Web cams allow for the capture of customer images. Capturing pictures of your customers
allows for the quick identification of customers and reduces fraud. By installing a Web cam at
each workstation that is used to open new accounts, your employees will be able to quickly
capture pictures that will be incorporated into each customer’s electronic profile.
After a customer image has been captured, it may be displayed on any workstation in your bank.
Limits, such as a withdrawal over a designated amount, may also be set that will force the
display of a customer image.

The illustrations on the following pages represent sample configurations for the OS/390, AS/400
and UNIX host platforms.
The illustrations depict a sample, minimal LAN/WAN communication network setup using frame
relay to handle communication switching between the main bank and the remote branch
locations. Your bank’s configuration may differ, but should function similarly. It is important for
you to evaluate your peak transaction volumes and to discuss this issue with your preferred
network provider to establish line speeds.
You may use the following as a basic rule of measurement for WAN communications:
● Frame Relay: The data line speed requirement for the main location must be equal
to or greater than the total data line speeds of all the Remote Branch Offices.
Example
If there are four branches and each branch has a 256 Kbps
data line speed, the main location would need at least a 1024
Kbps data line speed. 4 Remote Branches x 256 Kbps = 1024
Kbps
● Frame Relay: There are different measurements for data line speed. Please be
aware of the following when contracting for data lines.
● Committed Information Rate (CIR): The minimum bandwidth that can be provided
by the Frame Relay network vendor. This is the most important rate when contracting
for data lines.
