Bosch Demonstrates Integrated Security and Communications Solutions at ASIS 2016

At ASIS 2016 in Orlando, Florida, Bosch highlights how integrated systems provide powerful solutions for common security concerns while reducing cost and complexity for end users. The interactive display featuring the company's latest products and systems demonstrates how to protect sensitive areas, manage video and security data, automate announcements and alerts, and enhance security around the clock. 

 

Attendees will learn how Bosch's G Series Control Panels enhance facility security with intrusion detection, access control and IP camera integration through the Bosch Video Management System. Leveraging the full capabilities of G Series systems enables users to automate functions for simplified operation. For example, by presenting access control credentials, authorized personnel can automatically unlock doors, disarm the intrusion detection system and turn on the lights at a facility.

 

Integrating the G Series Control Panels with Bosch IP cameras and the PAVIRO Public Address System provides added protection of sensitive areas, such as locations with high value assets. Requiring dual authentication to disarm an area and combining that technology with video analytics and automated audio announcements maximizes security for high risk locations. For example, it can allow security personnel to be notified if unauthorized individuals attempt to touch valuable assets and immediately trigger a pre-recorded audio announcement to alert the individuals that their actions are being monitored.

 

Audio integration is also beneficial for initiating pre-recorded messages based on security events. Activating an emergency pull station or pressing a wireless panic button can automatically trigger the public address system to play emergency instructions through a loudspeaker and notify facility personnel through two-way radios.

 

Monitoring security data is simplified through the DIVAR IP 3000 all-in-one video management system, which combines a network recorder, storage array, client workstation and integrated Bosch Video Management System software. With this solution, operators can view cameras, control panel and public address system status and events on a graphical map, as well as control streams and arm and disarm the panels via the Bosch Video Management System software. Authorized personnel can also view video remotely via mobile devices and tablets, anytime from anywhere.

 

To enhance security around the clock, central monitoring stations equipped with Cloud-based Monitoring Services from Bosch can monitor facilities via video for alarm verification. For example, if an emergency alarm is issued at a facility, Cloud-based Monitoring Services enables the central station to verify the alarm through live and recorded video. If there is a true emergency situation, the operator can dispatch local authorities and provide audio intervention as needed.

 

Customers can benefit from integrated solutions whether they choose a complete Bosch solution or software from another industry provider. Bosch IP cameras and control panels are compatible with a range of security software solutions from other industry providers.
