Apart from the integration of all 3 facilities into one centralized admin facility , the vast distances between the various access points and administrative centre would also provide a sizeable challenge , one that would be over come via the use of an optic fibre infrastructure and backbone along with the composition of highly reliable hardware peripherals.
Apart from other internally situated electronic peripherals the success of the installation would be gauged on the quality and reliability of the boom operators and biometric readers , the access perimeter alone would require control of over 10 access roads. After careful consideration, Mr Polglase decided to go with Centurion’s range of boom operators and Sagem’s biometric range of readers to complete the solution , a decision that will see the access control measures at the Pezula Golf Estate compliment the high standards associated with this internationally recognized destination.
