The National Medical Commission (NMC) has issued guidelines for medical colleges on installing CCTV cameras and connecting their feeds to the NMC for monitoring purposes. Here’s a summary of the key points:
Camera and Recording Requirements:
- Minimum Resolution: At least 2K resolution cameras are required for most areas. Lecture halls specifically require 4K cameras.
- Storage: Medical colleges must have a Network Video Recorder (NVR) with at least 30 days of storage capacity for camera footage.
- Access for NMC: The NMC needs to be provided with login credentials to access and download recordings for the past 30 days.
Connectivity:
- Dedicated Internet: A dedicated MPLS/ILL internet connection with a minimum speed of 100 Mbps is mandatory.
- IP Addresses: Medical colleges are responsible for configuring cameras with their own IP addresses. The NMC will not provide an IP pool.
