Linq has been designed to be simple and easy to implement and works with both Altronix and other manufacturers’ IP and analogue products. It facilitates monitoring to minimize system downtime, and eliminate unnecessary service calls, which helps reduce total cost of ownership (TCO). Early intervention, system service and preventative maintenance can be handled expediently with a higher degree of accuracy increasing overall security. Integrators can expand their service offering and revenue stream using Linq as a source of recurring monthly revenue (RMR). Linq integrates seamlessly with IP surveillance and access control at single or multiple sites, making it ideal for multi-tenant, multi-user environments.

“Linq provides communications and management capabilities for power distribution and transmission devices previously not connected to the network,” said Alan Forman, President, Altronix Corporation. “Linq will significantly impact how integrators design and deploy networked systems, as well as how users manage their systems moving forward.”

All Linq enabled devices can be easily accessed for real-time status monitoring. When a condition is detected, Linq will report via email or SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) to designated parties. All events are stored in a detailed event log on a product by product basis.

Application programme interfaces (API) are available to integrate the Linq dashboard central management software with partnered systems solutions. This enables VMS and access control platforms to be easily integrated with Linq enabled devices onto a single platform for comprehensive system control, monitoring and diagnostics.
