Pelco, AMAG Technology Partner To Integrate Digital Video, Access Control Systems

Pelco and AMAG Technology have partnered to create a complete product integration of video, access control, intrusion and visitor management, biometrics and other security and building management functions.

“This powerful integration will provide system operators with the capability to easily determine the appropriate response to unusual events or security threats,” saidTerry Carver, API Business Development Manager at Pelco. “Operators can view live and recorded video data simultaneously -- providing faster alarm response time and dispatch of security personnel to the alarm location.”

According to Carver, the Pelco DX8000 and DX8100 series of digital video recorders and AMAG’s Symmetry access control system now work together to provide a solution for the recording, storing and retrieval of video-based intrusion and access control events. The integration will also help improve operator efficiency and reduce the training needed to operate and maintain the security system.

The DX8100 series is expandable to meet future security requirements, according to Pelco management, and also includes a Windows XP embedded operating system and a full-screen playback mode that provides easy video review. It also provides unlimited connections for live view through a Web browser with a multicasting-enabled network.

“AMAG has many customers who have purchased or want to purchase the Pelco DX8100, yet want the power of the integration to AMAG’s Symmetry security management solution,” said Bob Sawyer, president of AMAG Technology. “This new integration gives customers what they’ve been asking for.”

    Snap One has announced its popular Luma x20 family of surveillance products now offers even greater security and privacy for home and business owners across the globe by giving them full control over integrators’ system access to view live and recorded video. According to Snap One Product Manager Derek Webb, the new “customer handoff” feature provides enhanced user control after initial installation, allowing the owners to have total privacy while also making it easy to reinstate integrator access when maintenance or assistance is required. This new feature is now available to all Luma x20 users globally. “The Luma x20 family of surveillance solutions provides excellent image and audio capture, and with the new customer handoff feature, it now offers absolute privacy for camera feeds and recordings,” Webb said. “With notifications and integrator access controlled through the powerful OvrC remote system management platform, it’s easy for integrators to give their clients full control of their footage and then to get temporary access from the client for any troubleshooting needs.”
