International. Milestone Systems will present this fall, at various trade shows, the new XProtect® 2014 access control module, a complementary product that allows you to easily integrate third-party access control systems with Milestone video surveillance solutions.
Milestone's XProtect access control module offers a novel and more efficient way to operate access control and video surveillance systems through a unified interface, the XProtect® Smart Client. The ability to connect video to access events greatly improves the speed and efficiency of investigations and incident responses.
Unified ease of use
By enabling the execution of key and most widely used access control functions as an integral part of the XProtect Smart Client interface, users of the XProtect 2014 access control module do not have to work with distinct and independent systems. This makes it possible to integrate different access control systems within the same XProtect installation of the client.
The XProtect Smart Client offers a consolidated interface for operating integrated access control systems with specialized functions such as:
- Efficiently monitor access events
- Manually support entry authorizations
- Conduct research on specific access points or cardholders
- Easily export video evidence
- Generate reports
The expansion of the integration features of the 2014 Milestone Integration Platform Software Development Kit (MIP SDK) is the factor that makes easy and flexible integration between third-party access control systems and Milestone's video management solutions possible.
"Thanks to the XProtect 2014 access control module, customers now have the freedom to choose from a wide range of access control providers, with the peace of mind that the system they choose will run smoothly with XProtect software," said Christian Bohn, vice president of marketing and corporate alliances at Milestone Systems. "Milestone partners benefit from a pre-integrated solution that only needs to be configured at the customer's premises, a quality that allows enormous time savings. And it's easy to integrate new third-party access control systems with the MIP SDK 2014. Milestone's partner ecosystem is responding very positively to these new possibilities: Axis, Bolid, Bosch Security Systems, IMRON, Isonas, Open Options, Paxton and countless major access control providers are working with the XProtect 2014 access control module, providing further proof of the level of acceptance in the industry of our open platform technology."
The XProtect 2014 access control module is compatible with:
XProtectCorporate®2014
XProtect® Expert 2014
XProtect® Enterprise 2014
XProtect® Professional 2014
XProtect® Express 2014
The XProtect 2014 access control module is available through all milestone business partners. Product demonstrations will also be held at ASIS (Milestone booth, #1043) and Security Essen (Hall 2, #216).
