"We were able to verify enhancements to the integration in our 4.1 release," said Roger Shuman, Marketing Manager for Exacq Technologies. "At the Arecont Vision Megalab, we were able to test our exacq Vision VMS servers with a multitude of camera options. Several Arecont Vision engineers were on hand for troubleshooting and debugging, making this a worthwhile experience for us at Exacq."

The MegaLab is part of Arecont Vision's Technology Partner Program, designed to further support partnerships between Arecont Vision and elite manufacturers through tighter integration, sales collaboration and joint marketing. The Technology Partner Program is open to companies that sell products that complement Arecont Vision's offerings, including video management software, analytics, servers, storage, wireless systems, structured cabling, optics, enclosures, switches and illumination.

The Megalab consists of a number of servers with hot-swappable hard drives connected to 64X load cameras and one of every model that Arecont Vision sells. There are also several open bays in the server rack to test appliance-based NVRs. "When premiere partners such as Exacq are able to take full advantage of the amenities of the Megalab, and leave with an expanded skill set for megapixel technology, it verifies the need for an open laboratory space of this nature," said Jason Schimpf, Partner Relations Manager, Arecont Vision. "Partner integration is paramount to the successful adoption of multi-megapixel cameras in a wide range of industries."
