Day 3: It's a Wrap
Steve, Tom, and Nick reflect on their ISC 2018 highlights, favorite technologies, and our Facebook LIVE broadcasts. Plus, you'll find a review of the highlights from ISC West 2018 outlined in videos and photos below.
Day 2 Review
Power Challenges for Hardened and Remote Network Switches Solved by Comnet
Guy Walker fills us in on how Comnet is solving one of the most challenging components of a hardened or remote network connection: power reliability and availability. Watch Guy's videos and learn more about Comnet solutions here.
Perimeter Nuisance Alarm Reduction by Southwest Microwave
Securing a perimeter can mean more than just adding a fence and surveillance cameras. Detecting a breach requires specialized equipment on or near the fence. However, there are numerous challenges in that environment which often lead to nuisance alarms. Tim and Jeff talk with Tom about how Southwest Microwave is unique in processing data gathered at the perimeter to ensure a secure perimeter. Southwest Microwave featured new solutions at ISC West this year including:
- Model 336-POE Microwave sensor
- New INTREPID / Genetec Security Center integration plugin…Just released!
- Next generation Alarm Monitoring and Control system, Perimeter Security Manager II
- MP II on Ameristar Impasse II rigid fencing
Learn more about best practices in perimeter intrusion detection here.
Lunch and Learn with Bosch
Guests at the day 2 lunch and learn session, IoT and Benefits from Integrated and Connected Solutions, were treated to a game show while they enjoyed lunch. Kudos to the Bosch marketing team on an educational, entertaining break from the norm.
New Entrance Control Solutions
When we speak of Orion Entrance Control, we talk about Made in the USA and "Custom is Standard," however, what the Orion team is thinking about it "what's the best solution for this application." They're always exploring new solutions for lobby entry control and this year's ISC West is no exception when it comes to them unveiling something new: check out their new OSDG (Orion Single Door Guard).
