Combining Nexus with NAV’s established integration business in the northeast region dramatically increases our engineering, project management, and other technical resources. We are also excited about the growth prospects for the combined service portfolio. Both businesses have earned service contracts with marquee clients in the corporate, financial, gaming, government, higher education and retail markets, and we believe we can share best practices to continue to improve and expand our service and support offering.”
  
Robert Biscardi, President of Nexus, will lead NAV’s commercial integration business in the Northeast. “This acquisition is great for our customers and employees,” said Biscardi. “The new business is able to offer our customers a total security technology and fire, life/safety solution. We can offer a full package that includes video, access control, fire protection, perimeter security, structured cabling, telephone, and audio/visual systems. I am certain that the combination of these two successful businesses will provide our customers with a unique offering in the marketplace”.

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.”
