cloud CCTV Vendors

BTI’s role is to design and support solution-driven cloud CCTV systems, not to push one vendor’s catalog.
Platform Choice, Not Platform Lock-In
- Supports multiple leading cloud and hybrid video platforms instead of a single ecosystem
- Selects platforms and architectures based on risk, compliance, and IT standards
- Reduces long-term lock-in and surprise renewal pricing by keeping options open
Integrated Security, Not Isolated Video
- Designs and supports cameras, access control, alarms, and intercoms as one system
- Aligns video, events, and identity so incidents can be investigated in context
- Integrates with existing on-premise systems to extend ROI before a full migration
Engineering-Led Deployment
- Uses BTI’s own licensed technicians instead of anonymous subcontractor networks
- Applies standardized design, wiring, and configuration practices across all sites
- Reduces mis-wiring, device failures, and downtime during and after deployment
How BTI Delivers Cloud-Based Physical Security

Strategy
BTI inventories existing cameras, recorders, and network capacity to see what can be reused and where upgrades are needed. We define site-level requirements for coverage, retention, bandwidth, and integrations.

Design
Security and IT engineers select the appropriate cloud VMS, connectors, and storage model for each site. A reference design and itemized proposal are produced, aligned with operational workflows and IT/compliance standards.

Implementation
BTI technicians install and configure cameras, cloud connectors, and supporting infrastructure using standardized build practices. Legacy DVR/NVR recording is migrated where needed, with cutover planned to minimize downtime & disruption.

Solution Delivered
Once the system is live, BTI provides training and documentation for security & IT teams. Ongoing support, monitoring, and management keep the cloud CCTV environment stable and aligned with evolving requirements.

FAQs
Can BTI support multiple locations or states under one cloud CCTV deployment?
Yes. BTI routinely designs cloud-based security camera systems for multi-site and multi-state operations. We standardize platforms, configurations, and naming conventions so security and IT teams can manage all locations from a central cloud VMS while still respecting site-specific policies and retention rules.
How does BTI involve our IT team in a cloud CCTV project?
IT is treated as a core stakeholder. Early in the project we review network design, VLANs, addressing, identity/SSO, logging, and change control expectations. Architecture, platform choice, and rollout plans for the cloud based CCTV system are documented and agreed with IT before deployment.
How is video secured in a BTI cloud-based security camera system?
We work with platforms that support encrypted streams, hardened cloud services, role-based access, SSO/MFA options, and detailed audit logs. BTI then aligns camera networks, firewall rules, and identity policies with your IT and compliance standards so the cloud CCTV deployment fits your existing security model.
Do we have to move everything to the cloud at once?
Not necessarily. BTI evaluates your current cameras, encoders, and NVRs and identifies what can be reused in a cloud based CCTV system. In many cases we use cloud connectors/bridges and hybrid designs so you can retain compatible devices while moving recording and management into a modern cloud based video surveillance system.
How do cloud based CCTV systems handle internet outages and limited bandwidth?
BTI designs around each site’s bandwidth and survivability requirements. Options include edge or local recording with scheduled cloud sync, selective streaming (primary/secondary streams), and “record-to-cloud” overlays for critical cameras. The goal is to maintain evidentiary video locally while still benefiting from centralized, cloud-based management.
