How Integrated security works for your business.

Mike Gillespie explains how integrated security can be much more than just a security system. ROI is a crucial consideration when deciding what systems to purchase and Mike explains all the factors that could see a ROI on an integrated security package sooner rather than later.

As the video explains integrated security can give you so much more than just CCTV images. Integrated security is about using the CCTV and Access control systems to give the end user more information about his business , how he can improve the way the business operates and how he can adjust his business model based information that an integrated security system can give you.

So take a few a minutes to listen to the whole video, it is impressive how Mike talks about all the benefits and turns and integrated security solution from what some may consider an unnecessary cost into a positive must for the end users.

The integrated security solution works using the Samsung SRD series DVR’s together with the SAMS software enabling visual verification of access into secure or sensitive restricted areas. The SAMS software can automatically search for any SRD series DVR’s on the LAN and once a SRD DVR is added then cameras can be added using the graphical map giving a clear overview of the site in its entirety. Any event that causes an alarm condition can automatically be flagged to an operator together with a record of that event and its associated camera image. It is also possible to easily view retrospective events from the event list by a simple click and play option.

SAMS integrated security software is available in BASIC and PRO versions. The PRO version allowing the video integration.The software has the capability of handling up to 128,000 readers so linking video with access control has never been easier.

Black Hawk IR dome from 360 Vision

Answering the age old problem of how to illuminate PTZ dome pictures at night time, 360 Vision have announced the availability of their Black Hawk IR Dome range

Drawing on over 20 years of CCTV Manufacturing,  the 360 Vision Technology Black Hawk IR Dome with twin LED IR illuminators is available in a choice of either Cool Grey, White or Black.

Options include:-

  • Dual 830nM wide angle IR Lamps providing 100m of illumination
  • Sony Ex-View WDR Camera options in 18x, 26x and 36x zoom
  • Multi Protocol Integration
  • OSD
  • Motor Motion Design
  • High Quality Components
  • Intelligent Alarms
  • Creative Privacy Zones
  • True Day/Night performance
  • Picture Freeze and Fast Shutter

we certainly think this is a great addition to their range – domes have always suffered from a lack of travelling illumination as found on the older overt PTZ units.

we think that the Black Hawk is a great ‘in between’ product, sitting perfectly between their VisionDome and Predator range !

we hope to bring a review shortly of the claimed 100m IR range……
