Case Study – Beau Rivage Resort and Casino
The Beau Rivage Resort & Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi is
one of the biggest business and gaming destinations
in North America. The original resort cost $800 million
to develop, and post-Katrina renovation cost another
$550 million. Part of that renovation included plans for
a state-of-the-art video surveillance infrastructure to
protect guests and assets.
Customer requirement:
Beau Rivage Resort and Casino needed a highly
reliable, fail-safe digital video surveillance solution that
could manage massive amounts of traffic on the
network and thousands of video streams for securing
the casino and protecting guests.
Equipment used:
• DGS-3324SR (24-Port 10/100/1000 Switch + 4
combo SFP, 10Gig Stacking)
• DEM-310GT (1000Base-LX Mini Gigabit Interface
Converter)
Selected features:
• Multicast Network Traffic and Fail-over Support to
manage massive amounts of traffic
• Highly reliable and scalable for 100% uptime
• End-To-End surveillance solution
Key Benefit:
The Honeywell/D-Link video surveillance solution
allows for easy expansion and is extremely reliable.
Overall, Beau Rivage opted for the Honeywell/D-Link
solution because of performance and reliability.
The D-Link xStack DGS-3324 switches were a perfect solution for the
multicast network traffic and fail-over support required for the
surveillance system.
