Provides a unified solution between access control and intrusion detection without requiring third-party hardware or integrations.

At ISC West 2023 on booth # 10037 i-PRO will introduce the latest release of its MonitorCast Access Control software. The new version adds Mercury-based intrusion detection to MonitorCast which provides a unified solution between access control and intrusion detection without requiring third-party hardware or integrations.

Adding an intrusion detection system (IDS) to access control allows users to control physical access to certain buildings or locations, while also monitoring these places as well. An IDS mimics a burglary system by monitoring entry points such as windows, doors, and more and alerts operators during forced entry, a broken window, or similar events.

?Intrusion detection is supported by other systems, but they typically rely on third-party hardware and integration to support the feature,? says Jason Garcia, Product Manager at i-PRO Americas Inc.

?MonitorCast uses the functionality within the Mercury SDK to utilize the existing supported hardware. Since third-party party hardware or software is not required, it simplifies design and implementation for both integrator and the end-user.? Source: i-pro.com
