Solution to monitor legacy video hardware for central stations

Tampa, Florida (USA)

SureView Systems and HeiTel have entered into a strategic partnership to offer central stations a solution to monitor legacy video hardware, opening up additional sources of RMR opportunities.

Immix delivers a single platform to manage video surveillance/CCTV, intrusion, fire alarms, access control and VoIP audio.

SureView has worked with Heitel to build a seamless integration into their Video Gateway. The concept is simple, connect legacy CCTV systems into the HeiTel Video Gateway and then using Immix, the station monitors these system through a central monitoring interface.

"By combining Immix and the HeiTel Video Gateways we are able to break through the obstacles of obtaining RMR from legacy CCTV system without expensive integrations. Video Intervention is now available with any type of DVR or CCTV system" commented Dirk Ostermann, CEO, HeiTel USA.

The integration delivers alarm and pre-alarm images to Immix from any existing CCTV systems without interfacing to the existing DVR or VCR. The Video Gateway is designed to use existing DSL, 3G or even POTS lines to create an auto connect back to the central station. This auto connect functionality is called HTconnect and allows installers the ability to quickly bring an account online without the need to change firewall settings on the customer site or producing inbound traffic to the customer network.

"We are excited about the opportunity to work with HeiTel to offer our central station customers a new and innovative solution for their customers with existing legacy equipment. Customers often don't have the motivation or budget to upgrade all their security equipment to the latest and greatest IP standards. By integrating with the HeiTel Video Gateway we offer a solution for these customers to retain their existing equipment yet have a central station deliver the latest range of next generation video monitoring services" said Simon Morgan SureView's Technical Director for North America.

The HeiTel Video Gateway offers are a range of valuable add-ons including iPhone or Smart phone access to all connected cameras, two way audio, technical alerts for cameras out of focus, out of position or tampering.
