Achieving Real-time Monitoring and Better Yields in Modern Fish Farm

123

At a Glance

Global seafood demand has significantly increased over the past 5 decades, and this trend seems likely to continue. About 17% of the world’s animal protein intake comes from the ocean. Fishing companies are trying their best on the wild catch part to meet the soaring market demand for seafood, but the fact that it is getting more difficult to catch the same amount of fish as it did before is helping the aquaculture growth in both fish value and production along the recent years. Therefore, aquaculture companies optimize their yields by utilizing industrial networks to closely monitor multiple elements and find ways to improve the production process.

 

Modern fish farms, including sea-based and land-based, focus on advanced feeding systems, and intensive monitoring. Compared with traditional fish farms, the modern digitalized fish farms can achieve a better production rate as operators have a huge amount of data to do appetite analysis, biomass measurement, and other real-time monitoring followed by quick reaction. The underlying basis for such comprehensive applications is a reliable industrial networking structure, which provides a stable connection with redundancy between cages, barge boats, and the remote control center on land miles away.

 

System Requirements

  • Gigabit copper ports for the high-resolution video stream
  • At least 180W PoE power budget for 6 PD cameras
  • 2 Fiber ports for long-distance transmission to the barge boat and ring connection
  • Corrosion Protection coating for highly corrosive environment
  • Operating temperature up to 75°C
  • Limited space in the waterproof cabinet
  • CE, FCC, UL, ATEX, C1D2 Certifications for worldwide usage
