Anixter, Axis Communications, CommScope, Firetide, OnSSI, and S2 Security Offer a Powerful Integrated Physical Security Solution

I spent some time a few weeks ago with Anixter, Axis Communications, OnSSI, CommscopeFiretide and S2 Security.  The meeting was sponsored by Anixter reviewing a case study from a large pharmaceutical corporation based in the Midwest.  The presenters reviewed the scope of work and solutions including:

  •          Upgrading the Infrastructure
  •          Extending the Network
  •          Selecting the Cameras
  •          Managing the Video
  •          Integrating Access Control
  •          And Deployment

The benefits to the end-user were explained as:

  •          Faster response times and easier implementation of security procedures
  •          Wider access to multiple sites with stricter access to sensitive areas
  •          Intuitive, centralized security management system
  •          Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)

All of the attendees also received a nice 1GB thumb drive with all the information from the presentation and from each of the vendors.  Also, the lunch was great! 

Because of my national accounts work, I was very familiar with all of the vendors except for S2 Security.  S2, headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts demonstrated their 100% browser-based, enterprise security solution network appliance architecture.   This solution leverages the power of IP networking technology, open systems and current IT practice delivering the end-user an unprecedented level of control over physical security.

If you would like to discuss this type of solution for your organization, please contact me at your convenience.
