Aiphone IX Series Integration with Genetec™ Security Center

  • Oct 13, 2022

Aiphone Corporation pleased to announce that its IX Series intercoms are compatible with the Genetec™ Security Center, a unified IP security platform that provides users with a single interface between multiple security devices and their data.

This integration enables Aiphone IX Series customers to incorporate their video intercom systems as part of a larger unified security platform. Security Center, an open platform that integrates with more than 900 systems and sensors, provides enhanced systems management and integration between multiple security systems, including access control, video surveillance, and alarms.

With integration, video from Aiphone’s video intercoms is recorded within the Genetec Security Center, while also streaming live or viewed during an intercom call within the Sipelia Communication Module. Commercial property, business, school, and healthcare facility, security teams can easily keep a record of interactions between personnel and visitors when the IX Series intercom system is used to request entry.

“Our integration with Security Center and Sipelia gives our customers enhanced capabilities and broadens our collaboration with a trusted security solutions provider like Genetec,” said Brad Kamcheff, marketing manager, Aiphone Corporation. “Our customer’s want solutions with the ability to integrate many different devices—and teaming up with Genetec ensures this is possible.”

In addition to using the IX Series master stations, users can also interact with their intercom system using the Security Center client app, enabling them to answer video calls from virtually any location. Through the Security Center app, when a visitor approaches the intercom, a receptionist can trigger a door release, transfer, or rollover calls to an outside line. This will guarantee that a call is never missed, and that it will reach the correct person to verify someone’s identity before permitting him or her to enter.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
