Industry : Smart Move for Swift Security
Swift, the nationwide fire and security specialist, has selected Vista SmartTel as the key transmission platform for its new Video Receiving Centre, based at Salford, Greater Manchester. The Centre provides sophisticated 24/7 remote monitoring services for companies based throughout the UK. As part of a new initiative to boost remote monitoring, Swift will supply new users of the Centre with SmartTel transmission units free of charge. Swift’s Video Receiving Centre is staffed 24hrs a day, seven days a week. Duplicate, redundant systems ensure continuous monitoring in the unlikely event of a system failure.
"SmartTel is extremely effective and easy to use and available at a very affordable price. Perhaps most important of all, the software is able to control various domeand PTZ units and comes with twenty different telemetry protocols meaning that it is already compatible with the vast majority of end user installations. The adoption of remote monitoring can eliminate the need for manned guarding altogether. When integrated with audio and access control our VRC operators can communicate directly with intruders via the customer’s PA system or communicate directly with legitimate visitors, such as night time delivery drivers." Andy Carter, IT & Technical Director, Swift
Derek Ward, Group Sales and Marketing Director, Swift:
"Evidence of effective remote monitoring is becoming a requirement for insurance cover and police authorities are equally keen to know that alarm notifications are supported by visual evidence of an intrusion. We believe remote monitoring will become a standard requirement for most medium to large sized organisations in the future."
Vista SmartTel
SmartTel is a n innovativeproduct that facilitates the transmission of video images over ordinary telephone lines (PSTN), ISDN, TCP/IP (Broadband Internet), or GSM (mobile/wireless). When an alarm is triggered at a monitored site, SmartTel is automatically polled and video transmission started to provide visual evidence of intrusion. Operators can also ‘visit’ sites remotely as required.
Each installation of SmartTel’s SmartControl 4 receiver software can accommodate up to 2000 transmitters, receive images from up to four sites simultaneously and view live pictures in full, quad or 10 camera multi-screen modes, will archive all received pictures to the PC based receiver’s hard disk, provide an audit trail of all alarm calls and alert the user to an incoming alarm via the PC’s sound card.
Swift Fire & Security
Now in its 21st year, Swift Fire and Security is the country’s largest independent CCTV installer with a projected turnover for 2003-4 of £23m. http://www.swiftsecurity.com
