two Transportation Security Administration checkpoints, U.S. Customs and Border Protection areas, an eight-story garage with room for nearly 6,000 vehicles, and more than a dozen stores and restaurants.


As the seventh-busiest airport in the United States, McCarran provides video access to multiple agencies and groups using Endura permission settings and the system’s ability to accept unlimited user profiles. Cameras, network video recorders and storage devices all work together to provide the level of security needed across the Terminal 3 complex.


“Not all groups are authorized to view all cameras so the permission settings allow our security division to establish many different levels of access,” Bourgon said.


The Terminal 3 expansion more than doubled the amount of cameras throughout the airport, making it more difficult to determine the location of individual cameras. But using the Endura Mapping application, McCarran was able to integrate the system with its extensive geographical information system maps, which created easy reference points for locating cameras.


“This has greatly enhanced our system,” Bourgon said. “Users can pull up a map of an area at the airport and visibly see all the cameras in that area. They can then click on a camera and instantly see the view.”


Scalable solution allows for low cost expansion McCarran’s Endura system can scale to thousands of cameras so the accommodation of additional cameras for Terminal 3 was a simple task.With the addition of high-definition IP cameras, McCarran is able to secure the clear images and detailed views it requires. The Endura system is also integrated with its automated tram system that operates between terminals and satellite gates, as well as its physical access control system.

The Department of Aviation handled the configuration and integration of the Terminal 3 expansion with its existing Endura equipment, while the new Spectra and Sarix cameras were installed by multiple entities. “This was a huge cost savings and provided a big benefit to the airport,” Bourgon said.


Bourgon said they are constantly looking to expand and enhance the airport’s video security system and are planning to add another 150 cameras in the near future. They also plan to swap out older analog cameras and systematically change them out to take advantage of the quality and benefits of Sarix and Spectra IP cameras.


Cameras, network video recorders and storage devices all work together to provide the level of security needed across the Terminal 3 complex.
