The ECF should be capable of connecting to installation-wide, information technology
systems. If no installation wide data cabling system exists, this capability can be
achieved through the use of the telephone system.
As discussed in the paragraph 6-10, to facilitate the installation of the electronic
systems, run spare duct bank and conduit in a similar manner to that shown in Figure 6-
7.
Provide telecommunications capability for all guard facilities. Each guard facility
N
should have provisions for connection to the installation wide computer network, as well
to a central server to be located in the gatehouse.
As a minimum, provide telecommunications to inspection areas and visitor's
AF
centers. Overwatch positions will have telecommunication capability if required by the
MAJCOM. Local Area Network (LAN) capability should be provided for inspection
areas, visitor's centers, and locations utilizing Smart Gate technology.

CLOSED CIRCUIT TELEVISION (CCTV)
ECFs should be equipped with a CCTV system. The system should be equipped with
digital video recording capability for 24 hours and 7 days a week operation. Camera(s)
should provide an overwatch perspective of ECF operations to include the access
control area, vehicle search areas, final denial barriers, and pedestrian access points.
Each inbound lane of traffic should be equipped with cameras capable of reading
license plates and viewing drivers in the identification check areas and search areas.
The CCTV system should be monitored in the gatehouse, inspection office, and the
Installation's Central Security Monitoring Station (MP Desk, 911 Desk, Installation
Emergency Operations Center (EOC), etc.).
6-13
WATER / WASTEWATER
Provide water and waste system service for general use and for the unisex restroom in
the gatehouse. If it is technically impossible or economically infeasible to provide these
utilities to an ECF due to site constraints, the installation may wave the requirement to
provide the water and waste utilities.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
There are several references that discuss site lighting for general security purposes and
entry control facilities (see Traffic Engineering and Highway Safety Bulletin: Traffic
Engineering for Better Gates, IESNA HB-9, and TM 5-811-1). As indicated in TM 5-
811-1, the quantity and quality of illumination will conform to the latest edition of the
IESNA HB-9, except as modified in this UFC. The design should also follow the
recommendations of IESNA G-1-03. Within the ECF, the lighting requirements vary
depending on the zone of the entry control point.
